Lions 2013: back-row competition 'frightening' - Scott Quinnell

Sam Warburton, Toby Faletau and Justin Tipuric

Former Wales number eight Scott Quinnell says he does not envy back-row players awaiting news of British and Irish Lions selection on Tuesday.

Lions coach Warren Gatland is set to name a 37-man squad for the three-Test Tour of Australia in June.

Quinnell, who played three Tests for the Lions as they lost 2-1 to Australia in 2001, says competition for back-row places is intense.

"I wouldn't like to be a back-rower sitting at home now," said Quinnell.

"You would be recounting every time you missed a tackle - 'Was there a line-out I could have won">
