# Rugby: Wallabies coach Joe Schmidt says he’s impressed with the depth of the British and Irish Lions’ squad for this year’s tour of Australia. Andy Farrell chose 15 Irish players and 13 from England, including captain Maro Itoje, in his touring group of 38 which will play three Tests against the Wallabies. Schmidt says he knows many of the players from his time as coach of Ireland. He is also very impressed with young England flanker Henry Pollock, who has only played 32-minutes of Test rugby.
