Just seen on the Lions website that Mike Blair has been called up to replace Tomás O'Leary, thought they'd wait until the Quinlan hearing was done and go with a triple anouncement for him and Shanklin's place as well.
Not too happy with Blair, not surprised that he's gone for the more phsyical scrum half given that's what he'd gotten with O'Leary but a marked difference in form nonetheless. A good game against a second string Leinster side doesn't quite paper over the cracks of his Six Nations performances.
Given he's gone for Blair I'd be surprised to see another fly half being selected instead of Shanklin.
