Caelan Doris' injury throws Willis in British and Irish lion selection framework: Planet Rugby

Caelan Doris has seriously doubt about doing the British and Irish Lions tour to Australia after suffering a shoulder injury in the semi-finals in Investec Champions Cup against Northampton Saints.

Doris was not only the leader who tackled the team captain of the team for the three test games against the Wallabies, with his injury ahead of Andy Farrell forced a late rethink before Andy Farrell on Thursday.

Doris to miss the British and Irish Lions series

While Leinster is still confident that the injury is not as bad as it originally thought, the previous consensus is not positive.

Senior coach Jacques Nienaber fears the worst after Doris has left the place with an injury for the first time since his connected linen.

His gut feeling is that the Irish captain fails for a longer period of time, since he believes that it is a serious injury.

Sources near Leinster have confirmed Planet Rugby The current forecast is that Doris will exclude from the Lions tour from the Lions tour for four to six months and possibly even Ireland's international offices.

In the meantime, Lions boss Farrell plans the worst, and while Jack Willis' calls were deafening in the squad. Planet Rugby Sources have confirmed that Doris' injury has opened the selection door for his brother Tom Willis instead.

Tom Willis has been in Sterling for Saracen and England since his return with Bordeaux after the bankruptcy of wasps in Sterling, which has brought him a place on the plane to Australia.

The 26-year-old played with England in the Six Nations and impressed the Lions boss enough to be seen as a replacement by Doris. He started three times on the back of the Scrum for Steve Borthwick's team during the tournament and came from the bank in the first and last games against Ireland and Wales.

More options number eight

The English team -mate Ben Earl should also be included in the squad, but it is unclear whether Farrell sees him number eight or as an option as an option, especially after Doris' injury.

Willis would offer a similar threatening threat to the lions compared to that of the Ireland's skipper, since he heads the premier hip for paylines (93) and defender (78). It also offers a similar influence on breakdowns.

Other specialists number Eight, which will be in the course of the run, are Wales' Toulupe Faleau and Aaron Wainwright and Ireland's Jack Conan.

Scotland's Matt Forgerson and Jack Dempsey have been out of the way for the tour for Glasgow Warriors for some time, with their absence also supporting Willis's opportunities.

While the Saracen star is more able to play flank, his selection would be as a number eight.
