This is very unfair on Farrell junior. He brings so much to the party. There's his superb tacking technique perfected by so many visits to tackle school. Then there's his total integrity highlighted by all those The League once known as the Premiership iership titles won without a shadow of scandal. What a marvellous ambassador he will be for the Lions!

Total Integrity!!! Was Farrell junior not the Saracens captain during the salary cap scandal which let to £5 million + fine and effective relegation to the Championship?  
Watch Out - The Scottish Phoenix Club is on the Up!!

Seven down one to go

I suspect that was an attempt at irony.
Though how Farrell can be blamed for the salary cap breaches is beyond me.

I suspect he's been brought in because there aren't many backs who have done Lions tours before.

M Smith, Russell, Aki, DVDM I think are the only ones.

Exactly. And of course the last tour wasn’t played in front of spectators; Aki has already talked about the massively higher scrutiny of this tour.
