@gibbonrib I reckon these names are surely nailed on.
Owens (Wales)
Wyn Jones (Captain) (Wales)
Murray (Ireland)
North (Wales)
Rees- Zammitt (Wales)
Hogg (Scotland)Add just from Wales:
Williams (L)
Biggar
Davies x 2
FaletauLH Jones and Tipiric will be close.
Henshaw/Sexton/Furlong/Berne are nailed on.
Navidi has been a stand out too. Back row is going to be one hell of a tough call

@gibbonrib I guess if I was gonna put money on it, I'd drop Murray and North from my list.
Murray hasn't been that strong, but nor has any other 9. He's probably ahead of the others, but it'll be a close call. Similar with North, likely to get the nod because he's done well enough at 13, has a lot of strengths and Gatland knows him.
Owens - again probably the on form hooker, but not by a huge margin.
LRZ is a huge talent, just a judgement call about the level of experience, readiness, maybe defence.
Hogg should start. AWJ too as captain. Will be interesting to see if he plays 80 mins - he invariably does for Wales, and does it well.
-
@gibbonrib yeah I think Murray has been excellent this year - there's a huge, noticeable difference to Ireland with him on the field. I don't think any other "scrum half" has stood our as much as him.
And I'm about as far from a fan of Ireland as you can get.

Those do look like the runners and riders. Possibly Ben Youngs might get a look.

I was going to say, it's hard to pick a squad without knowing how many games will be played. That article suggests that the tour itinerary is not finalised either.
