Owen Farrell and his England team-mates Elliot Daly, Maro Itoje, Jamie George and Mako Vunipola flew to the island on Monday morning after helping Saracens regain their place in the top flight with another thumping win over Ealing.

Scotland fly-half Finn Russell has also flown into camp after his Racing 92 fell to La Rochelle in the top 14 semi-final on Friday night, lifting the number of players present to 33 from 37.

Twenty-four hours earlier, Bristol prop Kyle Sinckler and Sale flanker Tom Curry landed in Jersey after finishing in the losing side in the Premiership play-offs. The fans can also buy British and irish Lions vs Brave Blossoms tickets from our website.

The availability of Farrell and Russell gives the Lions a full complement of fly-halves, with Dan Biggar set to start as chief conductor against Japan in camp from the start. The Lions vs japan fans can also buy British and Irish Lions tickets from us.

Farrell or Russell will be needed for the bench, as will George who brings the number to two with Ken Owens available and Luke Cowan-Dickie still on Exeter duty. All Saracens players are 2017 Test Lions, Vunipola and Farrell deserve that distinction in 2013 too.

“We’d like to put together a full 37 as soon as possible, and it’s great that it’s finally happening,” defensive coach Steve Tandy said.

“Saracens have experience with the Lions tour, win European Cups and Premierships and know what it takes to connect the group. Everyone is excited to get them on the training field and into the group.”

Tandy, who delivered a clean bill of health ahead of tuesday’s announcement, denies that the Saracens team were undercooked after a season of struggles to advance to the Champions League.

“They enjoyed playing and had a bit of a rhythm. No doubt they’ll be ready. They also played in the Six Nations, so there’s no doubt they’ll be fully prepared to go out,” he said.

In addition to a replacement fly-half and hooker, Warren Gatland will call up players who have been in Jersey since last Sunday, when he names his first team for the 2021 tour to South Africa.
