The British & Irish Lions are finally en route to New Zealand, bringing the eagerly-anticipated series against the All Blacks that little bit closer.
The Lions departed London on Monday and will touch down in New Zealand on Wednesday morning (NZT), before playing their first match of the tour against the New Zealand Barbarians on Saturday.
All Blacks coach Steve Hansen, meanwhile, will focus his attention on Round 15 of Super Rugby where players from all five New Zealand franchises will be in action.
It will be the last chance for players to impress Hansen before he names a 33-man squad next week.
But before Hansen reveals all, we want you to select the All Blacks' midfield pairing.
The back three has already been settled, with Julian Savea and Waisake Naholo voted in as the preferred choices to join Ben Smith at fullback. Israel Dagg was only slightly shaded by Naholo on the right wing, but the Crusaders veteran, who returned to action from injury on the weekend, is sure to be included in the extended Test squad.
As was the case with the wingers, Hansen has no shortage of centre options at his disposal, most of whom are capable of playing at both No.12 and No.13.
Thus, we want you to pick your preferred pairing by voting in the polls below and above.
