Borthwick would surely have just as much a chance as stoneman.He's on course for a third 1,000-run FC season in succession. Whether you rate him or you don't, that is an achievement that a lot of quality players will never match.
There are some players who don't have such a great average at FC level yet excel at international level - Vaughan is well documented as being one of these.
I'm not suggesting Stoneman is one of those, just that nobody will ever know unless he gets a go.
Based on his form over the last few seasons the least he deserves is a winter with the Lions IMO.
Are they touring this winter?
