The IRFU took to Twitter to call out BT Sport for a geographical error on their Lions graphics today,
.The broadcaster was crunching the numbers on the country-by-country breakdown of Lions call-ups, but managed to get their maps embarrassingly mixed up.
Instead of displaying 11 Irish players selected from the whole of Ireland, their map only showed the six counties of the North.
The Irish Rugby Twitter account was quick to notice…
We think you may have missed the point about Irish Rugby there lads. #BackToTheDrawingBoard

The post was deleted after that, and replaced by a more accurate graphic a few minutes later…
