It’s time for test rugby!
The first match between the Australian, the UK and Ireland Lions finally came here with two teams to face straight at Suncorp Stadium in Brisbane.
It took a long time for both sides. The Lions’ final tour to South Africa takes place under the Covid-19 clouds, with the Wallabies hoping for revenge in 2013, when they lost their series 2-1.
Once inside this, Andy Farrell’s side is a favorite from before the series and is a tag that you want players to hug.
However, he also warned that Australia would not take a step backwards, saying that tourists are not overconfident.
Both sides are concerned about injuries, with Blair Kinghorn and Mac Hansen coming out for the Lions and Wallabies have a lot of problems.
They lost flyhalf Noah Laurecio in a warm-up match against Fiji, but Rob Barrecini, Will Skeleton and Rangi Gleason are also missing due to Schmidt.
Anyway, it’s set to be an intriguing conflict. How is former rugby league star Joseph Oakso Suaari under the brightest light? Did Farrell correct his combination?
