Graham Simmons and our very own 2017 Lion James Haskell reunite to discuss the latest Lions lineup up against the mighty Invitational AUNZ in Adelaide. The lads dive into Andy Farrell’s selections, shuffling of the pack and the Lions 24-36 victory over the Brumbies. What’s key to improving the Lions breakdown? Which centre combo will make the first Test? Do the Wallabies have an ambush planned for the Lions? With Fin Smith at 10 and Owen Farrell on the bench, don't miss this crucial breakdown as the 2025 Lions era heats up!
