FINN RUSSELL’S Midas touch shows no sign of deserting him.
-
As the British & Irish Lions clinched the Test series here in dramatic fashion, Russell was grabbing the honours again.

But this one is extra-special after two false starts with the Lions — one in 2017, when he was a part-time replacement as a member of the ‘Geography Six’ in New Zealand, and another, when he was injured on the Covid-wrecked tour of South Africa and played only one Test.
