Pollock sets sights on Wallabies whitewash

The Lions enter the first Test bolstered by an eight-try demolition of an AUNZ Invitational XV, with Andy Farrell scheduled to name his team for the Brisbane opener on Thursday.

Farrell's tourists are strong favourites to win the series and Pollock, who is competing for a place on the bench at Suncorp Stadium, insisted they were aiming for greatness.

“We want to come here and be the best Lions team ever. We've been talking about that loads and 3-0 is definitely on the table,” Pollock said. “Whether you're playing or not playing in the Tests, we're all just trying to strive to be the best team we can and get that 3-0 win. If that’s playing or not playing, then I'll adjust and be the best teammate I can be.”
