AUSTRALIA V LIONS 11AM, SKY SPORTS

ANDY FARRELL has told his Lions they owe it to the travelling hordes to deliver in today's opening Test against Ausrtalia.
The Sea of Red has hit town in Brisbane in the past few days, with around 35,000 rugby union fans expected by kickoff.
Supporters were barred from travelling to South Africa in 2021 because of the pandemic and head coach Farrell, above, declared: "We want to see a performance that does everyone proud and when I say everyone, you're talking about thousands of people that are turning up.
"You're walking around town, you can already feel it heating up and it will only ramp up.
