Roberts raises questions over Lions' opening score
South Wales Evening Post
|July 29, 2025
JAMIE Roberts has moved to shift the spotlight away from Jac Morgan's clearout in the Lions' win over the Wallabies on Saturday towards a different 'potentially very dangerous act' in the same game.
-
But former Wales and Lions centre Roberts has shifted the focus away from Morgan and instead put the trackers on another controversial moment during the game - Dan Sheehan's try.
The Ireland hooker took a quick tap and dived over would-be Wallaby tacklers from short range to plonk down over the line for the Lions' first of the match, which immediately brought about protestations from the men in gold.
It triggered comparisons to Blair Murray against Scotland in the Six Nations earlier this year, when the Scarlets man was pinged for jumping out of a tackle on the way to a Wales try.
