Dasher Daly times it just right once again
The Rugby Paper
|June 29, 2025
ELLIOT Daly has a knack of timing a run to peak form in a Lions year and has repeated the trick this year to be a tourist for the third time.
Daly skipped last summer's England tour to Japan and New Zealand to be at the birth of his daughter but his career has been reborn this year.
The versatile Saracens back missed the trip with Steve Borthwick’s side to support wife Michelle and new arrival Orla while the likes Tommy Freeman, Manny Feyi-Waboso, Henry Slade and George Furbank filled positions Daly could have played in.
Daly forced his way back into the England squad for the autumn internationals but did not get a game before resuming his Test career off the bench against France at Twickenhan, scoring the late winner in a dramatic 26-25 Six Nations victory.
The 32-year-old played five Tests, making 14 appearances in all, on Lions tours to New Zealand, in 2017, and South Africa four years later.
