Itoje to captain as Lions ramp up Test prep
The Mercury
|July 01, 2025
MARO Itoje will captain a vastly changed British and Irish Lions for their second Australian match against the Reds, with head coach Andy Farrell expecting the clash to be “a big step up”.
-
Tour skipper Itoje takes the arm-band from hooker Dan Sheehan, who is rested for the match in Brisbane on Wednesday. Only fly-half Finn Russell has been retained from the starting XV that crushed Western Force 54-7 last weekend, a game that proved costly for veteran scrum-half Tomos Williams.
The Welshman hobbled off with a hamstring injury which has ruled him out of the rest of the nine-game tour. Scotland’s Ben White has been called up in his place with Ireland’s Jamison Gibson-Park making his Lions debut at scrum-half against the Reds.
