|July 15, 2025
Ireland tight-head Clarkson will reinforce the front-row options for the first Test vs Wallabies along with Jamie, who got the call on Saturday after Cowan-Dickie suffered a suspected concussion in the 48-O win against the AUNZ XV in Adelaide
-
The British and Irish Lions added Ireland prop Tom Clarkson to their squad on Monday as cover for Saturday’s first Test against Australia in Brisbane and called up a trio of Scotland players for a tour match next week.
The 25-year-old Clarkson is flying in from Lisbon, where he played in the Ireland team that beat Portugal 106-7 on Saturday.
His call-up swells the Irish contingent in the Lions squad, under Ireland head coach Andy Farrell, to 18 players.
Scotland trio Rory Sutherland, Ewan Ashman and Darcy Graham will provide cover for the tour match against the First Nations and Pasifika XV in Melbourne next Tuesday, July 22.
All three started in Scotland's 29-14 defeat to Fiji in Suva at the weekend and are in New Zealand preparing for a match against Samoa in Auckland on Friday.
