Farrell Makes Adjustments for the Third Lions Test against Australia

The British and Irish Lions coach, Andy Farrell, has made two changes to his starting lineup for the third test against Australia at Accor Stadium in Sydney, this Saturday. Second-row Ireland’s James Ryan joins captain Maro Itoje in the second row, while Scotland’s Blair Kinghorn has been named to replace Mack Hansen on the left wing.

We have put ourselves in a great position to finish this tour with our best performance to date and create our own part of history.
