Scottish players Rory Sutherland, Ewan Ashman, and Darcy Graham have been drafted in to join the British and Irish Lions squad in Australia.

Over the past few weeks, a 92-person team and 11,000 kilograms of equipment have travelled on an almost daily basis around Australia. It’s an expensive and physically demanding task for the British and Irish Lions, a once-in-four-year rugby union team comprising players from England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales.

Every four years, a British and Irish Lions tour is still seen by many as the peak of professional rugby, with the finest players from England, Scotland, Wales and Ireland joining forces.
