  • IRB to punish Springboks' show of solidarity Rugby: The Springboks may have shown solidarity by wearing “Justice 4 Bakkies” armbands in support of the banned Bakkies Botha during the third and final Test against the British and Irish Lions, but the International Rugby Board (IRB) have since said they will issue misconduct charges against the South Africa Rugby Union.
  • Regrets, naturally, like, eh, losing, but lots to savour GERRY THORNLEY  concludes the Lions concept is well: it makes wanga, lots of it, for the four Home Unions, for the host country and for the players
  • Fitzpatrick backs Lions concept New Zealand great Sean Fitzpatrick claims the British and Irish Lions tours should be expanded not abandoned. It is 12 years since the Lions won a series, with their recent victory over South Africa in the final Test ending a credibility-damaging run of seven successive defeats but failing to curb speculation about the future of the brand.
