19 June on this day…
2001: BRITISH Lions suffered their first setback when they lost 28-25 to Aussie A, having scored 241 and conceded 24 in the opening three games. The trend continued in the Test series; the Lions went one up but lost. Will Greenwood (above) was on his second Lions tour but did not make his Test debut until the third, in New Zealand in 2005. He remains joint second in England’s try-scorers’ list with 31.
