HSBC Lions Monthly - Episode 2
Last month we featured the first in a series that will lead up to what is arguably the most anticipated rugby event of the year, the British & Irish Lions tour of Australia.
Each month HSBC will be bringing you updates and features as the excitement builds ahead of what some are calling a must win tour for the Lions, having not won a series since 1997.
In this month's Lions Monthly:
- Warren Gatland interview in Australia following the Lions Coaching Team announcement
- Former Wallaby utility back Joe Roff reminiscing about the 2001 Lions tour
- Behind-the-scenes Total Rugby chat with Brian O’Driscoll, including some Gavin Henson 'secrets'
- Jason Robinson teaching young people from the Prince’s Trust the benefits of playing rugby
Has your ideal Lions XV selection changed following the opening round of the Six Nations?

I'd like to see Croft get some more game time and Lawes to start a few. O'Brien is another I'd like to see continue his current form! Banging first round of the Six Nations!
