Neither Owen Farrell nor Kyle Sinckler were selected to go on the British and Irish Lions tour to Australia this year, but this hasn't stopped either player from being involved.
The last time the British and Irish Lions travelled to Australia, they stopped off in Hong Kong on the way, facing the Barbarians for the first time since 1977.
Peter O’Mahony, Cian Healy and Conor Murray have confirmed that they will retire from Test rugby at the conclusion of Ireland's Six Nations campaign next month.
Conor Murray is wary of the Springboks ahead of the World Cup and said Ireland's excellent form will count for little at the global showpiece in France.
Ireland have been forced into a late change to their side to face Wales in the Six Nations as Conor Murray comes in for the injured Jamison Gibson-Park.
