About this episode
Alfie, Will and Alex are in Richmond as the British & Irish Lions squad meet for the first time since Andy Farrell named his touring party. So, why is Sione Tuipulotu set to be a tour favourite? Hear why Ollie Chessum is getting stick for his reaction to being named on the tour? And, what is the first Lions tour he remembers watching? Plus, Will and Alex chat to former England and British & Irish Lions prop Mako Vunipola about life playing for Vannes in France and his illustrious Lions career. The boys look back on the Premiership fixtures this week and ask whether Bath are coasting to the title, and update on some news about the Wallabies.
