Lions Australian Tour

[Mark Daniels]

The British and Irish Lions team to tour Australia was announced today!
Sadly no Jonny Wilkinson.!

Qantas seems to have been drumming up support for the Wallabies for a while now!!
This 737 livery was unveiled back in February - 100 days before the tour started!!

They have also been advertising this event on Australian television, displaying "The Wallabies" and a little boy singing the Australian National Anthem. This must be a pretty big event!

I think that their first test match will be on at 7pm (Australian Central Time (ACT)) on Saturday the 22nd of June. Good luck to both teams!

Should be good fun - always nice to have a bit of Australian / British rivalry
