British and Ireland Lions: Ronan O’Ara unveils the test team. Rugby Yonhap News

Ronan O’Ara, the third British and Irish Lions tourists, unveiled the first test XV in Australia and said it will leave the best player on the bench to end the same match as Dan Sheehan and TadHg Furlong.

Ogara, some Sky Sports’ The monopoly coverage of the Lions Tour this summer was a player on the 2001, 2005 and 2009 tours.

Fellow Sky Sports Analyst Ian McGyr (IAN) McGeeechan, Will Greenwood and Sam Warburton chose the Lions test side, and now La Rossella (LA Rochelle’s coach Orchelle coach O’Agara shook work with the left field.

Ronan O’ara’s British and Ireland Lions tests face to Australia.

British and Ireland Lions: 15 HUGO KEENAN, 14 TOMMY FREEMAN, 13 Huw Jones, 12 bundee Aki, 11 James Lowe, 10 FINN Russell, 9 Jamison Gibson-Park; 1 Ellis Genge, 2 Ronan Kelleher, 3 Will Stuart, 4 Maro ITOJE (C), 5 Joe McCarthy, 6 TadHg Beire, 7 Josh Van der Flier, 8 Jack Conan.

Replacement: 16 dan sheehan, 17 Andrew porter, 18 tadhg furlong, 19 james ryan, 20 ben earl, 21 henry pollock, 22 Alex Mitchell, 23 Owen Farrell.

“The first is where TadHg Furlong is and where Dan Sheehan is?” Oh said Sky Sports.

“Because I am the best in the world, I want to finish the game to know that the test game is generally won for the last 8 to 12 minutes because the team has little scores in the world.

“In that sense, I took that logic.

Dan Sheehan, TadHg Furlong and Owen Farrrell alleged that they will start at the first test of Australia.

“It can be clearly separated, but I prefer to finish with the strongest 15, but I can be 80 minutes, but there are small margins.

“Andrew Porter is an excellent loose hair. I think it’s a great area of power. I went familiarly in the back row (Ireland Trio Beire, Van Der Flier, confonan). Because I think I add it.

On the backline, I sent a lineup that was very similar to the previous choice with a big change in the backline. In the center, I was going with HUW Jones and Bundee Aki by mixing midfield pairing without going to all Scotland or all Ireland.

“From behind, it is very simple. There is a great debate about who plays 12 when Garry Ringrose is excluded from injury and 13 years old HUW Jones.”

“Do you have a Sione tuipulotu? Do you have Bundee Aki? You can go.

“You can go back and just go, I think AKI is the best in the world.

“He won the gain line and put the front five to the ball in the second stage. The game is much easier when the conflict wins.”

In terms of his tactics, I admit that there is a potential trap called Oga, and I can’t see Lions Director Andy Farrre going down the same way.

The Irish also said they would have selected 23 French -based players in Kyle Sinckler, Toulou, Jack Willis and Toulon.

“If Australia starts quickly and goes up to 10-0, you are coming, where are you going. Where is Furlong, Sheehan and Porter?

“Scrum dominance is generally the same as game dominance. Perhaps you can get an advantage in creating your MAULS. I’m particularly aware of Stewart and Ellis Zenji, but it looks very impressive as a player.

“Andy Farrre will not go with this, but after 43 minutes, if you look into someone’s eyes in the test game, I see Dan Sheehan coming. Imagine what’s happening in the opposite. Imagine seeing a loose head after 42 minutes. Imagine.

“Imagine that Ben Earl is carrying a ball. You need to know what the starter is when you divide 6-2.

Ben Earl said Lions praised support and made an impressive victory over Lions’ AUNZ XV.

“If Blair Kinghorn is possible, I would have gone 7-1 as I was able to cover NO 10 positions because I actually kicked Toulouse.

“If you choose a team, Jack Willis would have started a 23 -year -old Jack Willis and Kyle Circle.”

Biggar: I expect Lions to choose the strongest XV from the beginning.

person Sky Sports Analyst and former Lions Fly Half Dan Biggar thought on Saturday’s selection of O’Argara and thought that Andy Farrell and his staff would go on a different way.

“There’s a little bit of ROG team in terms of ROG’s start, but the logic of what ROG says is absolutely the highest, but Australia thinks that it has a really good record in Brisorp Stadium in Brisbane.

“They tend to start really well and climb to the top, and I think Lions will not want to give Australians any INS.

“So I think they’ll start with the most powerful front zids, two rows, and white -run, and try to stay away from the game. Rather than potential to potentially invite them to the game, they try and chase some scrum punishment and breakdown penalty.

British and Ireland Lions manager Andy Farrell admits that there are some difficult decisions about team choices.

“If you choose Owen Farr all from the 6-2 bench, you will be light on the side of your backrest. If you get injured 3, you will depend on some fate from the perspective of injury whenever Gary Ringrose goes to the wing and goes to 6-2 or 7-1.

“But he looked good. Obviously, the next Saturday would be a bigger stage than today.”
