Jack Conan has been a British & Irish Lion before but given it was the Covid-hit tour to South Africa of 2021, the Ireland No.8 is relishing the opportunity to embrace a proper Lions touring experience when the squad leaves for Australia on Saturday.

Conan, 32, was in the stands at Aviva Stadium on Friday night as Andy Farrell’s squad faced Argentina ahead of departure for Perth and an opening tour match against Western Force next Saturday.
