Fringe players miss chance in Lions win

Charles Richardson is joined by Charlie Morgan to reflect on the Lions win over the First Nations Pasifika XV in their final midweek match. The match was seen as a final opportunity for some fringe players to stake their claim for Test selection on Saturday morning but few put their hand up in the narrow victory. Owen Farrell impressed playing at inside centre and we ask if his performance was enough to see him break into the 23 for Saturday. We also discuss if his link up with Fin Smith is something we could see with England in the autumn. Elsewhere, Charles gives us his report from England's tour of Argentina and who impressed during their time away. And we tackle your questions as usual too! Hosted on Acast.
