Lions star Dan Sheehan has been banned for four matches after his reckless clear out of Australia’s Tom Lynagh in Saturday’s 22-12 Lions defeat to the Wallabies. Australian fly-half Lynagh was taken off almost immediately and is set to miss the Wallabies’ trip to South Africa with concussion.
The Lions enjoyed a successful tour to Australia as they won the first Test 27-19 at the Suncorp Stadium, before winning the second 29-26 at the Melbourne Cricket Ground. But Andy Farrell’s team weren’t able to complete a series whitewash in the final Test at the Accor Stadium on Saturday evening as the home side ran out as winners.
