The danger of Lions 'politics' | The dark days of 2005 | Eddie O'Sullivan

Joe is joined by Eddie O'Sullivan to break down the Lions' win over the Western Force, discuss the team selection for Wednesday's game against the Reds and to look back on the disastrous tour to New Zealand in 2005. Eddie thinks Andy Farrell should be more mindful of the politics of a Lions tour in his media comments and says that it's too early to pencil players into the Test team. The chat then turns towards the Lions 3-0 series defeat against New Zealand in 2005, with Eddie - who was an assistant coach to Clive Woodward on the tour - explaining why things went wrong. Our rugby coverage on the Indo Sport podcast is brought to you by Energia.
