Tadhg Furlong comes into this Lions tour in a very different place to four years ago. By Murray Kinsella Saturday 3 Jul 2021, 9:13 AM 17 hours ago 8,426 Views 1 Comment

DURING THE FIRST lockdown last year, Tadhg Furlong found himself watching repeats of the 2017 Lions tour. He wasn’t quite happy with what he saw of himself, a 24-year-old who had only made his first Ireland start the year before.
Furlong was the Lions’ first-choice tighthead four years ago and generally impressed in New Zealand but looking back on it more recently, he sees limits to the contributions he made.
