CAPE TOWN - Original tour captain Alun Wyn Jones came off the bench after a remarkably quick recovery from a shoulder injury to help the British and Irish Lions hammer the Stormers 49-3 in Cape Town on Saturday.
Jones was injured in a warm-up match against Japan in Edinburgh last month and ruled out of the eight-match tour only to arrive in South Africa on Thursday, and replaced Adam Beard after 64 minutes.
