Maro Itoje has made a passionate defence of the British & Irish Lions and the continuing rotation of tours to Australia, New Zealand and South Africa.
The Lions captain was speaking on Tuesday as the tourists transitioned from celebrating their unassailable 2-0 series lead against the Wallabies, achieved last Saturday at the Melbourne Cricket Ground, into the 2025 squad’s bid for a first series sweep since 1974 against the Springboks.
