This morning’s Lions team announcement is set to bring disappointment for Conor Murray.
Scotland scrum-half Ali Price has reportedly been favoured ahead of the Munster man for Saturday’s first test with the Springboks.
Robbie Henshaw, Tadhg Furlong and Jack Conan are all set to start, with Murray, Iain Henderson and Tadhg Beirne on the bench.
Owen Farrell must content himself with a place among the replacements, with Dan Biggar preferred at out-half.
