Lions Tour: Once in a lifetime chance

The British and Irish Lions Tour to New Zealand is due to kick off in early June. And The Lions' one and only series victory against the All Blacks came in 1971.

Matt Dawson, who took part in three tours with the Lions, explains what it's like to take part in the test match, calling it "exciting".

But the former England scrum-half also states that it may well be a bigger deal for New Zealand as they may "only get one chance", since the competition only makes its way to the island once every twelve years.
