O’Driscoll ‘dreaming’ of another crack at Lions glory

BRIAN O’DRISCOLL insists he would love to defy Father Time and have another crack at Lions glory in four years’ time.

The Ireland skipper, ruled out of Saturday’s third Test with concussion, says he is already dreaming of Australia in 2013, when he will be 34.

O’Driscoll wrote in his Guardian column: “To those who have given the Lions a mauling as a concept after last week’s defeat in Pretoria, I can say only one thing. Playing for the Lions is like a drug: you cannot get enough and as I watched the game (third Test on Saturday), I thought about the tour to Australia in 2013. I will be 34 that year, but I am already dreaming about being part of the squad.
