Lions manager bowled over by ‘as good as ever’ O’Driscoll

Brian O’Driscoll looks to be in line for a fourth British & Irish Lions tour after catching the eye of manager Andy Irvine in New Zealand.

Irvine has spent the past four weeks running the rule over Scotland, Ireland and Wales on a four-week tour to Australia and New Zealand.

And in that time the Irish skipper left fellow Lions legend Irvine in no doubt he still has what it takes to play for the Lions.
