O’Gara fan Monye motivated by prospects of Lions place

THE problem for Ugo Monye is that his career-defining moment has already been and gone.

No matter what he goes on to achieve in his career, the image that will stick in the mind is the Harlequins wing clenching his fists and roaring to the crowd after scoring his stunning breakaway try in the third Test of the Lions tour to South Africa four years ago.

That may be no bad thing; after all, the majority of players go through their careers searching for just such a moment.
