I’ve put myself in Lions frame, reckons O’Brien

Brian O’Driscoll gave Seán O’Brien a little reminder that more than just a Champions Cup semi-final spot was up for grabs ahead of last Saturday’s game against Wasps.

“He has been a little bit quiet in the Six Nations,” O’Driscoll said last week of O’Brien, “I know that Gats and Andy Farrell like him but he could really do with a massive game.”

The former Ireland skipper was looking out for his old teammate, and former Lions colleague.
