Dallaglio still dreaming of Lions spot

Lawrence Dallaglio has predicted a few dark horses will be included in the British and Irish Lions squad to play New Zealand – and the former England captain remains hopeful he will be one of them.

Lions coach Clive Woodward finalises his 44-man playing squad on April 11 and all the speculation in the build-up to the announcement has surrounded Jonny Wilkinson’s fitness and whether retired internationals like Dallaglio and Neil Back will be included.
