Garry Ringrose will miss the British & Irish Lions’ first Test against Australia next Saturday, having suffered a concussion injury and failing Head Injury Assessment after the win against the Brumbies last Wednesday.

Ringrose had scored his third try of the tour as the Lions notched their fourth win in Australia against the Super Rugby semi-finalists but took a knock in contact in the 74th minute of the 36-24 victory in Canberra.
