Summary
The Telegraph Rugby Podcast is back ahead of the 2025 British and Irish Lions Tour to Australia!
Alan Dymock, Charlie Morgan and Charles Richardson pick the bones out of an opening game defeat for Andy Farrell's side who were beaten 28-24 by Argentina in Dublin.
They take a look at what went wrong on the night, and what positives there were to take out of the game with a number of players putting their hand up for test spot despite the loss.
Next up is the first clash on Australian soil against the Western Force, we take a look at the threat posed by the Super Rugby side and what the Lions XV is likely to look like for that one
Plus, we look back on England's narrow defeat to France at Twickenham and tackle all your burning questions as usual.
