US EditionLions Tame Gutsy Brumbies for Fourth Straight Win
AUSTRALIAN CAPITAL TERRITORY, AUSTRALIA, JUL 9 – The Lions secured a 36-24 win but face fullback shortages after Blair Kinghorn’s early knee injury, with only one recognized fullback available ahead of the Australia Test series.
- During their match in Canberra, Lions fullback Blair Kinghorn was forced off early with a knee injury, deepening squad depth concerns after Daly’s fractured arm.
- An awkward landing early in the match led to Kinghorn limping off after 25 minutes, leaving limited backup after Daly's injury.
- Analysis confirms the Lions rely on Keenan and Smith at fullback, with Kinghorn facing a race against time to prove fitness after injury.
- Coach Andy Farrell's strongest side appeared unconvincing, raising concerns ahead of the first Test in Brisbane in 10 days, with Farrell visibly frustrated over squad cohesion.
- With the first Test in Brisbane on July 19, Kinghorn's knee injury casts doubt on his involvement in the series, ahead of Saturday’s final tuneup match against the AUNZ invitational squad.
