Lions purring in their den as they await Covid-19 test results

JOHANNESBURG - The Emirates Lions underwent a new batch of Covid-19 testing on Tuesday as the viral cluster continues to undermine their preparation for this weekend’s match against the Griquas.

All the affected players have been placed in self-isolation and will quarantine for at least 10 days, depending on if they present symptoms and the severity of their illness, if any. A decision on when the team will be announced for the Super Rugby Unlocked round 4 match against Griquas has yet to be made.
