Ian McGeechan has likened the Springboks versus the British and Irish Lions three-test series in South Africa to three successive World Cup finals SouthAfrica2021 LionsTour2021 LetsGetReadyToRugby

McGeechan’s playing and coaching career includes four Lions tours. He coached the men in red to a series win against the Springboks in 1997, was in South Africa as a player with the glorious, undefeated 1974 Lions and then returned to South Africa in 2009 as the head coach.

“Naturally, there’s huge interest in the three test matches, but there have also been an overwhelming number of applications for the non-test matches, which is fantastic for the tour.” “It’s a dream schedule, both in terms of travel and also for the Lions squad in terms of the quality of opposition in the build-up to the test series.”

Oberholzer says the five non-test matches will give South Africans a chance to experience a Lions match day, which he likens to a rugby carnival.
