There may never be another Lions tour like it, with tears, talk of mutiny in the ranks, accusations, explosive player diaries and a head coach who appeared increasingly isolated. How did the 2001 Lions adventure to Australia go so badly wrong? How did it end in bitterness and recriminations? How did Austin Healy and Matt Dawson single handedly destroy the tour? Today I am joined by journalist and British & Irish Lions media manager Alex Broun to give us the inside story for the first time ever on how this calamitous tour went so badly wrong! ------------ This Wednesday we will be doing our only live show of the year in Fulham with special guests - Al Hargreaves and Chris Wyles - all money will go towards Ed Slaters foundation - please come along and have a great night - get your tickets here - https://www.eventbrite.com/e/rig-biz-pod-live-100th-episode-special-raising-money-for-ed-slater-tickets-407355440087?utm_source=eventbrite&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=post_publish&utm_content=shortLinkNewEmail
