ACT Brumbies coach Stephen Larkham hopes captain Ryan Lonergan’s strong showing against the British & Irish Lions is proof the scrumhalf is ready for a golden jersey. Lonergan has been on the verge of a Test debut for the Wallabies for several years, included in camps by several different coaches.

The British & Irish Lions were made to work, but eased to a 36-24 win over a depleted ACT Brumbies team in Canberra on Wednesday in a victory soured by another backline injury. Lions fullback Blair Kinghorn came off early in the first half and spent the rest of the match icing his left knee at Canberra Stadium.
The Lions slowly pulled clear with second-half tries from Garry Ringrose and Josh van der Flier, but the strongest line-up fielded by head coach Andy Farrell so far on tour were unconvincing with the series opener against Australia just 10 days away.
