Tommy Freeman hands Lions major injury scare on eve of third Australia Test
The British & Irish Lions face a significant injury concern ahead of the third Test against Australia, with winger Tommy Freeman struggling with a back injury. Freeman, who has started the first two Tests, sat out the captain's run on Friday, and there are doubts about his availability for the series finale. The Lions are aiming for their first clean sweep since 1927 and their first unbeaten series since 1974. The team has claimed that Freeman's absence is due to workload management, but it is understood that contingency plans have been made, which could involve moving Huw Jones to the wing and bringing Owen Farrell into the starting lineup.
