Lions announce fixture change

The Lions have announced an amendment to the match itinerary for the tour to Australia in 2013. The change has been agreed between the ARU and the Lions.

The Lions match against a Combined Country XV was originally scheduled to be played at Hunter Stadium, Newcastle on Wednesday June 12. However, the match has been re-scheduled to bring it into line with the midweek matches that will follow over the ensuing two weeks leading into the First and Second Test.

Therefore the British & Irish Lions versus Combined Country fixture will take place one day earlier on Tuesday, June 11, at Hunter Stadium.
