Rory Best: Lions selection a ‘massive honour’

by

Yet again the Front Row Union get’s it right with our almost mystic prediction of the future! Away back at the end of April in our Lions Squad announcement we predicted the following:

I’m afraid the non selection of Best has taken most of the gloss of this tour, particularly as he has comprehensively outplayed Hartley in every meeting, but there is a reasonable chance that the New Zealander will get suspended before the season is over!

And low it has come to pass 🙂

To celebrate Rory’s Lion’s selection Ulster Rugby have released the following interview.

Rory – congratulations on your call up to the British and Irish Lions. After the disappointment of a few weeks ago, how good is it now, to be called up to the squad?

It was hard when I didn’t make the initial squad, because it is everyone’s ambition, it is everyone’s ultimate goal to qualify to play for them. To now be selected is a massive honour.
