by Preparations for the series against the Wallabies are intensified when the British and Irish Lions play their penultimate tour game before the first test against Australia.
The Brumbies, which were beaten this year in the Super Rugby Pacific Semi-finalists in Canberra, and Andy Farrell named his strong team with 10 days for the game of the week with 10 days until the opening test.

The Lions boss will be disappointed by a really sloppy exhibition against the Waratahs at the weekend, although the tourists have at least maintained their unbeaten record since their arrival.
Farrell will be expected much better, however, because his team looks to build dynamics when the tour is in speed.
Here is everything you need to know.
When do the Brumbies get out of British and Irish lions?
The Brumbies will organize the Lions in the Gio Stadium in the Gio Stadium in Canberra on Wednesday, July 9th in Canberra.
How can I see it?
The audience in the United Kingdom can see the match live on Sky Sports Main Event and Sky Sports Action, with reporting from 10 a.m. A live stream will be available via Sky Go and now.

Team messages
The brothers Tom and Lachie Hooper were able to play together as professionals for the first time after they were named in the Brumbies Matchday 23. The former – the oldest of the two – made a last appearance for the Canberra team before moving to Exeter next season. He begins at the blind side after performing on Sunday in the close victory against Fiji from the Bank for the Wallabies.
Lock Cadeyrn Neville will take over the Lions a second time in his career, since he was beaten part of the selection of Melbourne Rebels during the 2013 tour, while the Augpack Andy Muirhead may bring tourists twice in a period of weeks.
The Lions selection has a very test-like look with Andy Farrell, which may use this as an opportunity to examine its likely combinations for the opening struggle with the Wallabies in Brisbane. Maro Itoje returns as a captain as part of a pack that contains an additional lineout sweater in Ollie Chessum, which is stationed on the blind side opposite Tom Curry and completes Jack Conan the back row. Ellis Genge, Dan Sheehan and Tadhg Furlong remain as a unit and appear in the front row after they were published by the bank against the Waratahs.

In the halves it is Jamison Gibson-Park and Finn Russell, who will find the fluid ability, with Bundee Aki and Garry Ringrose go beyond them. Blair Kinghorn moves from the wing to the full -back. It will be a proud day for Mack Hansen on the bench – born in Canberra, the Ireland wing, will take on a few well -known friends and enemies four years after leaving the Brumbies to join Connacht.
