@Dodge said in 2025 British & Irish Lions tour to Australia:
heard on a podcast last night that Kinghorn will likely be playing for Toulouse in the T14 final the day of the first tour match, then probably miss the second as he'll be in the air, and the third because of jet lag - i hadn't been sure whether to go with Keenan or Kinghorn at 15 but that firms up my view now i think.
The Top 14 final is 28 June, the first Test isn't until 19 July. Don't think Kinghorn would have any issues being ready for that. He could still play in any of the warm-up games on 5 July, 9 July or 12 July.
Does raise an interesting question though of whether Kinghorn would give up the chance of playing in a Top 14 final so that he can tour with the Lions (but it's not an issue in this case).
