Barbarians FC has teased rugby fans with a few
more details of their squad selection for the British and Irish
Lions Australia Tour which begins in Hong Kong on 1 June 2013.
Barbarians FC Tour Manager, Derek Quinnell, announced that New
Zealand Fly-Half Nick Evans, English Centre Mike Tindall and
Italian Hooker Leonardo Ghiraldini will don the black and white
striped jersey at Hong Kong Stadium.
Quinnell said, "This year's
summer tour is a very important one for our club. It is a great honour to play the Lions as well as England and we are very
conscious of the need to invite the strongest possible squad to do
justice to two great fixtures."
Last month, the
Barbarians announced the first batch of names for what is shaping
up to be a strong squad. Sergio Parisse, who led the Barbarians to
victory over Wales and England two years ago, returns to Baa-Baas' colours.
Other debutants for the famous touring club include
Samoan scrum-half Kahn Fotuali'i and France number 8 Imanol
Harinordoquy.
