British and Irish Lions

Bill Beaumont has paid tribute to former England and British & Irish Lions lock Maurice Colclough, who died on Friday at the age of 52 after a long battle with a brain tumour.

Colclough won 25 England caps between 1978 and 1986 and was a member of the Grand Slam-winning team in 1980.

The former Wasps and Swansea second row twice toured with the Lions, playing in all eight Tests in South Africa (1980) and New Zealand (1983).

Lions tour manager Beaumont, a friend and former team-mate of Colclough, said: "Maurice was a powerful and very athletic rugby player who made a massive contribution to the clubs he played for, to his country and to the Lions.

"He had a huge heart and will be greatly missed."

The British & Irish Lions will dust themselves down after losing their unbeaten record to the Brumbies and be back at work in a positive frame of mind from Wednesday, according to 2009 Test full back Rob Kearney.

With Tuesday's trip to Canberra next on the agenda for The British & Irish Lions, we take a look back at their last clash with the Brumbies, a match that went right down to the wire.
