Darren Morris has a place in the Lions’ history books after being part of the side who kicked off the 2001 Tour with 116-10 victory over Western Australia.
The Swansea prop made further starts in the wins over NSW Waratahs and ACT Brumbies, as well as coming off the bench in Tour games with Australia A and NSW Country.
And Morris was brought on as a replacement for Tom Smith in the memorable deciding Test against Australia, as Matt Burke’s penalties and Justin Harrison’s late steal at the lineout secured the series for the hosts.
Born in Pontypridd, the 18-cap prop played for Neath and Swansea in his native Wales before spells at Leicester Tigers, Worcester Warriors, Cardiff Blues and Northampton Saints.
