Forward Henry Whitehead started the Lions Test match against Argentina in Buenos Aires on June 12 1910.
That came despite having never previously played international rugby, although he did play for Manchester AC, Lancashire and the North of England.
Whitehead was among the majority when it came to experience with only four members having played international rugby previously.
But collectively they came together to record a 100 per cent winning record from their six games, including the 28-3 win over Argentina in the sole international match.
