Lions refresh for ‘daunting’ Irish tour as Ivan van Rooyen targets URC play-off spot

Ivan van Rooyen will allow his Lions players to mentally reset this week ahead of a challenging two-week tour to Ireland, where they will face Leinster and Munster. Following a sixth consecutive victory in the URC, he will stick to his approach by giving the squad a complete break from rugby. This strategy has served the Lions well so far, and Van Rooyen hopes it will help them secure a place in the URC play-offs by collecting valuable points.
