Farrell on bench for final Lions game before Tests

Owen Farrell has been named on the bench for the British and Irish Lions' final tour match before the Test series against Australia.

The 33-year-old, who joined the tour last week as a replacement for the injured Elliot Daly, is one of two outside backs among the replacements, with Marcus Smith alongside him.

Scotland's Ben White starts at scrum-half, with Jac Morgan afforded another chance to impress at open-side flanker.

Henry Pollock and Ben Earl complete the back row, with the Scotland centre partnership of Sione Tuipulotu and Huw Jones also starting.

The Australia/New Zealand invitational XV includes 63-cap Wallabies wing Marika Koroibete and All Blacks Hoskins Sotutu, Shannon Frizell and Ngani Laumape.

Tane Edmed, who made his Australia debut off the bench against Ireland in November and could return to the Wallabies squad after the injury to their first-choice 10 Noah Lolesio, is at fly-half.

Former Wasps and Ulster prop Jeffery Toomaga-Allen also starts, while Pete Samu, a key part of European champions Bordeaux-Begles back row this season, is at open-side flanker.
