Overview

• Mack Hansen skipped full training on Tuesday with a foot injury that Southampton called “nothing serious” but still leaves him doubtful for Saturday’s opener.
• Blair Kinghorn is also a training absentee after aggravating a knee issue, putting his first-Test prospects in jeopardy.
• Garry Ringrose and hooker Luke Cowan-Dickie are officially sidelined under concussion protocols, extending the Lions’ unavailable list to four.
• Farrell expanded his tour roster to 44 by adding Tom Clarkson, Jamie Osborne and Scotland’s Ewan Ashman, Rory Sutherland and Darcy Graham as injury cover.
• Final fitness assessments will follow Wednesday workouts before Farrell names his 23-man lineup on Thursday, with selection headaches persisting across the squad.
