Gavan Casey IT WILL BE almost 11 months before this rugby season concludes with the Lions’ third Test against Australia in Sydney.
Much like those spiders, the Premiership isn’t actually getting any bigger but it will crawl in your window in search of a mate. And that bloody window is always open: rugby can’t afford air conditioning.
