BOD: “James Horwill is a lucky boy”

Brian O’Driscoll says Australia captain is a “lucky boy” after being cleared of stamping on Alun-Wyn Jones in the first Test on Saturday.
The Queensland Reds lock was cited after the game which the Lions won 23-21 but, despite expectations he would be banned for the rest of the Series, Judicial Officer Nigel Hampton QC could not find an intentional or deliberate action of stamping or trampling.
But in an interview with Former Lions Jason Robinson, O’Driscoll is adamant Horwill got the ‘rub of the green’.
“James Horwill is a lucky boy and he knows it himself. Whether it was intentional or not, only he knows that.
“You got these rulings on some occasions and he got the rub of the green this time but it doesn’t change our attitude.
“We want to play the best Australian team and he’s definitely part of that.”
