45 m. ago Andy Farrell is warned not to count Australia out as Lions focus on first Test

Ian Foster backs Wallabies’ Joe Schmidt to ‘build belief’Henry Pollock says Lions ‘believe 3-0 is on the table’Andy Farrell has been warned against underestimating his opposite number, Joe Schmidt, as the buildup to the British & Irish Lions series intensifies. Farrell is about to sit down with his assistants to finalise his selection plans for Saturday’s first Test against Australia, but those familiar with the wily Schmidt insist the Lions could yet be unexpectedly outflanked.While Farrell and Schmidt know each other extremely well from their time working together with Ireland, the former All Black coach Ian Foster believes the forthcoming series is not a foregone conclusion.

The follow-up to Trainspotting sees Renton, Begbie and co settling down. The bestselling author explains why now is the perfect time for romanceI was born in the great port of Leith. Stories are in my blood; listening to them, telling them. My family were typical of many in the area, moving from tenement to council scheme, increasingly further down the Forth estuary.

47 m. ago Has America learned anything from the George Floyd uprisings? | Eric Morrison

The response to the demonstrations fell short. But they marked the beginning of a new era that calls for actionFive years ago, the entire world changed when we saw George Floyd’s body on the pavement, a knee pressed into his neck – a murder, in broad daylight. Others might have simply witnessed a horrific incident, but Black people saw ourselves, and what it’s like to live with a knee on our necks at all times. Because George Floyd wasn’t the first – and unless we uproot this system, he won’t be the last. The police have gone so far as to remind us of this by killing more people each year since George Floyd.But the uprisings of 2020 didn’t erupt because of one killing.
