Lions 2013: Waratahs Out To Make History Against Lions
by Brendan Bradford -
Captain Dave Dennis will lead the Waratahs at Allianz Stadium on Saturday night as they attempt to become the first New South Wales side since 1959 to beat the British and Irish Lions.
Dennis and centre, Rob Horne were released from Wallabies camp by coach Robbie Deans for the historic match and will add a combined 29-Test matches of experience to an otherwise green looking Waratahs side that is missing 11 international players.
“Robbie spoke to me on Wednesday and said if I had the opportunity to play against the Lions on Saturday would I want it, so you obviously know my answer,” said Dennis after Waratahs training on Friday.
“It’s a great opportunity for me to lead the boys out tomorrow night in front of a full house, so I’m really looking forward to it.”
