How a Staffordshire lad became a Lion
Ben White, who studied at Denstone College and played as a junior for Stoke-on-Trent Rugby Club, became only the second man from Staffordshire to represent the British and Irish Lions. He was selected for their final warm up game against a combined Australian and New Zealand team.
Simon Robson is club president of Stoke-on-Trent Rugby Club and taught Ben at Newcastle Junior School. He told 麻豆社's Lee Blakeman how it feels for the area to see Ben play.
