    The 97 tour dvd is probably the best insight to rugby I've ever seen, and if anyone's wondering of Geech can get the Lions back in shape - there's your answer.

    A lot of emotion out there, when the game had just gone pro, although the Irish players probably didn't embrace it until 2 years later.

    A great tour, 2001 on the other hand was one we should have won, but there seemed such a bad mood in the camp which Henry didn't really help with.

    Video's like that do put a bit of faith back into the Lions and Ireland, always good to watch those before big games.

    both of these clips are from documentaries made on the lions the 97 one was the best one its called living with lions, it has been shown occasionally on espn classic on sky in last few months. Im not sure of the name of 01 documentary but its so so and is nothing in comparison to the 97 doc, there was also a doc made on the 05 tour and it is terrible

    Yeah the 05 one is terrible.

    The 97 one is called 'Living with Lions' while the other one is Up Close & Personal, I think
