Pics: Support for BOD is out in force in Sydney today

The Lions are on the verge of winning their first test series since 1997 today, but one man who won’t be playing is still firmly on the minds of most Irish Lions supporters.

The Lions are on the verge of winning their first test series since 1997 today, but one man who won’t be playing is still firmly on the minds of most Irish Lions supporters.

As you’ll probably have seen over the last few days, the ‘Justice for BOD’ campaign has gone a little overboard – and, in the case of the naked BOD supporters from Portumna, is just a little disturbing – at home in recent days, but support for our greatest ever player has spread to our brethren Down Under if some pictures sent into us overnight are anything to go by.

The picture below sent into us by Jenny Lennon on Twitter shows that it’s not just Irish or even just Lions supporters showing their support for BOD…

While if O’Driscoll spots this flag, sent into us by Gavin Warren, in the stadium today it will surely bring a smile to the great man’s face…

As he said himself, however, today is all about getting over the line and sealing that test victory, so let’s get behind the four Irish players and the rest of the squad on what could be a historical night for the Lions in their last outing for another four years.

Hat-tip to Jenny Lennon and Gavin Warren for sending these into us. Jenny and Gavin are now in with a shot of winning €250 by the end of the month.
