Description: Since their first official tour in 1930, the British and Irish Lions have always been welcome visitors to New Zealand's shores. The proud rivalry between the Lions and the All blacks stretches back over eight tours. Although the game of rugby has changed immeasurably over the years, there's no denying that a game between these two teams is something special. Drawing material from the archives of the New Zealand Herald, Rivals will take you from the first test between the teams on a snowy Carisbrook in 1930 to the third test at Eden Park in 1993.
