Video Description
It was brutal and sometimes bloody - it was exhilarating, emotional and often controversial, it was the Great Britain Rugby League Lions Down Under and this is the real behind the scenes story of one of the most remarkable sports tours on record.
Warriors Down Under is the hard-hitting follow up to the acclaimed League of Their Own, but this time it really is access all areas, providing the most intense and powerful insight into the make up of these extraordinary men.
Coached again by Wigan Warriors Brian Noble and led by Leeds Rhinos' Jamie Peacock, the Lions faced four tests in as many weeks against the two best sides in the world, Australia and New Zealand. The 2006 Tri-Nations series proved to be the ultimate examination of their courage and character.
Bruised and battered on the pitch and hounded by a hostile media off it, the Lions astounded their critics to beat the Aussies on a glorious night in Sydney. Then St Helens star Sean Long shocked the sport by quitting the tour as his side faced one final make or break game.
Warriors Down Under is the stunning, uncompromising but riveting account of rugby league's ultimate challenge. Blood, sweat and tears - No-one has got this close to the sport before.
