“He revelled in it” – Retiring Alun Wyn Jones names his toughest second-row opponents

#3. Maro Itoje

In the 2017 Lions tour, we witnessed a remarkable camaraderie develop between Maro Itoje, the superstar from England, and Alun Wyn Jones, the legendary Welsh captain.

Following the second Lions test against New Zealand, where Maro Itoje displayed exceptional performance, even the esteemed Welsh captain couldn’t resist praising the young Saracens lock.

Post-game, AWJ joined in chanting “Oh Maro Itoje,” a popular chant that had gained momentum during the tour, celebrating the outstanding talent and bond that had grown between the two players.
