Lions full back Rob Kearney has returned to training and could now be available for Saturday's mid-week game against the Waratahs.
The Ireland and Leinster star has recovered from a hamstring tear and will make his first appearance of the Tour later this week.
In a further boost, Lions assistant coach Andy Farrell says that out-half Jonathan Sexton is fit and will be available for this weekend's game.
