Sutherland will link up with the Lions squad in Melbourne next Sunday following the first Test, providing front-row cover for the clash with the First Nations & Pasifika XV on Tuesday 22 July.
He will join fellow Warriors Sione Tuipulotu, Huw Jones and Scott Cummings in Australia, the trio having played a prominent role in Saturday’s 48-0 victory over the AUNZ Invitational XV.
