Bowe out of Lions tour with finger injury

Tommy Bowe has been forced out of the British and Irish Lions' tour of Australia with a finger injury.

The Irish winger broke a bone during Saturday's 22-12 win over Queensland Reds in Brisbane.

Lions coach Warren Gatland has yet to select a replacement for the 29-year-old.

Bowe joins Cian Healy and Gethin Jenkins in leaving the tour early because of injury.
