# Rugby: Wallabies head coach Joe Schmidt says the British and Irish Lions will probably also not select their best players for their midweek matches during their tour of Australia. He reacted after Lions CEO, Ben Calveley warned the hosts they would be in breach of contract if they don’t allow their Test players to play for their regional teams. Schmidt is keen to avoid injuries because of the Wallabies’ lack of depth, but did promise to consider releasing national players to the Reds and the Waratahs.
