It's the occasion. It's different to a Test match at Twickenham or in any other part of the world," Itoje said."The fans go crazy, the streets will be lined with people in Lions shirts, we won't be able to go anywhere so it is just a little bit different in that respect."It's an opportunity that one should relish. It's one of the great opportunities and events for us."
