Scotland's Graham on 'cruel' Lions squad omission

Scotland's Darcy Graham says learning of his British and Irish Lions squad omission while sitting with his family was "a cruel way to find out".However, the disappointment "sets fuel on the fire" for the 28-year-old winger."It was disappointing not to get called up for the Lions," Graham said from Scotland's Suva-based training camp. "I was watching with the family and it's a cruel way to find out. I'm disappointed not to be in, but it sets fuel on the fire for me. "I'm just here to do my job and see what happens after that."Despite his own disappointment, the Edinburgh wing says he was delighted for Scotland team-mate Ben White after his late call-up last week."I was buzzing for Ben," Graham added. "We were sharing rooms and I know how much he wanted it."To see the other boys in it is so special, and they've gone out and they've been awesome this campaign."
