Former England international and British and Irish Lion Brian Moore is recovering in a London hospital after suffering a heart attack.
The 55-year-old, capped 64 times by his country, thanked staff at St George's Hospital for saving his life.
He tweeted on Saturday: "As this is starting to get out - I'm in ICU of St George's having suffered heart attack. Thanks to the professionals who saved my life."
Moore was part of the Lions squad for the tours of Australia and New Zealand in 1989 and 1993 respectively.
As this is starting to get out- I'm in ICU of St George's having suffered heart attack. Thanks to the professionals who saved my life.

Ben it's beyond their comprehension-
Go to commentsThanks Sam. Interesting read. Harder or easier for Parling to come into a completely new setup where performance was abysmal last time out? I’d suggest easier to be better but, as you suggest, will be a lot to do with how much latitude he’s granted. Hopefully all he needs. With hybrids like Holloway, Hannigan, Swinton and Leota as options at 6 we have the basics for a strong lineout. BPA returning means we have good options at 2 also with Faessler, Porecki and Uelese, although Jordan is a scrumming beast rather than a dart thrower. I’m typically a pessimist or realist but that’s never applied to the Wallabies
