Тур хронология
Предыдущий тур 1950
Следующий тур 1958

Тур по Великобритании Лайтинской Львы 1954 года был туром команды Великобритании Национальной лиги регби в Австралии и Новой Зеландии, которая состоялась в период с мая по август 1954 года. Капитан Дики Уильямс , в туре включалось график 32 игры: 22 в Австралии и 10. в Новой Зеландии с двумя сериями тестирования с тремя матчами против обеих стран.
Тур начался неловко, когда Великобритания потеряла четыре из своих первых семи матчей, в том числе первый тест против Австралии в Сиднее. Переходя в ногу Квинсленда, результаты львов улучшились, и они выиграли все девять своих матчей в штате. Это включало победу во втором тесте в Брисбене.
Общей особенностью многих туристических матчей была грубая игра, ударившись, вбрасывая и выходили из снастей. Матч 10 июля против Нового Южного Уэльса был брошен на рефери за семнадцать минут во второй половине из -за постоянного драка со стороны игроков.
Через неделю после заброшенной игры Австралия выиграла третий тест, чтобы претендовать на пепел на 2–1.
Переехав в Новую Зеландию, Великобритания проиграла второй тест, но выздоровела, чтобы выиграть третий тест и сериал, на 2–1.
Тур завершился тремя матчами за пять дней назад в Австралии в Сиднее, Канберре и Мейтленде.
Несмотря на то, что это британская команда - пять из команд были валлийцами, двое из Шотландии и проститутка Тома МакКинни из Северной Ирландии - команда играла, и их часто упоминали как пресса дома, так и в гостях, как Англия.

The following were initially selected for the match but due to injury did not play: Gordon Farrelly ( Kangaroos), Mickey Shannon (Herbert River), N. McHardie and Eddie Kratzman (Tully).

For the Great Britain team, the account for this match in E.E. Christensen's Official Rugby League Year Book remarks that hooker Tommy Harris played on the wing but omits his name from the accompanying Great Britain team list, which lists Alan Prescott twice, as half-back and prop.

On the morning of the match (June 24) the team chosen as published in The Courier-Mail lists 14 players, with one to be omitted. This team differs from that given in the yearbook.

The local, Cairns Post match report mentions within the text the eight point-scorers, but no other British players: FB: Ted Cahill, WG: Tommy Harris, CE: Jack Cunliffe, CE: Doug Greenall, WG: Dickie Williams, FE: Raymond Price, HB: Alf Burnell and Geoff Gunney.

Hooker Tom McKinney was identified as playing in The Courier-Mail match report, winning "the scrums, 25 to 16, after leading 18 to 12 at half-time."

Alan Prescott was listed in both The Courier-Mail team list and the yearbook, but not mentioned in The Courier-Mail or Cairns Post match reports.

Four players listed in both The Courier-Mail team list but not in the yearbook, and not mentioned in the yearbook are: PR: Jack Wilkinson, John Henderson, Brian Briggs and Ken Traill. The above-named 14 players are credited with a match appearance in the Squad statistics.

The following four players listed only in the yearbook are not credited with an appearance for this Far North Queensland match: LK: Dave Valentine, SR: Charlie Pawsey, SR: Nat Silcock, PR: Jim Bowden.
