    All Blacks are strong finishers I expect nothing other then a 3-0 whitewash in this series

    Lions had to take the first test for a chance at the series imo, all over now.

    Really hope the Lions can win in Wellington just so the series is a contest.

    I predict a record scoreline win for The All Blacks in the 2nd test,especially if no Scots are picked again for the starting line up:giggle2:

    It was a good match. The Lions had a couple of chances that they could have put away. The main difference (for me) was the speed that the AB turned defence into attack & and they put all their chances away ruthlessly.

    Farrell started well, he had a good first half then ran out of puff, not surprising as he's been injured for the last couple of weeks. A normal coach would have subbed him and left T'eo on - but then again we're talking about Gatland.

    Onwards and downwards.

    A Scottish try, started by Tommy, picked up by Greig & finished by Tommy. Length of the pitch.

    * off Gatland :57:

    Try by the Hurricanes and a future Warrior scores - Callum Gibbins moving to Glasgow for the start of the season. 7-13 to the Lions.

    FT 31-31 great game. Seymour scores 2 tries, Finn Russell gets about 10 mins game time.

    That was fantastic. Shame Russell didn't get more time.

    Thought Henderson was immense.
