    Shhh. If it keeps Trev quiet and away from all the main threads, then it works for me.

    Best display of the tour and Pollock outstanding. Look forward to test match next week.

    And kept a clean sheet. Some on here will appreciate what a clean sheet means. <laugh>

    Seeing as the OP is taking his lunchtime nap...

    Big, big win for the Lions. Amazing first 50 minutes for the Lions, totally dominant, with some fast play, forward dominance, great ball handling and some great tries.

    But then it was all Australia. The Lions had to dig deep to keep them out as Australia piled the pressure on, scoring 2 late tries.

    1-0 up in the series up puts us in a great position. But credit to Australia for fighting back to finish strongly.

    What a great test match to watch though. Intense and ferocious with some huge collisions. Will be lots of bumps and bruises in the morning.

    Lots of great stuff from the Lions, plus plenty to work on ahead of the 2nd test.

    LIONS!!

    Wallabies will be really up for this one. Pressure on them to level the series.
    Will be interesting to see what difference the 2 sets of team selection changes will make.

    LIONS. LIONS.
