They only got 3 points after Valetini and Skelton went off, both not 100% fit obviously. They constantly carried them over the gain line first half.

Loved the comeback from the Lions.‘The game changed after half an hour when Lowes. Jomes and Freeman remembered they were top rugby players. Bubdiaki and Genge smashed holes in the Aussie defence in the second half.
Al credit to our most consistent performers. Gibson-Park and Curry. Farrell had the game
ense not to get isolated at the end so we could set up the winner. Fitting an Irish man scored the winning try for the dominant Northern hemisphere team.
Mario Itoje was full of lows and highs on today’s performance. Still an incredible achieve to captain a Lions series winners.
The players have conducted themselves well and I’m looking forward to Morgan starting the last game. It’s the pinnacle of British and Irish sport and the current side will join the pantheons greats (regardless of the quality of the convicts weee much improved today. Curry and Sheehan join the likes of JPR, Daviesi, Irvine, Paddy Mayne and Johnson.
Thank you Lions

Hes never changed. He was like that when i was over there for the 2001 series.Loving the fact that Campo has been making a **** of himself all series doing the Lions down to be proved as usual absolutely wrong.
When i met him though he was nice as pie. He used to have a sport shop at the Rocks in Sydney, and was making a killing flogging Lions shirts from it.

He’s a proper character for sure he’s been slagging off Melbourne and RL for the past week.

With the series won I would love to see the mid week team playing the last test. It's now a nothing game. As I said the Aussies are not the force they once were. So last test a complete different 15 and I still think the Lions will win it if they did that. Centres of Ringrose , Aki or Farrell would have enough class the wingers who have not started a test are just as good as who played. The pack area many not be as strong but they still got a lot of experience.
Can't see it, they'll want that clean sweep record.With the series won I would love to see the mid week team playing the last test. It's now a nothing game.

Campo does a lot of nonsensical PR with his tongue firmly in his cheek. He just loves playing that game.Hes never changed. He was like that when i was over there for the 2001 series.

A couple of huge kicks from Finn in the second half. It wasn't his greatest game though and collectively too many mistakes made and they could have been more clinical in the Oz 25 in the second half. I have to say I thought they were going to get there for most of the second half but they did leave it late. Very good game and it turned when Australia took off Skelton and Valetini.

Would have been interesting to see a series where these 2 were fully fit going into Test 1.

I'm guessing that Lions squad will have had quite a night. Plenty of shandies and lemonades downed.

Watched the match on telly and what a great game of rugby ! Just read the BBC Sport Website analysis - what is it with that organisation ? Quite reserved in their congratulations. Imagine the Aussie media if they'd won ? You can only beat what's in front of you, yet they harp back how different it would have been against the great Aussie sides of the past, plus the great All Black teams, plus the South Africans. For Christ's Sake give credit where it's due. Well done lads - now go for the clean sweep.

I’ve got two friends who are over there fitting it in with touring Oz & NZ, climbing, cycling, sailing and walking.There seemed to be a hell of a lot of Lions fans out there, even allowing for the expats. That's an expensive trip, particularly if they're taking in all three tests. Don't be complaining about going to Spurs or Arsenal ever again!
;-)
It’s a bucket list thing for them.

I saw an interview some years back with Campo trash talking the Lions and British nations why he thought that nice Welsh lad Scott Gibbs would not say anything is beyond me ;-), yep Scott ripped the Auussie wanker a new one.Loving the fact that Campo has been making a **** of himself all series doing the Lions down to be proved as usual absolutely wrong.
