Look how SIMPLE the video decisions have been in this match, can hear whats said and complete clarity
So FIFA why do you have to so damned difficult with the VAR - Rugby have shown it works, just COPY them... But no you have to think that Football is the holiest sport in the world!!
Feels flat, but that's a huge achievement from the Lions. It isn't easy to bring in players from 3-4 nations and have them play like a super team who have been together for years. It's hard enough to do against good teams, let alone one that stands head & shoulders above the rest of the world and has done for vast majority of recent history.
Fantastic series, great drama and altogether a great advert for Lions rugby. Thought we would get steam rollered today but they dug deep and could have snatched it in the end. I think we were a little lucky with that penalty that wasn't at the end, but these things tend to even out over a series. Itoje is an awesome player, and will surely captain the Lions one day.
Warren Gatland says he "hated" the tour, reckoned the media gave him a hard time. He didn't take kindly at the suggestion that Eddie Jones would have led the Lions to a 3-0 series win. Nor remarks from senior players on tour that he put much of the coaching responsibility onto senior players without getting involved himself.

Overall a great series but glad I won't have to hear the word physicality again for a while.
