    Doesn't happen often, but, when it does, it's brilliant.

    Made hard work of it best of Britain against just one country that has far less cash pumped in to the Sport to make them good.

    It was a great game, the intensity was off the scale! A real ‘game of 2 halves’.

    itoje and Lawes were unreal 2nd half.

    They were our 2 standout players.

    If we had a couple of centres to do what theirs do, things would be more comfortable from hereon.

    Agree with this. I’d play Farrell at 12 but I’m not sure about 13, think the centres in the squad are much of a muchness to be honest.

    Can't agree at all DB, South Africa lives and breathes Rugby and produces some of the biggest hardest men around...brought up in a school of very hard knocks. The Lions weren't expected by many to get near them never mind win...it will be even harder next week when the game is played at altitude.

    I think I read this week that all 3 tests are being played in one location, due to the risk posed by Covid-19 in SA.

    That rings a bell. Think all 3 tests are being played in Cape Town now.
