After large success on the Western Force then the Queensland Reds, the British and Irish Lions won without convincing against the Waratahs (10-21).
The British and Irish lions continue their flawlessness in Australian land. But, if the players of Andy Farrell had convinced as much in front of the Western force as against the Queensland Reds, the duel against the Waratahs reveals some doubts. However, this meeting had been launched drum beating by the selection of the best players from the British Islands. Barely the first ten minutes finished, Huw Jones improved an offering of his friend in the center of the Sione Tuipulotu Lions attack.
Faced with players of new disoriented Wales-of-Sud, the Scottish pair once again done wonderfully after half an hour of play. Thus, Huw Jones went there with his double to give fourteen lengths in his family seven minutes from the break while the Waratahs saw an essay refused them at half an hour of play. But the lions had to be wary of a return of the Australian training. It was Darby Lancaster who rang the load in the 37th minute but, the transformation being missed by Jack Bowen, the difference between the two teams was only reduced to nine lengths.
Lions have not convinced
Dan McKellar players returned to their Allianz Stadium lawn with the same state of mind. From the first minute of the second act, on a touch of five meters, a randly conducted balloon propelled Ethan Dobbins in the in-goal of the lions. In the corner, Jack Bowen once again missed the target. Andy Farrell then launched fresh blood and in particular Duhan Van der Merwe, Dan Sheehan or Tadhg Furlong to try to relaunch his team, which has encountered the defensive curtain of the Waratahs.
25 minutes from the end of regulation time, the formation of the British islands found a flaw thanks to Alex Mitchell who, out of the melee, fegged on the closed side to go to Lady before seeing Smith to pass the transformation. The end of the match saw the two teams neutralize for a victory for the eleven points lions (10-21), without the manner being at the rendezvous. A feeling that Andy Farrell will try to erase this Wednesday during the match against the Brumbies, on the lawn of Canberra.
