Well done Aus, shame you couldn't have found that grit a bit earlier.

Ikitau was fantastic

Selection questions should haunt Australia, why not select Tupou for the 23 in tests 1&2? Why wasn't Uru involved?
Farrell made some odd selections too, Aki, Freeman and Lowe were pretty poor throughout.
Tuipolutu if fit is a couple of levels above Aki these days.
Biggest question for me though is why do Australia wear orange instead of gold??

The non selection of Tom Hooper in test 2 should be added to that. Crazy.

Is Gleeson a better bench option than Hooper? Not for me.

A good point. I guess I was thinking more about starting players. Gleeson is a good bench option for when the game breaks up a little

Sheehan gave a good post match interview.

Unlike Itoje who was a bit of a tool after Tests 1 & 2

I'm not sure Tom Hooper would have been as effective last week - his game suits a grinding wet weather style. Last week was far more open

And managed to come off as an even bigger twat at the trophy presentation.

Go scream at a lineout you dozy fluffybunny.

@NTA what did he do?

Has not acknowledged the opposition once. Thanked RA for hosting while giggling at his team mates, but never even said the word "Wallabies".

Sheehan did.

Greatest ever Lions, my arse.

Didn’t see the game as was standing in a passport queue in Porto for most of it. Selections killed us, but fair play to the wobs, love how much they cared

That Porto one is the worst in recent times I can recall.

Nobody was bad
But like the Irish team, good sides who can match them physically have worked them out and nullify them

It’s Schmidt’s homework that Farrell is copying after all
