LIONS 13 - N.Z. MAORI 19

It's not the end of the world, or even the tour, but it's certainly not good news. The loss itself is not necessarily the problem, it's the fact that they were on the back foot for pretty much the whole game, and almost never looked threatening. As Woodward said, the final scoreline flattered the Lions.

They'd better shine this Wednesday, especially as Woodward appears to have picked a pretty much full strength back line (the only possible area of contention for the test team would be Wilkinson or Jones at no. 10), or the whole thing is going to fall apart.
