Lions deliver thrashing in Perth

The Lions are up and running Down Under! Join Alan Dymock and Charlie Morgan for reaction and analysis to the British and Irish Lions' emphatic 54-7 win over the Western Force. We also check in with the Telegraph's Chief Rugby Correspondent Gavin Mairs from the Optus Stadium to get his verdict on the win. There is praise for Henry Pollock, who was involved in almost everything both good and bad, while Ireland's Joe McCarthy put his hand up with a man of the match performance and Finn Russell impressed on his first appearance as well. But it was not all plain sailing. The Lions struggled with restarts throughout the game and there was a worrying hamstring injury for Tomos Williams after he scored his second try of the match. We also tackle your questions like usual! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
