Lions 47 NSW Waratahs 17

The Lions machine kept rolling at the ANZ Stadium in Sydney last night.  The forwards had the look of a test team, but injuries in the backs meant the Lions weren't at full strength.  But they were still too good for a valiant Waratahs team who scored 2 good tries.  Leigh Halfpenny was outstanding for the Lions, scoring 2 tries and kicking all the goals and penalties in sight.  Tom Croft played well at blindside scoring a blistering try, and Sam Warburton acquitted himself reasonably well to cement probably his Test start.

YIC is off to Canberra next to stay with Peter Miller and family for the next leg of the tour.  Watch this space for news of the Canberra Millers.
