Maori All Blacks vs British & Irish Lions
- 1944
Lions record a huge win over the Maori All Blacks at Rotorua International Stadium with the scores reading 32-10 in favour of the Lions. The first half was bitterly close with sides going in at the break with just two points separating the sides. The second half saw the Lions dominate most noticeably in the set piece with the Lions scrum bullying the Maori All Blacks. The Lions kept piling on the pressure right to the final whistle and with a number of unforced errors coming from the Maoris the Lions ended up winning comfortably and gained some much needed momentum going forward to next weeks test against the All Blacks.
