Scenes of jubilation here in Canberra as the hosts notch up an historic win over the tourists. Massive result for the Brumbies moving forward. The first defeat of Gatland's tour and if we're honest the hosts just about deserved the win. Very few positives for the Lions to take. Some good individual performances in amongst a poor team performance, most notabley Rob Kearney and Toby Faletau. Powerful impact off the bench but just too little too late for the Lions. Don't forget to tune in on Saturday when we'll be bringing you live coverage of the first test.

Those two kicks made all the difference

Can anyone answer this - why did the Lions keep going for the scrum instead of the posts?

Luke Bailey Jun 6

Should have had Farrell on from the start, needed those penaltys

Melvyn Lewis Jun 6

Resting them, a lot have got bumps and knocks. To have them come in to give the others that bit of extra time to get fit could be the difference between a win and a lose in the first test..

Colm Carey Jun 6

Best team won on the day, on the plus Kearney, Faletau, played well, on the negative Best, Barritt, Wade & Twelvetrees were without doubt absolutely shit..

Curtis J. Jun 6

Visser should have gone over maitland

Ed Kidney Jun 6

Damn it really thought it was there for the taking 5 minutes ago

Somehow the Brumbies earn a scrum. Thirty seconds left. Brumbies put in at the scrum.

Can't understand how Wade is there ahead of Visser
