Hello and welcome to Ultimate Rugby's live coverage of Lions v Crusaders. This is the third test of the Lions tour and having lost last time out against the Blues they will be desperate to register a win. The Crusaders have been near untouchable this season with 14 wins out of 14 games and will be the toughest opposition the Lions have faced.

Any decent links?

Kind of agree with the last comment. Spot on.

There seems to be a big lack of motivation. As if the tests are the only thing that the squad have their minds on. Holding back and dodging injury. The whole Lions tour format needs to be reviewed. Warm up matches should be in Europe and final 23 man squad travel for tests to Aus, NZ or SA.

We really need a win here

These games are all about finding the right combinations

Not the strongest he could have chosen...seems a bit disjointed

POM at 6, Tipuric at 7 anf Faletau at 8 with CJ on the bench. But Gatland won't leave Sam out.

Nooo
