NICK CAIN’S RATINGS
1. MAKO VUNIPOLA

Uncharacteristic lack of control. Yellow card and multiple penalties could have nobbled his team
RATING 4
2. JAMIE GEORGE

Coming into his own – made the break that led to Murray’s try, and line-out arrows on target
RATING 7
3. TADHG FURLONG

Scrum had greater ballast, and steaming stampede early on had NZ back-peddling
RATING 6.5
4. MARO ITOJE

Now wonder Lions fans chanted his name all evening. Stunning allround game from 22- year-old
RATING ...
