S4, E14: Autumn Series ends and British & Irish Lions tour taking shape with Sean Maloney

A jam-packed Autumn Series has come to an end, with Australia pushing hosts Ireland right to the limit in Dublin on Saturday, with the Irish ultimately holding on.

Australia have now played all four of the home nations in back-to-back weeks and will return home with two wins, and what could have been a third.

Today, the guys look at how next summer’s British & Irish Lions tour down under is shaping up, as well as picking their match, player and surprise of the Autumn.

To do so, Ollie Little, Nick Cain and Brendan Gallagher are joined by Test Rugby and Super Rugby commentator Sean Maloney!
