Billy Twelvetrees, or 36 as he's known since his Leicester days, has been called up as general backs cover for the Lions.

Zebo has been called up as expected.

Sorry to see Healy is gone. That's a real blow for the Lions. hopefully Grant gets enough game time to convince Gatland and Co. that he's the man to start the tests. On Wilkinson, I never saw him as a saviour, rather the lesser of 2 evils if Sexton gets injured and then either Wilko or Farrell...

Would like to say fair play to the Force fans, best crowd I've heard all year from an Aus team. Really created a great atmosphere.

Farrell scores a try, no one laid a hand on him. 62-17 another easy one for Halfpenny from under the sticks.

Great combination between Manu and BOD really nice try. Lions break 50. 55-17, finally an easy one for Halfpenny. Murray and Sexton off, Youngs and Farrell on.

Nice try there from McCaffrey 48-17 after conversion right in front.

HJ I'm beginning to think we're long lost twins separated at birth. A bit of telepathy going on tonight.

Tommy Bowe in, in the corner. Another touchline conversion for Halfpenny. Beginning to suspect the Lions players are trying to give him practice in kicking from the touchline. Slots it again 48-10.

I was just thinking there's no need for Farrell to be on the tour at all with how well Halfpenny is kicking. Also what a kick to the corner from Sexton.

Vunipola rumbles over in the corner after some good work from the backs and a storming run from George North. Halfpenny from the touchline again and nails it. 41-10.

Sheehan slots the conversion 34-10.

Well done the Force glad they got over the line, they deserved that try. 34-8 with a conversion to come.

Heaslip over for a try. Lions stretched the Force from one side of the 22 to the other and then it was just a jog in for Heaslip as the space opened up. Halfpenny lands the conversion again from the sideline. 34-3.

Lions saying Healy may have just sprained an ankle, off to hospital for a scan to confirm.

Halfpenny slots again with ease. 27-3 halftime score. Healy injury the big talking point. Also a possible citing for him if he did indeed bite Sheehan.

Tom Croft in, in the corner, after the hooter. 25-3 conversion to come from Halfpenny from the same touchline as the BOD try.

Healy off on the trolley. Early days but doesn't look good for the rest of the tour for him. After the stopage Halfpenny slots a penalty to make it 20-3.

Stuart Barnes isn't everyone's cup of tea, but I do prefer the format of a dedicated play caller plus one former player for flavour. SOB has been excellent so far. But back row is very competitive and there's only 2 spots with Warburton as captain. Really hoping Healy is OK.

Halfpenny bisects the uprights from the touchline. 17-3 now.
