i thought the lions played magnificently.u're sitting there thinking, they should be doing that a bit more often. that was probably one of the best test tries i've ever seen. they 110w best test tries i've ever seen. they now must win both the many tests if they are to avoid a series defeat. but tonight new zealand demonstrated here at eden parkjust how tough they are going to be to beat on home soil. so a disappointing start to the test series for the lions. and a disappointing day for scotland too, who ended their summer tour with a 27—22 defeat to fiji. after last week‘s historic win against australia, the scots couldn‘t follow up, and were edged out by an inspired fijian team. the result means a first defeat for gregor townsend since he took over as head coach. alastair lamont is in fiji for us. yes, a disappointing end to what had up until now been a very successful tour. in truth this was a patchy performance from the scots. ross ford on his 110th record—breaking appearance did get the opening try of the match, but back

i think the nature of the way the lions play, they establish dominance up lions play, they establishtion on the back foot. it's not often the new zealand all blacks are on the back foot but the hope i think from a lions supporter‘s point of view is if they can establish dominance upfront and the ball will be slightly wet, it's been raining on and off all day, if they can get that dominance upfront then they've been bold in their selection in the backs, the lions, and if they can take their chances then the feeling is they mightjust pull off an historic victory and it's certainly something i'm very happy to witness and hopefully that could be the case. we look forward to it. gavin hastings, thank you. arnold schwarzenegger has warned that tackling global warming must not be seen as a political issue. the actor said that everyone breathed the same air and it shouldn't be a question of right versus left. he met french president emmanuel macron, who will later give a speech proposing a global environment pact. laura westbrook reports. i'm here with president macron, we're talking about e

new zealand with the 1993 lions, says...n, williejohn mcbride and the man scoring here, gareth edwards beat the all blacks in the test series. sir gareth as he now is, has been sharing his thoughts on the class of 2017. it's it‘s all right keeping the all blacks in check and trying to squeeze the life out of them, squeeze the life out of them, squeeze the life out of them, squeeze the pips out of them so to speak which i think has been the lions‘ philosophy and he‘s also got some players in there who could make some players in there who could make some damage if they do get good possession and that is really the secret of it all. everybody wants to know how you beat the all blacks, well, it is about taking chances when the opportunity arises so he‘s got form players who are quite capable of doing that and it‘s going to bea capable of doing that and it‘s going to be a very interesting first test. ross ford is poised to become scotland‘s record cap holder after being named in the side to face fiji. the edinburgh hooker will wi

the lions had one chance, but couldn't take it. there is time to improve.ow it is a match they should have won. there is so much strength and depth in this country, i don't think there will be a lot of difference between the super rugby sides and the all blacks. they have been together for seven months and the all blacks are coming together cold. there is a massive amount of depth and strength andi massive amount of depth and strength and i don't think a lot of difference between the teams. you can't come here and expect to give more than ten penalties away and think you will win. when we got an opportunity we gave them another out and they put the pressure back on to us. and they put the pressure back on to us. look, it's something we need to work on. luckily it is something we can fix. we got into our structures well and took it to them in some regards. but i think we just sort of let them get into the game with the penalties and we just have to look at that going into the next game on saturday. so a reminder of the quality throughout new zealand rugby an

that underlines what a challenge this is for the lions, the biggest in world by for the lions, the biggestugby you have to say. this is a team that's only been together a few weeks, they are about to take on the world champions in their own backyard but they received a motivational boost last night from brian o'driscoll, legendary irish centre, a four—time tourist, he handed out the testjerseys to the lions and his talk was cruelly ended 12 years ago against new zealand in the opening minutes by a controversial tackle and he spoke about what it meant for him to be a lyon and those words would be powerful for peter o marney, lyon and those words would be powerfulfor peter o marney, the text captain, such a remarkable rise from him when he couldn't get into the ireland team three months ago it. we spoke to his father yesterday and he described it as mind—boggling but no one said it will be easy in auckland but there a positivity and momentum about this lions side although whether that will be there come the final whistle is another question. katie, thank you, katie gornall in auckland. engla

but in the lions you also have great players as well. watch on the edge of your seat for 80 minutes. buti and watch on the edge of your seat for 80 minutes. but i think that's the tradition of rugby, why the british lions get so much attention around the world, is the only chance from players from ireland who beat the all blacks but the welsh and scottish have a chance to beat the all blacks in one team. sam warburton was left out, what do you make of that? i think that shows you the of players he has. when you have players who are performing, it doesn't matter who is captain, the coach will have players on form. he has a good scrum, a great set of back rowers, and that what happened. if you don't perform, you get kicked out. stay with us. hello there. world weather stories seem to have been dominated by extreme heat. more on that in a moment. but i want a recount and storm cindy. she made landfall on thursday morning, fragmented as she did into two main areas of rain. we saw 200 millimetres of rainfall from this system, which you can se

in my state of kansas we have more than 270 lions clubs. i have been a member of lions clubs since i graduated from college and went to work and got involved with the community and have seen firsthand howleyons clubs -- how lions clubs make a difference in the community they are in as well as their reach around the globe in addressing problems in their community and humanitarian needs around the world. lions are committed to caring for those less fortunate, from young to old, and they do so in a way that shows care and compassion. it's all about the right motivation. they care about people and they make a difference. it is this selfless service and commitment to a greater good that is needed in our country today. in the face of serious challenges, i believe that those who volunteer their time and their resources in community civic clubs and not for profits, in schools, fundraisers, churches, and charities are the ones who have the greatest impact on other people's lives. this kind of involvement at the local level has the potential to make

wellington offers a fresh start for the lions, and a chance for them to reinvigorate the pack. gatland has gambled with his selection, and opted for a change in style. warren gatland has made a bold change to his team for the second test. he's included owen farrell and jonny sexton in the same midfield, despite them not having started a game together so far this tour. now, if that's a surprise, this next change was expected. maro itoje and sam warburton come into the forward pack as the lions try and match the all blacks physically. you play rugby because you enjoy the physical side of the sport, and that's definitely the case for me. so when you come off second best there, it does hurt you as a player. we're looking forward to trying to get a win and making it 1—1, but if not, then you can look back on the game and put your hands up and say, perhaps we were beaten by the better team. in their efforts to salvage the series through sexton and farrell, the lions have decided to go on the attack. it's a risky strategy. one man who faced the same situation as captain back in 1993 t

the lions played magnificently.n, you are sitting there thinking, should we do that more often. that was probably one of the test drives i have seen. tonight felt pretty good. it did take a moment in that game. it could have gone the other way at some stages. i think the guts and character that reassured to hang in there. when we got opportunities, i guess we took them a couple in the second half. that was pleasing as well. elsewhere — scotland and ireland have wrapped up their summer tours — gregor townsend suffered his first defeat in charge of scotland as they lost 27—22 to fiji. but ireland completed a series whitewash over japan with a 35—13 win in tokyo. the first match of the women's cricket world cup is underway. hosts england won the toss and put india into bat this morning in derby. india are outsiders for this tournament. but their openers have made a good start. india 69—0. final practice is underway ahead of qualifying for the azerbaijan grand prix. it's not been going well forjolyon palmer this season

to win this series will be the lions greatest task. one of the greatest teams in the world. we had the option you got in the first half in the second half and we did not convert to very good chances. look, we spoke about this already. seven, eight penalties, you going to struggle as a team. the all blacks have not played champagne rugby. very direct upfront so we need to make sure that we are better in those areas in terms of combating next week. scotland and ireland have wrapped up their summer tours. gregor townsend suffered his first defeat in charge of scotland as they lost 27—22 to fiji. ireland completed a series whitewash over japan with a 35—13 win in tokyo. the first match of the women's cricket world cup is underway. england won the toss and put india in to bat in derby. despite being big outsiders for this determinant, their openers made an excellent start. both past 50. india are currently under and 65 41 32 overs. that is 50. india are currently under and 65 4132 overs. that is a you'll spot for now. we will happen more in

to the lions will lose the series if they fail to beat the all blacks.orrespondent is in wellington looking ahead to the big showdown. the all—importa nt second test is just a day away, and the all blacks captain seems pretty relaxed about it. most teams would shut themselves away with such a big game on the horizon, but not new zealand. i think it's a good balance, getting out and interacting with people from around the city, and taking your mind off it. so, fair to say the boys are pretty relaxed, but they know there's a big challenge tomorrow. the all blacks took a grip on the series with a ruthless win in auckland as the lions found themselves outfought and outthought by 30 points to 15. there were some encouraging flourishes from warren gatland's side, but after all the hype, it was a deflating defeat. wellington offers a fresh start for the lions, and a chance for them to reinvigorate the pack. gatland has gambled with his selection, and opted for a change in style. warren gatland has made a bold change to his team for the second test. he's include

so far, in new zealand, the lions have found hazards at every turn.ike the warmer conditions i think?

wherever they go, the heat is always on the lions.yers this was a last chance to impress. the opportunities were there, said gatland, althouthoe marler may have squandered his. his departure to the sin bin forced the introduction of scottish prop allan dell. one of gatland's controversial late call—ups, he made quite the cameo. after two defeats, a win of any description would do for the midweek lions, who just wanted a break. like here throuthack nowell. in the second half, the lions bullied their hosts. a penalty try stretched their lead but there was more than just brute force on show. nowell proved they could do the pretty stuff too. this was becoming a relaxing day trip for the lions, a light work—out and then a leisurely stroll over. jared payne convinced the chiefs the game was up. for gatland, a waikato legend, this was the perfect homecoming on the toughest of tours. we said if we had to drop a couple of games, it wouldn't be the end of the world because it was about improving and getting better from week to week and i think

the lions ethos has always been about the greater good. every game has its importance.ry time you put on the lions shirt, you have to leave it in a better place than you founded. gatlin was briefly part of the team 11 years ago. on the touchline tomorrow, no thoughts will linger. the chief executive of australia's rugby union bill pulver, has offered to walk away from the job if the board tell him he's not wanted, when they hold an emergency general meeting on tuesday. there is anger from state rugby boards, over a planned decision to cut either the melbourne rebels or the perth—based western force as a franchise. the australian game is in crisis with none of their super rugby teams able to beat their new zealand counterparts this season. add to that, the wallabies shock defeat to scotland last weekend and there is a demand to know where things are going wrong. obviously after that win, a first for scotland in sydney, they believe they're on the brink of something special. attention now turns to the final game of their tour which is in fiji, from where alasdair lamont r
