Let me tell you how it feels to score a try for the Lions. Fantastic!

I was ecstatic when I knew I was coming on this tour and then I felt even more excited when I thought about pulling on a Lions shirt.

But to actually go over for a try while wearing that red jersey is just hard to describe.

We have all worked very hard over the past few weeks and living with each other has brought us close together.

Scoring tries is the aim in each game and so when you fulfil it then you feel very satisfied.

All credit to the Queensland side. They made it tough going for us, especially in the first half.

After the break things went much better. I felt our defence was particularly good and we got our patterns of play going in attack.

We scored 13 tries in the end and that was a good effort considering we only had two at half-time.

People have criticised that first 40 minutes and they have a right to do so. Having said that we were never in doubt that we would win, even when it was only 10-6 at half-time.

Headaches

It is always difficult when you play together as a team for the first time. For a lot of us it was also our first match for a few weeks which also doesn't help.

But we played for better field position in the second half and made sure we didn't get isolated.

We got on top and the tries followed pretty regularly after that.

Jason Robinson got all he headlines for his five tries and it was a pleasure to be on the same side as him.
