The Lions are 1-0 in the Test series against Australia!

Alan and Charlie reflect on the match in Brisbane where the Lions overpowered the Wallabies. The Telegraph's Chief Rugby Correspondent Gavin Mairs checks in from the Suncorp Stadium and is full of praise for Tom Curry, who was sensational after having his selection doubted.

There's also praise for his back row partner Tadhg Beirne, who was named the official man of the match on the night.

The all Scottish midfield of Russell-Tuipulotu-Jones also comes in for high praise after an excellent performance, but there are questions to be asked of the back three and if their place is under threat for the second Test next weekend.

We also ask if Australia's second half performance will give them confidence of levelling the series next weekend and discuss what kind of team will play the final midweek match on Tuesday. We tackle all your questions as usual, too.

Alan and Charlie reflect on the Lions thrashing of the Australia/New Zealand invitational on Saturday morning in Adelaide.

The Telegraph's Chief Rugby Correspondent Gavin Mairs checks in after Andy Farrell's post match press conference to deliver news of Garry Ringrose's injury which has ruled him out of the opening test next Saturday.

There's praise for Huw Jones who could start at outside centre in Ringrose absence, elsewhere Ben Earl put in a man of the match display and could have forced himself into the test 23

Owen Farrell made his first appearance on tour as well, we ask if his impressive cameo will have been enough to see him feature against the Wallabies.

Alan and Charlie unpack the latest Lions win down under over the Brumbies in Canberra!

Andy Farrell picked what many considered to be his strongest side on Wednesday morning but the de facto Test team failed to fully click in a number of areas.

The biggest concern came in the first half when full-back Blair Kinghorn was taken off with an injury leaving the Lions looking very light at full-back. Our Chief Rugby Correspondent Gavin Mairs joins the show to discuss what Andy Farrell had to say about the Scotland international.

Elsewhere, there were positive performances from Ollie Chessum, Dan Sheehan and Gary Ringrose On the other end of the scale, we ask if Tom Curry has played himself out of the Test side with an underwhelming performance at openside.
