Erasmus, who received a two-month ban from World Rugby for a 62-minute video that was critical of Australian referee Nic Berry after the first Lions test in South Africa in 2021, said he could see both sides of the argument.

Hugo Keenan scored a last-gasp try as the British & Irish Lions mounted a record comeback from 18 points down to overhaul a gallant Australia 29-26 and win the series with a test to spare.

Australia are bolstered by the availability of Will Skelton, David Porecki and Rob Valetini, who all add quality and size to Joe Schmidt’s forward pack. The Wallabies backline is unchanged from the first Test as Tom Lynagh is backed again at fly half.
