‘We’re not playing a pub team’: Itoje warns Lions of wounded Wallabies at MCG
The British & Irish Lions are set to face the Wounded Wallabies in the second Test match at the Melbourne Cricket Ground on Saturday. Maro Itoje, a Lions legend, has warned his team not to underestimate the Wallabies, stating that they are "a proper team" and can "punish you." The tourists are the favorites to win the series, having won the first Test, but Itoje emphasizes the importance of creating special memories for the team. The Lions will be looking to secure their first back-to-back series win against the same opponents since 2013, when they were led to victory by Sam Warburton.
