Unchanged line-up for Lions 3td Test. Garland has a history of finishing strong – certainly good enough to win though they’re underdogs.

So much for the power of 4
No Scots involved in #LionNZ2017 tests
First time since 1950 that only 3/4 have been represented in the tests

Huge boost that @lionsofficial can field an unchanged side. Loads of momentum and yet another edge goes the Lions way. #lovebeingafan

Henderson? POM? Why AWJ & even Warburton are still there is beyond me #LionsNZ2017 #NZLvBIL

Feel robbed of seeing certain players play for the #Lions guys that deserve their chance being kept out by Gats favourites #LionsNZ2017

Who would have predicted that Lions would be settled side into 3rd test and NZ would have element of shit or bust? #LionsNZ2017

To those questioning MV selection, front 3 train and play as a unit, way too late in the tour to change one of the front 3 #bbcrugby

Love or hate selection, agree or disagree. Now is the time to get behind the #Lions As big if not bigger than a World 🏆 final.

You see this is why there’s growing indifference to the Lions in Scotland #LionsNZ2017 pic.twitter.com/0RXI7dckpB
