Captain Sam Warburton says the thoughts of the British and Irish Lions are with those affected by Saturday night’s terror attack in London.
Three men were shot dead after killing seven and injuring 48 more with a van and knife attack in the capital.
The Lions played the first match of their tour in Whangarei on Saturday, beating the New Zealand Provincial Barbarians.

Warburton said: “The guys have woken up to some news of some unfortunate events that happened in London.
“I just wanted to wish those involved all the best wishes from the Lions players and management.
“Our thoughts are always with the people back home in Britain and Ireland. Our thoughts and deepest sympathies go out to the families and people involved in that incident.”
More spineless cowards trying to spread fear. We need to fight back and wipe out this pathetic existence #LondonBridgeAttack
