A good man for the women

Unreal. I honestly thought it would a 5-0 whitewash across all games. To win the the seies 2-1 and win 1 vs the maori. Some achievement

What teams have won a series in New Zealand?

Lions 1971
France 1994
Australia 1986

Wikipedia says South Africa have only won one series there in 1937.

Is that it?

The Springboks in 1937 the last to win a 3 test series in New Zealand from 1-0 down. Before this morning, that is.

Hopefully Ireland winning might kill off the Lions concept.

The Irish rugby team will be greeted like heroes returning from war on Monday at the airport. Depending on how the hurling goes I might head out myself to greet them.

How appropriate that Ireland’s 32 county team finished on 32 points.

Has it ever happened before that someone won a series down there after losing first test?
