British and Irish Lions captain Tadhg Beirne said the side were again limited by “too many errors and turnovers” in their stuttering 21-10 win over the New South Wales Waratahs in Sydney. <\/b><\/p>\n
The tourists claimed their third successive win on Australian soil but, two weeks out from the first Test against the Wallabies, the performance contained a host of errors in promising attacking positions. <\/p>\n
“It was quite frustrating out there that we couldn’t get a hold of things in the game the way we would have liked to,” said Beirne, who led the side in the absence of tour skipper Maro Itoje. <\/p>\n
“I’d a few dropped balls myself and individual errors cost us a bit of continuity in terms of our attack.<\/p>\n
“That’s something we’re definitely\u00a0going to have to look at and figure out how to improve\u00a0so it doesn’t happen again.”<\/p>\n
Beirne noted that Andy Farrell’s side “kept at it” and, with a more clinical streak, could have racked up the type of 50-point tally they had against the Reds and Western Force. <\/p>\n
While those victories also contained similar passages lacking in rhythm, Beirne thought their latest win displayed the strides being made elsewhere.<\/p>\n
“We’ve had a lot of improvements,” added the 33-year-old Munster forward.<\/p>\n
“Our scrum improved a lot, our line-out was really good. We’ll take some really good positives as well.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
