Andy Farrell is on alert for the injured Australian side after the British and Irish Lions won 27-19 in Brisbane on Saturday.
Tourists dominated most of the match, especially the first half, with the Wallabies scoring two late tries to get closer to the score.
In particular, the Lions were in control with his starting XV on the pitch as Jamison Gibson Park and Finn Russell piloted the ship.

However, in the series’ line, Farrell recognizes that Australia will throw everything in Melbourne in a week and improve.
“It’s not only Australia’s second game (of the season), but it’s far better for that, but what it means to them and how proud they are, it means the world to them,” Farrell told his post-game press conference.
“We need to make sure they are ready to be 100% at their best.
“I think we need a better performance from what we showed today to win the W next week.
“As far as Wallabies are concerned, Australia is right there. I don’t care about history, but I’m still going forward.
“What will happen here in the next few years? I can only see Australia through the roof as long as it relates to it.”
Farrell also warned his own side that they couldn’t afford to get off, as they did again later in the match.
“Well, that shouldn’t happen,” he said.
“It shouldn’t happen, and we talk about it. We talk about being so focused all the time about being the next moment. It certainly shouldn’t happen.
“We need to deal with that too.”
