12. Ben Te'o 7
Struggled to make presence felt until bang... made a couple of line breaks. Power running a welcome weapon.
11. George North 5
Struggled to hit a 7th minute gap in defence. Compass needed a rejig on defence. Couldn't find customary rhythm.
10. Johnny Sexton 7
Combination with Davies had some shining moments. Wipers kick 27th minute into corner flag was a treat.
9. Conor Murray 8
Tick box for box-kicking alone. Looks like he punts at a basketball hoop for practice. Halfback skills executed with aplomb.
8. Taulupe Faletau 8
Strength in tackle. Coughed up to Ngatai in 28th but was a kauri for his team. No Hone Heke could cut him down.
7. Sean O'Brien 8
Tenacious running and unrelenting work around ruck. Sam Warburton has a tough job ousting him from No 7 test jersey.
6. Peter O'Mahony 7
Kept team's line speed effective, which prevented Maori moving ball quickly. Credible display as captain.
5. George Kruis 7
Charge to knock down Lowe seemed legit. Energy hunting box kicks. Olivia Newton-John award for getting physical.
4. Maro Itoje 7
Body position struggled on occasion but his athleticism compensated. Seemed omnipresent for first tackles off ruck.
3. Tadhg Furlong 9
Direct running and support in early phases. Scrummaging against him looks like trying to shift a refrigerator.
2. Jamie George 7
At heart of drive for the tour's fourth try. Eventually awarded to P.Enalty. A compelling effort with front row chums.
1. Mako Vunipola 8
No one seemed to get utu by tying his shoelaces together. Never relinquished his duties at the scrum or in tackle.

New Zealand Maori
15. James Lowe 5
Couple of odd grubbers and chips. Defence suspect on Davies break. Looked like imagination was bereft of options.
14. Nehe Milner-Skudder 6
Grubber to break structure set up Messam try. Efforts to thread defence shut down like Waterview Tunnel.
13. Matt Proctor 4
Left with what looked a devastating shoulder injury. A subdued game until that point with muted opportunities.
12. Charlie Ngatai 6
Good counter-attacking in 28th minute with grubber but limited chances as Warrenball smother gave tour a boost.
11. Rieko Ioane 5
Minimal input. Steve Hansen and Co will need to ensure wings have a more bespoke role when the tests roll in.
10. Damian McKenzie 5
The Kupe of the team but couldn't navigate with so few stars. Dropped a 57th minute ball to underline the woe.
9. Tawera Kerr-Barlow 6
Try-saving tackle of Davies in 17th minute. Looked hungry trying to get ball invested in runners. Yellow card cost 14 points.
8. Liam Messam 6
Tane Mahuta of the pack looked exhausted after Lions initial blast and was on back foot most of the game.
7. Elliot Dixon 5
Looked a tough workout ferreting through the Lions' warren at ruck and maul. Hard to generate swift regurgitation.
6. Akira Ioane 6
Looked mobile and fend unveiled on occasion but too few opportunities to stamp mark. Nabbing possession an issue.
5. Tom Franklin 6
In thick of action preventing George try in 49th minute. Maori scrum power wilted against red blanket.
4. Joe Wheeler 6
Rigorous tackling at times, but who wasn't putting shoulders to work throughout? Endured northern punishment.
3. Ben May 6
Bruising tackling for periods but a gruelling day against such a commanding opposition, especially at scrum.
2. Ash Dixon 6
Led haka effectively but couldn't translate that leadership and practice into his charges against a relentless wall.
1. Kane Hames 4
Conceded penalty try as 15-man Lions closed on 14-man Maori prey. Look exhausted early in second half.
