Andy Farrell, coach of the British & Irish Lions, assured the media that his team emerged from Saturday's encounter against the New South Wales Waratahs largely unscathed, following the late withdrawal of Henry Pollock due to a minor calf strain.

Despite the victory, Farrell expressed dissatisfaction with the team's error-laden performance, suspecting the Waratahs might have altered pitch conditions to their advantage, complicating the Lions' efforts.
