Johnny Sexton and Ben Te’o are on a serious session in New Zealand

That blazer is very very questionable Jonny

After six gruelling weeks in New Zealand, the British and Irish Lions certainly deserve an opportunity to relax.

They’ve played ten games, they’ve had countless pitch sessions, they’ve been flat out in the gym. The lads haven’t had much time to spare.

In fairness to them, despite ominous signs in the early stages, with losses to the Blues and the Highlanders, they’ve acquitted themselves well.

Despite a crushing 15-point loss in the first test, the Lions’ heads didn’t drop and they fought hard to win the second test and force a draw in the third.

They’ve earned the right to let their hair down.

That’s exactly what Jonny Sexton and Ben Te’o are doing.

Although it must be said, the Ireland number ten’s blazer is extremely questionable.

Kyle Sinckler and Jack McGrath are two boys not to be messed with on the streets of New Zealand on Saturday night.

Sinckler is ready for a big one.

They weren’t the only ones.

They say nobody’s able to have a session like rugby players, and well, Mako Vunipola’s Instagram story suggests that the boys are having a good time.

Toby Faletau and Vunipola were certainly enjoying themselves.

Well deserved for the boys.
