All the star names seemed to be still buzzing from the dramatic Test series win, the players pulled up stools, ordered pints, and joined in with punters as the sing-song kicked off. Footage shared online by TikToker Kai | Travels showed the squad belting out rugby anthems as fans circled around to record while the modest rugby star belted out tunes. Their well earned celebrations come after the gruelling Tour of Australia.

Elsewhere, boss Andy Farrell is in pole position to lead Lions again for the 2029 Tour of New Zealand. That's according to Lions CEO Ben Calveley, who has all but confirmed that the Ireland boss is the man to take charge of the next expedition to New Zealand. While Calveley stopped short of officially re-appointing Farrell, he made clear that the English-born Ireland boss is their preferred candidate for the prestigious role in four-year time.

Australia and Lions rugby stars are forced off the pitch mid-game due to threat of lightning 'We'll give him a bit of time off now - but there's no doubt he's in a very strong position for 2029. Let's put it that way.'
