The British and Irish Lions have achieved something truly special by winning a Test series - but for this squad to be properly celebrated for decades to come, they need to whitewash the Wallabies.

How good are they, compared to the series-winning teams of 1989, 1997 and 2013?

It's hard to judge given the opposition. Australia have had a tough few years. Part of me would love to have seen the Lions taken to the edge in three high-intensity Test matches in New Zealand or South Africa.

But you can only beat what is in front of you, and while Australia didn't turn up in Brisbane, they did in Melbourne and showed they can be a very decent Wallaby side.

Is that the level Australia are at now? Or was it a spike in performance born out of desperation? We'll find out a lot more about them this weekend and through the rest of their international season.
