Lions Head coach Warren Gatland says he didn’t use his front row replacements during today’s draw because he wanted to give potential test players as much game time as possible.

The visitors drew 31-all with the Hurricanes in Wellington with Tommy Seymour scoring two tries and George North also going over.

The Lions were 31-17 up in the second half however Iain Henderson was yellow carded and during that time the Canes scored two converted tries.
