Lions 2017: How Warren Gatland's players rated against New Zealand Provincial Barbarians

JOE MARLER: Solid shift, but the England prop never got into his game 6/10

RORY BEST: Far below the lofty standards that have driven Ireland to the top of the European game 5

KYLE SINCKLER: A fine Lions debut from a prop with soft hands and a hard edge 7

ALUN WYN JONES: Struggled to put his usual aggressive stamp on proceedings 5

IAIN HENDERSON: Sloppy in defence and attack and appeared off the pace too 4

ROSS MORIARTY: Aggressive as always and carried well, but made too many mistakes for his usual high standards 5

SAM WARBURTON (CAPT): Swam against the tide on a sloppy night and struggled to inspire the Lions to expected heights 5

TAULUPE FALETAU: The Wales dynamo was one of the few Lions men to impress, with try-saving tackles and strong carrying 8

GREIG LAIDLAW: No zip around the breakdown and no quick service to his backline left the Lions hamstrung 5

JOHNNY SEXTON: The Ireland fly-half trudged off with another potential injury and after a performance that leaves him struggling for a Test spot 4

TOMMY SEYMOUR: Very quiet night on the wing from the big Scottish flyer 5

BEN TE’O: The Worcester star looked composed on the ball but still failed to make his power tell to full effect 6

JONATHAN JOSEPH: Failed to get his quick feet into action in space 5

ANTHONY WATSON: Took the winning try well to ease an otherwise frustrating night 7

STUART HOGG: Well below the pace here, too many mistakes and looked shaky at the back 5
