Final: Wales 31 Scotland 19.Overall standings: 1 New Zealand 142pts; 2 Australia 134.. Life with the 2001 Lions took a peculiar turn in Hampshire yesterday as percussion replaced concussion as rugby's trendiest occupational hazard. By the time the Australia-bound tourists gathered for training after their latest team bonding project ­ an impromptu Samba session ­ David Young was struggling with a calf injury, Mike Catt was complaining of back trouble and Danny Grewcock had turned an ankle. There would have been fewer casualties had they played the "1812 Overture", complete with live weapons. Life with the 2001 Lions took a peculiar turn in Hampshire yesterday as percussion replaced concussion as rugby's trendiest occupational hazard.

By the time the Australia-bound tourists gathered for training after their latest team bonding project ­ an impromptu Samba session ­ David Young was struggling with a calf injury, Mike Catt was complaining of back trouble and Danny Grewcock had turned an ankle. There would have been fewer casualties had they played the "1812 Overture", complete with live weapons. Graham Henry, the head coach, pulled rank instantly by declaring: "Everyone was out of tune, except me." Over the three remaining days of their short stay near Aldershot ­ the Lions are using the Army's rugby ground at Queen's Avenue ­ this latest British Isles ensemble must consign their bum notes to the dustbin of history and start performing with the cohesive purity of the Berlin Philharmonic.Lawrence Dallaglio's rapid recovery from the knee injury he suffered during Wasps' Zurich Championship semi-final defeat by Bath will help no end. The England loose forward took a full part in a heavy-duty contact session in sweltering conditions that were as much Queensland as Queen's Avenue. "Lawrence has done everything we've asked of him thus far," said Donal Lenihan, the manager.

"We'll assess his situation again towards the end of the week, but the medical opinion we're receiving suggests he'll be fit to play in two or three weeks We're not setting dates. He's coming along so well that there is little point us backing ourselves into a corner."The other Lions casualties are not seriously at risk: Young, Catt, Grewcock and Iain Balshaw, who damaged a shoulder joint during Bath's play-off defeat by Leicester, will be on the plane to Perth this Friday Just as well, too. Judging by the strength of the 30-man squad named by the Wallaby coach, Rod Macqueen, the tourists will need all the manpower they can muster. Macqueen felt able to exclude Jim Williams, the No 8 who performed so effectively throughout the ACT Brumbies' triumphant Super 12 campaign, as well as three players who turned out for Australia against England at Twickenham last November: the scrum-half Sam Cordingley, the outside-half Rod Kafer and the tight-head prop Fletcher Dyson. Five uncapped players ­ Graeme Bond, Nathan Sharpe, Justin Harrison, Nick Stiles and Ben Darwin ­ were called up, with Macqueen explaining: "We have only one warm-up match, against the New Zealand Maori, so we need to peak immediately. I've picked the people in form."Even though the Wallabies will be without the injured Stirling Mortlock, their goal-kicking centre, and Bill Young, their No 1 loose head, the squad is shot through with quality.
