One big name returns for the Wallabies this week

Joe Schmidt has made several noteworthy changes ahead of today's final Test.

Tighthead prop Taniela Tupou comes into the fold for his first start in the green and gold, replacing Allan Alaatoa.

Meanwhile, flanker Rob Valetini has been replaced by Tom Hooper.

But the big news for the Wallabies is Nic White is set to return to start for the Wallabies in what'll be his final Test for Australia after he announced his retirement from international rugby.

Where else can we start but THAT incident

So the discourse for this week has related fully to Jac Morgan's controversial clear-out in the dying embers of last week's Test in Melbourne.

The Lions clinched a last-gasp victory and the series against Australia thanks to Hugo Keenan's try in the dying embers of the match.

It was a remarkable moment but there was controversy with Morgan's clear-out on Carlo Tizzano at the breakdown in the phase prior to Keenan's try being checked by Andrea Piardi.

Morgan's clear-out was deemed fair by the referees but Joe Schmidt had another opinion. The Aussie boss claimed that Morgan had hit Tizzano high on the next with an illegal clear-out and the try should not have stood.

But his comments prompted furious backlash from around the rugby world with James Haskell hitting out at Schmidt for his post-match comments...

Haskell hits back at Joe Schmidt's reaction to contentious moment

James Haskell believes Joe Schmidt has no reason to feel aggrieved by the contentious last-gasp decision that has overshadowed the British and Irish Lions' 29-26 victory against Australia.

Forget about running rugby...

It is absolutely lashing it down right now in Sydney.

In some areas of New South Wales, we've had nearly 15mm of rain falling over the last five hours.

Lions searching for a series sweep

So the final test of this year's British and Irish Lions tour to Australia is upon us, and Andy Farrell's side are looking for a whitewash here at the Accor Stadium in Sydney.

You'll have to go back to 1927 to find the last time the Lions won every game in a series...

However, Australia will be keen to prevent the total shutout with Joe Schmidt having named mulitple changes for the match.

Tighthead prop Taniela Tupou and Tom Hooper both come into the side while Nic White starts at scrum half.

Meanwhile, Farrell has named a fairly unchanged side to take on the Aussies, with Tom Curry and Sione Tuipulotu both starting over Jac Morgan and Bundee Aki.
