We're not ready for All Blacks - Back

Neil Back admitted the Lions could struggle against the All Blacks despite getting back to winning ways against Wellington today.

The 36-year-old flanker, who helped a stuttering Lions to a 23-6 win over Wellington, said: "We are a long way off beating the All Blacks and I know that having achieved a win with England here in

2003. We are making good progress but still have a lot of work to do before the First Test in 10 days."

Wellington coach John Plumtree criticised the Lions, saying: "We would have been beaten by 60 points by the All Blacks on that performance and it is hard for the Lions because they haven't got a lot of time before the First Test.

"You need continuity against the All Blacks and the Lions didn't show much of that in this game."

Jonny Wilkinson made his first appearance of the tour and although he kicked 13 points, he lacked his normal fluency, missing two penalties and a drop goal.
