Rugby: Four-match ban for Sonny Bill Williams as Lions take high road


The British and Irish Lions coach joked after watching his side level the series with their 24-21 victory in Wellington that his side would be skiing and getting up to all sorts here, but the truth is slightly more mundane. Before leaving for a flight to Auckland, Williams said he was disappointed at his actions and that he felt he let the All Blacks down. "Obviously I'm really disappointed but happy to be able to get in there and say my piece," Williams said afterwards. Earlier, coach Hansen said: "One of our biggest mantras is 'team first' and he knows he let the team down but we can't go back and change it either. It's a fluid game, it's a fast game, it's a physical game and unfortunately he made a mistake and we've got to move on from it."
