Stephen Larkham played in three Rugby World Cups and multiple Bledisloe Cup encounters among his 102 Tests but the Wallabies great rates the 2001 British and Irish Lions series as the most brutal he's been involved in.
The peerless Australian flyhalf was integral to the Wallabies' 2-1 series win, but it came at a cost with Larkham the primary target for the Lions' fierce defence.
Now Brumbies coach and then their Super Rugby playmaker, Larkham's series came to an end in game two in Melbourne, where Australia levelled the series.
