CAPE TOWN: British & Irish Lions captain Alun Wyn Jones is warning of a South Africa backlash after the tourists went ahead at the weekend in the test series with a well-earned 22-17 win in Cape Town.

"We know what we’ve achieved but we also know what we haven’t achieved. There is still plenty to do and this is a three-test series," said the 35-year-old Jones, who played the entire game despite dislocating his shoulder only a month ago. "We are only a third done and that message has already been planted. It’s a time for everyone to take stock of where we are and be ready to move on to next weekend."Jones said the Lions had not panicked after four penalties put the Boks nine points ahead at halftime.
