British and Irish Lions

Denney, 31, is retiring from professional rugby while Rauluni, who only signed for the club last summer and started nine games, has returned to Fiji.

Bristol chief executive David White explained: "Mark has decided he would like to pursue his professional interests outside rugby, a decision that is fully supported by Bristol Rugby.

"Jake, having played for the Barbarians in May, has returned home to consider his future options."

The British & Irish Lions will dust themselves down after losing their unbeaten record to the Brumbies and be back at work in a positive frame of mind from Wednesday, according to 2009 Test full back Rob Kearney.

With Tuesday's trip to Canberra next on the agenda for The British & Irish Lions, we take a look back at their last clash with the Brumbies, a match that went right down to the wire.

The British & Irish Lions went to the home of one of the two schools that played fixtures against them on the inaugural tour in 1888 this week, Sydney Grammar School.
