Re: Lions Lions Lions
Agreed. Hansen was a shite pick, almost entirely without merit. Why the Irish are directing so much crap at VDM. It's all deflection on this speed bump. Really wouldn't be going down the route of comparing defence. Also, they play opposite wings, why would anyone have a go at VDM to promote Hansen?...
