This Reds pack aren't much good, but Morgan has absolutely dominated today. Comms just said he was top tackler AND carrier for the Lions. He's been outstanding Really put his hand up for a test place He has been great! But Bin is ref in first test :uhoh: Morgan hasn’t played a bad game in his life....

The big problem with Oz rugby is kicking - it's diabolical. There is not a good flyhalf in the country. It's like we don't understand how the opposition applies pressure all the time.

For those interested in the strength of SR, this Reds side has 12 internationals (including 2 x ABs) and is missing 9 more through injury and Wobs’ duty.
The Lions should grind them down - a gulf in kicking, the Reds’ back row will be a step behind and they have a couple of potatoes on the bench.
