Re: The official Lions 2021 thread

I like the team. It's ballsy, talented and, for the most part, picked on form :thumbup: (Three too many Scotch, of course, but that's par for the course given that Gregor has been hired as Chief Quota Officer). Especially excited to watch Conan and Cowan-Dickie. They could be legends by the end of t...

Re: The official Lions 2021 thread

You've got to wonder about rugby punditry/analysis/narratives when we end up with (the usually excellent) Sam Warburton picking, in all seriousness, an Aki/Daly centre partnership a week out from the 1st Test.

The mind boggles.
