Morgan is about a foot off the ground and hits on the back. It's not a penalty. Yep. Back of the neck. You can't just enter a ruck by sticking your head down and claim foul play when it gets hit ... Just fvck off He was holding the top of his head when he did the Hollywood roll on the ground. Cvnt ...

Cracking comeback

Fabulous rugby

That’s a shocker

Delayed to 11:05 now

Shit 2nd half. Lions lost all their gainline dominance once Curry and Sheehan went off. Aus kept hold of the ball and weren’t forced to kick like they were in the 1st.

forrester

If that’s a try!

forrester

Curry

forrester

Jack who?

forrester

Tackle complete?

Sorry Message, think you've got it the wrong way round, Asher only plays TH for Sale. Sanderson memorably described tightheads with his skillset as "Rare as rocking horse shit" :lol: Yep. Realised that as soon as i posted. Would have been strange marler provoking against a loose head. #B4L Yeah com...

Clarkson? Seriously? You should be applauding another Irish player making the Lions. He’s been good this season, was a rock for Leinster, barely put a foot wrong. Who are the alternatives? It’s not like he’ll likely be playing a Test. Opoku-Fordjour was in the Portugal training squad as cover so wi...

Little shout out to a few players who did themselves no harm. Seb Atkinson - Must admit, I'm dubious sometimes about Gloucester picks because there's usually a glaring weakness in their game somewhere. But he's been excellent twice now and a real option going forward for the 12 jersey. Roebuck/Muir...

Underhill MoM for me

Why kick there?

Tom Willis is a beast

WTF is Steward doing there?

forrester

forrester

Lots of decent performances but difficult to judge when the oppo are so poor.

forrester

Not much in that for me, harsh yellow

forrester

Ben White has been great

forrester

LCD up and about

forrester

Never forward

forrester

If the Lions can keep the pace up this could be a blow out, AUNZ look like they can’t be bothered once there’s a line break.

Mack, White, Keenan, Morgan..

Lads that have put themselves into the test squad.
Jones, M. Smith

Out of it.
VDM, Ryan,F. Smith.

I still think it’ll be Ringrose

To be fair, he’s tackled like that his entire career, it’s a miracle he hasn’t had more of those.

forrester

Short ball to Smith and he walks in, no need to wide there.

forrester

VDM has been awful this tour

forrester

Northmore is an odd call. Would have expected Beard or Ojomoh to be in front of him, especially as he’s been playing 12 for most of the season.

Hawk97 wrote: ↑Tue Jul 08, 2025 2:01 pm So apparently Tom Willis, at the weekend, achieved 2nd overall all time for Carrying + Tackles stats (he had 40 combined). And that was in 60 mins, all others in top 10 were 80 mins

The guy is a freak

Beat 11 defenders as well, a record for a tier 1 forward.

forrester

I'm really not sure how good ojomoh is or what his ceiling is- but he's earned a run out. Surely the same is true of all England's options at 13? It's even true of Marchant. His ceiling is pretty clear, but is he actually any good at the moment? Someone needs to put their hand up and make the case ...

RodneyRegis wrote: ↑Sat Jul 05, 2025 10:53 pm Atkinson 17 tackles. Impressive. Would like to see him get more ball in early phase play. Preferably with anyone but slade outside him.

Only on the pitch for 55 minutes as well, it was a good effort.

forrester

Bit hard to disagree with this. Perhaps only Mitchell did himself any favours. I thought Cummings and Jones were good. Pleased for Cummings- must have been a difficult few days for him. I don’t recall him putting a foot wrong and did a lot of good stuff too. Good comeback after last week.

forrester

Well that was shit. Most of the test side to come from the Wednesday team now, and it’ll be interesting to see how they handle switching both squads around over the next two weeks.

Yes, I reckon it’s relatively easy to pick the majority of the 23 now.

14 just flopped over off his feet and stopped the clear out on 7.

Fin Smith has been surprisingly poor for me. Not really doing anything at all. Can’t blame a fly half when he’s got no options outside him apart from Jones. And if Earl is his only carrying option up front - it’s too predictable Hopefully the bench offers more We've made plenty of line breaks. He's...

Beirne playing himself off the tour He looks old. Old and knackered. He’s not the only one, overtraining maybe? In truth there are a ton of players playing themselves out of contention tonight. From the starting team I reckon there’s no more than a handful that will be involved in the first test now.
