Not a troll

that’s the reality the lions will wipe the floor 3-0 in soulless atmosphere less stadiums force fed at atmosphere on every stoppag

cue then it’s all the Nh ref fault etc etc , that’s already so prevalent on here

all the talk is France needed to be added to the rotation and they will

far bigger $$

mark words this is the last tour to australia for 16 -20yrs
You sound like a real authority.

Ignore that peanut.

There is no chance the big wigs in Northern hemisphere rugby are giving up their chance to sun their arseholes in an Aussie winter once every 12 years.
Zero clue.
The administration in the north are sadly too happy to stick the boot into australia and that goes back to the animosity from the John o Neill days

100% the lions won’t be here in 12 yrs . As I said sadly.

Lions tour all the way across the English Channel sounds like a real adventure.
France are too frequent an opponent. You know how they play, you just saw them against all the nations a few months ago.
If anything I’d think Argentina but then you’d have even worse warm up matches
If France would the lions release all their players to the French clubs to make sure the games are competitive (lol)
I think this should just be adjusted. Fiji should have been playing the lions in Adelaide and Maybe Japan in Aus somewhere
They will outsource the depth and competition next go around.
Introduce a fourth nation would also piss off SA and NZ who would then get less tours

I can see the Lions adding France to their schedule. To laugh it off because it only across the channel is a mistake, as I think a very good percentage of supporters with a choice of sitting on plane for 26-30 hours for Aus or NZ are going to pick a shorter journey. Think they would get huge support, and many could do it in long weekend trips etc. I not sure if we down this way are going to have less frequent tours etc, but I think a good percentage of their supporters who can't afford long trips etc would find it attractive.
I don't know how serious it all is anyway, as we all know Lions management are quite good at saying controversial stuff to get the tour more press space. And with them on revenue sharing deals etc, they would probably think they want press in Aus to get them in front of local people?

Anyways, I'm not sure what one muppet's view of what deal gets negotiated in 2029 has to do with 'Lions Tour 2025', there is a lot of water to go under the bridge between now and then including 'Lions Tour 2025' and hosting a Rugby World Cup. I'd assume a fair bit will have to do with those 2 events.

Back to 'Lions Tour 2025'....
