If only we had stuck with a 10, 12 , 13 unit and built some sort cohesion, we have mixed and matched all season

None of our hookers are anymore than functional at test level, great to see a load that can do the job, but there aren't any real standouts that as say a pest poacher or a bowling ball that adds that little bit extra. They all chuck the ball in well and scrummage etc but that something extra -...

They have much more heritage at wining in shitty, wet, slippery weather

So Mahe Vailanu is leaving? WTF? I thought he could be anything

I think there will be little new blood for the Lions in the pigs wherever possible

I wouldn't bet on it, in-between injuries he has been pretty good, a run of functional games and I think he will be picked in the squad

Amatosero is getting better, he is a baby and needs to be nurtured

It depends on his physical and mental doesn't it? The elderly can fall off a cliff quite quickly

Some reasonable marketing

Squidge's analysis of the squad

Fergus Lee-Warner exists

He will be in the squad, but you would assume the preferred bench will be Lock and 6/8 cover with Mcreight being budgeted for 80 minutes Depending on the bench split being 5/3

Our Captain will be picked, as will Mcreight Tizzano & Gleeson will be in the battle for the bench, so it will depend who gets budgeted for 80 minutes

Tahs play with a compressed defence, he has been defending 1 vs 3 too much

He was the biggest revelation of the spring tour, we suddenly had threats at 12 & 13
