when does the final 6 get picked?

I like it too but i can not see Palmer starting if he was not in the initial 25 pick so swap him for Slipper. Gill/Hooper - I do not have a preference either way as I think they are both bloody good, however given that turnovers is one of the areas that we will have an advantage in and that...

Samo captain??? what is he going to to do - smile at the ref after he gives the lions a penalty? :confused:

Well said BDA ...... MMM is one of the few Finegans that we have left....I think it should be a straight swap with Macalman - not sure what the rules are with releasing uninjured players from the squad though. If MMM gets in I hope that he is on the pine for the 1st test and then steps up to 4...

What does predilection mean? Sorry sir I am just an ignorant uneducated convict

I don't necessarily disagree with your comments but I do think that pocock is a better in tight and defensively than both of them ...no doubt hooper is better at running and gill is very good at pilfering.....the future for all three is bright .... But coming into the lions series I wish pocock...

Well said!:)

Yes I agree they both offer much more together....but you can only play one openside at the same time right? :) Lining them all up I think your forgetting how good pocock is really is and how he almost single handedlynwon us the 1/4 final against the boks in 2011. I guess that probably...

Yes and it is the same guy that headed up the 05 lions with 300 plus in the touring party to make sure that he could play a second and third string side in the mid week games :)

I'm looking forward to this match despite a slightly weakened team...oh and I hope there is some blues :)

I'm just making " no" point :)

Can't disagree there brave heart

Correct me if I am wrong.... But the 71 reds is the only Aussie provincial side to have beaten the lions? Sorry I'm a queenslander and I can't help myself :)

Love this post...gold!!!

Hey grumpy....who are we to tell Robby? As a passionate Wallaby follower for 40 years and having seen some of his selections over the past 6 years, and about to watch a Lions series that only comes every 12 years, I would not call it hysteria at all; I would call it being entitled to a friggin...

Kimlin can cover both but goes missing at times

I was just watching highlights of the 01 games with Kefu, Giffen, Finegan etc ...kind of scary how light we are on talented hardmen at the moment with those in the squad to date as backups ..... I guess higgers has his scans today ..... crap!

could not agree more

Why is it no good? Because I have just had a new flatscreen set up downstairs near the bbq with setanta all connected.... and I had encouraged the better half to go out with the girls this Wednesday night so I could watch the big fella make his comeback - that is why its no good. :p

deans has invited white to training this tuesday, ffs......beale got invited too, they both should have been in the squad for different reasons but this whole squad selection is a load of bull. 25 get invites, 3 get dropped, 3 come in, a couple of extras get special training invitations and we...
