    If the Lions camp talk about it at all this week, I think you might find that this will unify and galvanize them more than anything else. "It's us against the world boys" and all that sort of crap. Wonderful motivation for a team that probably needs to lift it's physicality.

    Serious? AWJ had to have stitches just above the eye for that. I think he's lucky but in away I'm pleased he will be there for the last two tests - best players playing and all that. Just need POC to be fit to keep things even. Can they fix a broken arm too?

    B Youngs wasn't on long enough to be awful, however, Phillips was. Mowen had a field day. The combination of Murray and Sexton is a good point though. The only hooker with a 100% line out record is T Youngs. He was also solid in the scrum, tackled well and carried well. He wouldn't have stood a...

    I thought Croft was okay and the numbers back that up but I think there needs to be a change in the back row and SOB must start in the next test. We need someone to put pressure on Genia and SOB will do that and more. Croft to the bench. I would also use the Rebels game to let Murray and Youngs...

    Because Best and Hibbard are in such blinding form??? Did you miss the Brumbies game?

    Lions Tour 2013

    Well I'm obviously in a minority on Croft. He's just surprised me with the way he has played on the tour thus far. We will have to wait and see. I'm wrong more times than even Stuart Barnes. What's more of a concern to me is that we only have one Hooker who has thrown well on tour. Last...

    The New Scrum Laws

    Any thoughts on which players will be the winners and losers under the new laws?

    Well bloody hell, Barnes has gone a bit over the top. I can't say I agree with him as I didn't even think he was England's best six. But I also don't get all this negativity against him. He's a long way from the worst player in the squad. To say he went missing against the tahs is way off. It...

    I trust you aren't having a lend? The UK is a sovereign state (United Kindom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland) and is made up of four countries; England, Wales, Scotland and NI.

    Is it the Lions camp moaning or the press trying to sell newspapers. There was a belief that in 09 the Lions were caught cold because the pace & intensity of the Tests was greater than the other matches. Maybe it would be better to have tougher opposition but its too late to complain now...

    I believe Khe Sanh is very popular with Dingo - "So I looked across the country from end to end I tried to find a fly-half to settle in, whom my mixed up plans could mend I had anyone do the ol'gig, a-flyin' Beale when I could But the nightlife nearly drove him round the bend And I travelled...

    If it helps, I did think of you when Zebo got the call. My deepest sympathies.

    Battle of the Blood Red: Lions v Queensland Reds 8th June 2013

    Based on last night?? There's a lot of fresh air between Sexton and O'Ferrell but he's nowhere near as bad as people are making out. So what was it about last nights game that proved he would be such a disaster at Test rugby? Was it his kicking, his passing, his defence, his running? Did he...

    Press the red button - "Rocket rod is like a wee Bambi on speed" ; "Quade Could sidestep three men in a telephone box"; Radike is as useful as a lighthouse in a desert". Alas, the British commentary team no longer has Bill McLaren. You might have to put up with some Owen Ferrell love instead.
