Musts for the Lions Series: Front row that can stay up Locks/Backrow that win 95%+ of their own lineouts 7 who wins penalties and the ball Centres and wingers who make strong tackles Good goal kicker Unfortunately with the demise of Palmer and Kepu's inconsistency, I think we won't get that...

Suddenly, all quotes are sarcastic :P

You could put Lilo at GK, but it would just be a timebomb as a debutant.

I'd prefer to keep the current dynamic over grabbing Beale anyway

When sarcasm font is invented, the internet will be infinitely easier to interpret.

I got the files right here, watched them again over the weekend (Brumbies on bye and all) and he had the backline working in a way that appeared VERY planned. The tries you saw were either set up by Barnes or miracle breaks by someone with a number lower than 10. I agree that he adds to the...

I gotta disagree with you there - he was a rock for the Wallabies against Wales last year, organising the backline very well. A lot of that aimless kicked happened when Beale was at 10 with Mike Harris at fullback. You saw his worth when he came on in the France game - the backline started...

I'd put him up there, only real competition lies with Lilo and Harris

Added benefit of Lealiifano or Horne at 12 - the tackles will stick and the 10-12 channel won't be open due to players out of position.

I'm honestly all for the pick your plan, then your team approach. If the plan is to go for tries above all else and being able to attack from anywhere, then Cooper is the choice 10. If our plan is to suffocate the opposition and force penalties from them, then Barnes is the choice 10. If it's...

The more that I think about it, the more sense it makes - Betham-Crawford-Folau back three for 2014. Changes to cover injuries alone.

I don't know of an Australian team outside the Rebels that wants JOC (James O'Connor).

Remember the two Suncorp games over the last two years - deer in headlights.

Are any of their grandparents from New Zealand? If so yes, otherwise......... Have they been a resident for 36 months? If so, yes. Otherwise, no.

Damnit!

Typical that I'd read it as Peter Saili. How long is Cory Jane going to be out?

Ali Williams was okay at the start of the season, but has fallen over lately. I can't see him starting but a bench spot is on the cards.
