think every one agrees with the last part of your post, even the most die hard of Welsh fans, I know I shouldn't but into this thread as its one that's debating the Aussie candidates, But for you who think the lions have picked too many Welsh players and will suffer for it, couldn't be more wrong, Over the last ten years we have got better, To the point now where we are disappointed if we lose and look for ways to put things right. Ten even five years ago this would have been unheard of we would have come away using the old adage, We are on a learning curve, that hasn't been said for some time now, players are critical of them selves and say soCalling that Welsh team average isn't being negative, it's being true to reality. They were nowhere near as good as they were in the RWC and won the 6 Nations this year in what was effectivey a two-horse race. To top it off they played themselves out of the Australian series. Two of the games were lost by Wales and one was 'won' by Australia. Even just replace Priestland with literally anyone else with two legs and two arms and the Welsh win the series 2-1.
They were the 'best' Welsh side to tour because for a long while up until the past 7-8 years Wales were pretty horrible.
I personally am looking forward to this lions clash. But for those of you who think you will win 3-0 don't watch.
