So you're not having a go, but feel the squad should reflect all 4 nations, but none of the Scottish players have held their hands up? (All your words, not mine). Confusing isn't even the word!
Been on holiday for just over a week....I did miss your inane ramblings data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7
We were pretty close with the starting lineup then boys. I think we should be the coach party in 4 years time. Save you a hell of a lot of money Tom data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7
Clive Woodward agrees with our choice as well. Who needs pundits?

I suppose its no suprise that Gats has thrown a curve ball in the front row with AC. This might to be to confuse the Aussie coach into picking a different tactic at the scrum. But all said and done Vinapola coming on as a replacment is not a bad thing either.
Anyhooo I still want that job in 2017 data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7 Bring your cameras gibbsy
nowt inane about it .If I was a Scottish rugby fan I would feel ****** off at the lack of Scottish players but accept that none really put their hand up.Personally i would prefer a better balance but if that cannot be then so be it
Just under 12 hours to go! Driving down to South Wales first thing, onto my mate's house to watch it with some of his friends/family. Followed by barbecue (under gazebo no doubt) and all day drinking.
One way or another im going to enjoy tomorrow and suffer fir it on Sunday morning.
Bring on those tinnie guzzling, shrimp grilling boys. Bring 'em to the slaughter! Erm, Up and Under, Poola!
Hoping that all nations under the Lions banner are left proud tomorrow.
I have to say the lions were lucky today
Australia could have won it
2 kicks at the end both missed
Lucky lucky lucky!
Wow. I was only able to listen to this on the radio, my flaming back decided to go into spasm last night so a visit to my local was out and I don't have Sky. Lucky, lucky Lions. One scrum that could have won the game but Heaslip loses the ball. One scrum that the referee gave to the Wallabies so that they could have won the game. What drama.
Listening to the commentary I feel that the ref was certainly more sympathtic to the home team. Was that a yellow card offence at the end of the first half?
Anyway well done lads, but you need to up your game for the second test and work on your discipline. One for LGS, the Taffia scored all our points.
A lucky win but a good one. Now we can have a good look at the Aussies. I thought we were poor on the right wings for defence and the scrum was just to high. Apart from having the lottery of the last kick I thought it was a good team effort. AWJ and OCon had a great game, BOD and JD looked good together. As for the ref both teams have got to work with the guy so we need to read the game as it goes, so lots of work to be done there.
