Yes, I did imply that....but I never said he was a rubbish goal kicker, which is the one thing you have highlighted he can do.
A rugby player has to do more than just kick goals though. Try watching a game some time, you might just learn something data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7
We had tickets for the BaaBaas and now for the Warratahs game. None others yet.
Met a guy from Cardiff at Hong Kong airport last night (as you do), and he reckoned there were loads of the "club" game tickets available on Gumtree here at only a little over face value. We'll see how we go.
To be honest, the only other one I'd really love to go to is the last test in Sydney - especially if the series is 1-1 by then! But they'll be premium prices no doubt.
Edit: Just met up with my brother in Sydney and he's arranged an evening of BBQ, beer, Rugby League and then the Lions game on TV.... Bring it on.
his defence is rock solid and his distribution is much improved what he lacks is pace and the ability to take players on and beat them.He'll never gain any extra pace but he will improve as an all round player who can play both F/H and 12 .He is only 21 after all. Coaches btw dont ted to select rubbish players especially not Lions coaches .Gatland must have seen something in Farrel that Biggar does not possess
I'm still waiting for you to explain to me why all you keep doing is mentioning him alongside Biggar....?
LGS - quick, he scored data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7eekdata:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7, tell me how great he is!!!!! data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7 data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7
Shh. Leigh Halfpenny. Kicked ALL his goals. I know, I know LGS. Only Welshman to get on the score sheet. But he did outscore the nearest player by 12 points.
Sexton to start the first test alongside Phillips. BOD and Roberts in the centre? Halfpenny fullback with Bowe and Cuthbert on the wing?
Do you know I used to like BTBob because he lives in Cardiff. Not so sure now, must be jealousy, the jammy, lucky b******.data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7
Leigh Halfpenny incredible today with the boot (to some, isn't that all you have to do to be a quality player?), and there's no-one better to put there at the moment. Is his record for not missing tackles still intact? Wasn't it like over 700 minutes at one time?....
Agreed on Sexton and Phillips (you can look no further with only one real 10 in the squad - hi LGS data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7).
Also agree on BOD and Roberts, although Manu looked solid today and didn't do anything wrong. I think Manu will start at least one of the 3 tests (maybe the 2nd one).
On the wing it'll be interesting, I actually disagree and think he'll go with Cuthbert & North for the wings). Obviously, Halfpenny at FB.
Cian Healy cited for biting a Western Force player :-(
Tour could be over with ankle ligament damage anyway.
Gutted for him.
Any ideas for a replacement, if one is needed?
