What a great game and a great way to silence the "naysyers" the win was based on a power game and when played correctly is hard to live with for any team imo, yes its one dimensional at times but when

I like the way people of all nations have got behind the British and Irish lions on here. Some of the vitriol towards other nations players on other sites has to be seen to be believed. On this thread

Well a wins a win and thats about all. The ref aside (Dont like slagging refs off) the Lions looked very nervous and seemed to wait to see what the Wallibes did first before doing their own stuff. 3 i

The lad would be world class if he could pass a bit better, but your right GTE he's really impressed so far on this tour and should pair up with Brian O'Driscoll on Saturday.

I think that SOB apart there are no surprises there. A few that could be mentioned are Maitland over Hogg and the absence of Tips on the bench, but Hogg and Tips played this week so there could be nothing in it. What does worry me is who is going to cover fragile Sam as with the amount of knocks he has had this year i feel they may well target him?
