    Off the sports pitch the Aussies are great but they are the team I most like to see get a few slaps and beaten(result-wise) on it:eek:

    In relation to sports, off the pitch I find them insufferable. I don't know of another nation that takes losing so badly and is so ungracious. I know that's quite the generalisation but, having spent time there and having a number of nephews and in laws there, I do find they take losing extremely badly in all sports and are hyper critical of poor performances to the point of vilification.

    Yeah, lot of "machismo" there - or overcompensating:eek:

    I do find the majority are grand within a pint/15 mins of the result though.

    But, yes "insufferable" between the whistles alright. :mad: which is fine by me.

    Apart from the tradition, what is the purpose of the lions?

    Any of the individual test nations could send a team down to Australia and beat them.

    Surely putting the best players in one team it is just making it easier.

    The Lions has lost all its appeal to me.

    Is this the 2nd string side or are they mixing things up for a couple of games before deciding on the final 1st team line up?

    Was this not what we were expecting for the Tests? To allow the outhalves to get on with their jobs?

    Yeah going well so far. Jonny had a lovely crossfield kick, Jamie good link play for the Bowe break, BOD picking and going. Irish players standing out in the early stages. Tuilagi going well to.

    Would have expected them to stand out, more than 50% of the team are Irish!:D

    Gatlandball is designed around scrum halves like Murray. One of the strengths of this gameplan is its clarity of purpose.

    Listening on radio, assume Jonny took the line kick off that penalty?

    Australia will have to be asked a lot of questions if this turns into a rout. Early days I know, but no sign of anything being put up by FOR.

    Disgrace that Force aren't putting their first team out for the first (and probably ever after this) game with the Lions. Their next S15 match is a dead rubber

    Sexton stand out performer so far, the gulf in class with him and Farrell is massive.
