    Now that the HC is done and dusted, its time to look forward to the lions tour! First test next saturday against the Royal XV, with the Super 14 final on the same day. Here's hoping for an exhausting match for the bulls and a good performance by the Lions to kick start the tour!

    You hope the Bulls will be knackered so the Lions could have a good start??

    Let's hope the Lions don't **** themselves after the first match as it will be new territory for a lot of the young players.

    James Hook's been called up to replace Halfpenny, good call - delighted its not Armitage, mite shut Barnes and Morris up!

    Out of interest who do you think will start at 10 for South Africa? Steyn's been playing well but does he have any international experience?

    If Pienaar is fit it will be him. Otherwise Morney Steyn might get a shot because he is calm and collected. He might even add Earl Rose as backup altough he isn't world class he had a very good currie cup. Worst case scenario he might have a wild card in there.

    Forgot Pienaar was injured actually.

    Considering his form it will presumebly be Steyn.

    We should all pray its Rose.

    Cant see beyond Pienaar if he is 100%. But Morne Steyn... what a game he had on saturday, kicked himself into the test squad at the very least.
