    Laulala is doing everything he can to get the baabaas going .

    Think he is built for this type of game.

    Next score is important. If Baa Baas score early it will make it interesting

    Can't see it tbh. A lot of the Baa Baas are in exhibition/holiday mode while the English lads are looking to stake claims in the team

    I'd say he has a good chance of starting against the Lions with Kahn on the bench.

    Pretty funny that England have scored Barbarian style tries while the Baa Baas have just scored an English style try

    England are spoiled for choice in the backrow. Robshaw while such a likeable guy may find his captaincy going cause I don't think that he would be starting ahead of some of these guys.

    I see Matthew Rees was taken off around 2pm, the same time that it was announced Hartley won't be going on the Lions.

    Interesting !!

    Baabaas only had one other real opportunity :eek: They're giving the England wings oceans of space and paying the price. Has improved since Yachvilli came on. Laulala playing well

    Daly gets a deserved try, one of the only Barbarian players who has played well

    Gotta be Kahn at 9. Yachvilli is the most un Barbarians player out there!
    Varty ahead of Rocokoko too?!

    You can't not start the Hong Kong winger against the Lions in Hong Kong xD

    And Yeah i was tempted with Khan to start aswell but I think bring him on with 30 minutes to go, with his pace his threat will be even greater

    I'd start Yach myself. But both are good players.

    I'd hope Jared Payne would get a start somewhere, be it 15 or 13.
