    Tbf this is an exhibition match, a red would have wrecked the game.

    Farrell holding Brits at ruck, loosens hold and actually pats Brits on the back. Keeps a hold of Brits jersey with one hand (there's no struggle in all of this mind) and next thing Brits boxes him with his forearm unprovoked.

    Farrell needs to calm the bap. What use will he be in a test match if he loses the plot so easily?

    Blindside dig and forearm on Farrell. Nothing like your 10 going straight back at a Hooker.

    Low odds on Aussie trying to rile up Farrell, I'd say.

    Red would be bad for lions too, they need a test.

    Hah people the way some people have been talking you'd think Roberts wasn't powerful...

    EDIT: And people saying Maitland doesn't have out and out pace.

    Considering what Britz did I thought he kept remarkably calm tbh

    Barnes keeps talking as if Farrell's playing against Oz.

    ah, you've to admire the English arrogance.

    Some gas from Maitland, burns Yachvili on the kick through

    If someone hits him a dig like that in a test match the worst it will be would be is 14 v 14.

    Backline looking really comfortable together so far. Good to see.

    Typically cohesive Gatland side which really surprised me given how little they've played together. Pretty happy.

    Interesting O'Connell is carrying more ball than Richie Gray

    Amazing how Farrall has actually got a reputation for being a cool consistent kicker.

    Barnes is one of Sexton's biggest supporters, he's convinced Sexton is nailed on :confused:

    Great kick by Daly, dissapointed though that BaaBaas went for the kick, not in their spirit.

    Really ? They look fairly devoid of ideas other then crash ball. The difference of having someone like BOD at 13 is night and day.

    Your favourite English player gets the Baa Baa's first points.
