    Interesting to see SOB doing all the chat in the dressing room, didn't see him as much of a talker

    Was really impressed with his comments the other day about those not selected as Test starters needing to keep the standards up...
    It's funny how a given tour can be the making of a player, taking them on another step...a bit like Donncha Ryan at RWC2011. He came back from that with a fire in the belly and really kicked on.

    Maybe this Lions tour has brought the talker out of SOB.
    I expect a massive game from him today.
    He'll be looking to make a very big point.

    Noticed that myself, he seems very pumped up for this

    Last time he played he was almost too up for it initially, he went ploughing into people at full speed and forgetting about technique, which is often less effective. Hopefully he keeps a cool head today and doesn't try too hard

    Was that Tipuric that turned that over? Watching a poor feed but I genuinely thought that was Wade!

    Nothing to do with Trimble, can't make a full strength Irish team, not within an ass' roar of lions material

    Awful defense from Wade, probably the reason he wasn't on the tour in the first place

    And there's why Wade wasn't named originally. Cannot tackle his dinner. Hogg has put himself out of the 23 too with that last man defending decision to come in. Not what you can have a 15 do at all.

    No 14 is very lightweight.

    tbh, Kearney looked like he had no interest in making that tackle
