    So, SOB and Murray having a good game so far?

    Murray has been very quick to the breakdown and looks sharp.

    SOB is everywhere, turnovers, 2 lineout catches, carrying well in the loose. As you'd expect really.

    Yeah, Farrell and Tuilagi going okay too. Kearney looking for work.

    Lineout a disaster so far, Gray not going great at all

    Lineout is poor.

    I think we kind of take POC's lineout work for granted.

    TF is putting in a good display so far.

    if he finishes as strongly as he's started he'll be putting Heaslip's position under serious pressure.

    Irish lads linking well but just not clicking perfectly. Zebo busy again but being shackled well.

    SOB and Zebo just can't connect. That's two passes in a row between them that have led to turnovers

    Gray has been awful so far. Ditto Hibbard.

    Can't see Heaslip being dropped regardless of how TF goes today, to be honest. JH was one of the stand outs the other day in a massive test match. TF has started brilliantly here but it's against a weakened Melbourne Rebels that have won 4 games from 15 this season.

    Only hope for any changes for the weekend will be to people who went badly in the first test.

    SOB conceded a soft penalty. That's going to be a big black mark against him considering the focus on the penalty count the other day.

    What was the problem with the SOB turnover? There was no ruck, how can he be on the wrong side?

    Barnes doesn't seem to be a fan of Murray at all.

    He did say he's another great scrum half the Lions have.
