    Just turned this on: 40-5?! Are the BaaBaas even bothered?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,463 ✭✭✭Kiwi_knock


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


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,249 ✭✭✭Stev_o


    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

    Loudest cheer of the day goes for the streaker.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 37,978 ✭✭✭✭irishbucsfan


    Delighted for Daly. Smashing player.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,463 ✭✭✭Kiwi_knock


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

    Fotuali'i should start at 9.

    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


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 37,978 ✭✭✭✭irishbucsfan


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


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 37,978 ✭✭✭✭irishbucsfan

    I think if Big Joe starts it would be at 13


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,442 ✭✭✭its_phil


    Top class finish at the game today.



  • Registered Users Posts: 1,805 ✭✭✭Swan Curry


    I don't see why the crowd are booing,he was more exciting than anything the Barbarians did.

    They cheered?
    They didn't boo till the security caught him no?

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

    I would have preferred to have Fotuali'li at 9 but Yachvilli ain't bad!

    What odds on there being two future Lions in the backline in Daly and Payne?

    They booed the security guards going off their feet and entering from the side.

    :pac::pac::pac:

    Tindall is an injury doubt so Varty has been added as cover. Very surprised he was not in the original match day squad, what was the point of naming him in the squad if he was not going to feature in the match in Hong Kong.

    Two outside centers will be interesting... very interested to see how Casey gets on at 12.

    I'd say he'll do well, his style of game is quite suited to 12 I always thought, i.e. taking the ball into contact and looking for the offload in the tackle, but Munster just weren't able to adapt to him (and vice versa).

    He should get decent service from Evans and if Daly can get into the right support positions, then it might work out well.

    Good team, would have liked to see Kahn & Harinordoquy start but it's still a very formidable team.
