    If we don't make changes then Aus win. Just like last week we look spent after 30 minutes. Disgrace.

    O'Connor's almost impossible to stop when he steps like that.

    Only 9 points despite the dominance but Lions are in very good shape. Nice try by JOC. Should be a cracking second half.

    SOB, AWJ and Corbs the pick of the Lions

    Mike Phillips is proving that he's one of the most overrated rugby players on the planet. Again, am I shocked at his display? No, this is typical Phillips. He shouldn't have even toured

    Actually get insanely angry at this game.

    Player as good as Sexton being not much more than a total bit-part-player in a Lions series.

    Crazy

    He's being used differently to how he usually is for Leinster but he's still a huge part of the team. His tactical kicking is and has been superb. We
    know he can play a passing game but he is doing the role that best suits this team and it's paying off at the moment

    I always though Alexander was soft. Kepu is a far more powerful man



    MOTM so far Leigh Halfpenny and SOB

    Grrgh, Barnes saying it was two Irish men he stepped inside, what about all the Welsh men you old codger.

    Half time analysis is going to be painful.

    Its gonna be some craic defending late on without BOD! Aussies looking more threatening and we're looking one dimensional. ..

    If prior to that last attack Oz had gone for goal each time and scored, we'd be level.

    Sexton had to believe that if JOC stepped inside him one of the forwards would of got him, he had to mind the outside, unfortunately SOB got blocked by Tomane.

    There are 9 points in it, but Australia have turned down 5 kicks at goal.

    Yeah, I wouldn't normally say "I told you so" but Phillips just makes me angry. Always said he should never have toured, and certainly nowhere near the team.

    Hopefully Murray gets on at half-time.

    Poite refereeing, scrum dominance, 16 point lead. Just a couple of things that remind me of that game.

    Love to see Murray come on, much better kicker than Phillips and might speed the game up as well. Tuilagi should also come on for Davis..

    They likely wouldn't got all those penalties after restarts, not many of them were gimmes either, bar the last one which they ended up with a try from.

    I won't comment on the scrum because its self-evident that the Lions are well on top but superb first half from Faletau & SOB. Murray should come on.
