One-sided match. Have to wonder if the BIL's would benefit more from some tougher games.
It's not 2005 any more
Yeah, but tougher games would be better all round though. Hate to see Lions tours become a series of exhibition matches tacked onto a 3 Test series.
I think that's where the calls for Lions to tour France instead of Aus come from
Haha yeah cheers Morgs.
I'm in Sydney on Saturday but the chances of me paying $400 to watch the Lions sleep walk to a 50 point win is less than zero

Reds lineout has been quietly more efficient than the Lions.
Rescinded. Gone to shit. Every part of it.
It’s all about the test matches and the Brumbies game.
The Lions put on a couple of cricket scores vs some of the Saffa teams on the last two tours.

Hilarious that no one will watch the Brumbies game
@mariner4life I'm starting at 2pm that day as it's a mate's birthday. I'm certain very few of us will be in a state to remember much, if anything, of the game.

How is that a deliberate knock on
Doleman logic
mate I do that bullshit "accidental in the tackle" every week at touch.
I wasn't impressed by Fin Smith at 10 when he came on. Doubt he'll start, nor will Bundee Aki on that performance.
Daly at fullback staking a claim.
hope Daly recovers as the full back / wing cover behind him outside the squad looks pretty thin to say the least.

I can't watch today and am listening to TalkSport, which Ben Kay is doing his best to turn into a listenable version but the commentator is appalling, no idea where the ball is on the pitch, who's got it, what's happening, he thinks he's a summariser on TMS.
Therefore any fuller descriptions of incidents would be appreciated
Are you sure it wasn't Miles Harrison?
Seen some highlights. The Reds were fast out of the blocks, but the Lions were too powerful, too strong and had far more options than the Queenslanders. It was a bit of a rout in the end. Itoje and Morgan were outstanding. The Lions are starting to purr.

The way the Lions playing they got to have Russell at 10 with Marcus Smith as back up. By gees they playing some attractive rugby to watch. I didn't really see them running up 50 on the Reds, but looked to desrve it.

well hello Lauren Jenkins
Lauren ‘The Seagull’ Jenkins
Easy on the eyes, hard on the ears
They had to take her out of the commentators box, too much screeching
Knows her stuff though fair play

She’s approximately a million times hotter than any NZ chicks who host Rugby shows
