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
@Canes4life oh yeah, they kicked 2 in that must win game, the second last of the season. The only 2 for the season.

Sounds like Duhan is playing himself out of a test place here
Mac Hansen will happily take his spot.

how that knock on was missed is beyond me
Doleman
Doesn't seem to know where the gate is
They're playing alright but they look really disorganised.
The Lions are actually clinically pulling them apart. This will get ugly without the Lions having to work that hard
@ACT-Crusader said in Reds v British Lions:
Reds certainly creating opportunities but letting themselves down
Said ti Mrs Boo, if Reds get some ball they're in this. But not getting enough ball.

Reds lineout has been quietly more efficient than the Lions.
It's nice to watch

Combination of a couple of big units and a hooker that doesn’t muck around on the calls.
Wasn't that out off the wing, rather than from the kick? Or is the flag considered out? No sound here...

If the winger was out when he touched it that may be deemed dead in goal?

Comms said something similar ...... but the TMO said dead before anyone touched it
The good news for the wallabies is, they appear to be running the Irish "wrap to make space" back line.
So if you can jam them at centre you can stop them.
The problem is the inexperience of the wallabies 13

In their pattern, once they go left they have created an acre of space for their centre to use along with one forward trailing. Good to watch.

Five on two and the Lions stuff it up.
who stuffed up?
Needless cutout pass that was also off target by Huw.Jones at 13

VDM should've run through the gap, but passed to 13 who threw a terrible pass to a tight forward instead of his 8.
