    Kiss not smart enough to stack his bench with forwards, so the Lions class disparity is becoming more obvious with more minutes.

    6-2 bench split isn't it?

    Needs to be 8-0. The forwards are absent because the gulf in class is killing them.

        One-sided match. Have to wonder if the BIL's would benefit more from some tougher games.

        Not sure they'll ever get them.

        Would the NZ sides AB-less do any better?

        It's not 2005 any more

        I'd be more worried about Wallabies lack of lead in vs this machine.

                I think the Lions have played with good intensity and it’s all part of getting some reps in and having film to show some things. Reds have had moments, but the Lions class has been really evident.

                          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.

                            It's clear how well the Lions players defend the second man play. Their shape knows who has to target that seam to prevent it progressing.

                            Reds structure looks an entire RWC cycle behind.

                              I think that's where the calls for Lions to tour France instead of Aus come from

                                    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.

                                          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.
