Jones is locked in at 13

Agree. Live question as to who he partners with in the midfield. Tuipoluto in the box seat but we know Farrell could default to Aki.

@ACT-Crusader It'll be Bundee.

Bundee has been better so far this tour cause Tuipulotu has looked rusty coming back from a long term injury but given how scratchy some of the combos have looked if he wanted to pick Jones at 13 he could be tempted to just play the Scottish 10-12-13 combo in the first test.

I expect he's going to either go with that or just pick the Irish combo, a mix and match seems more risky.

Terrible game all around.

Cool story, bro

Keep claiming those moral victories bud! You guys were bound to have one of those this season.

Lions who put their hand up: jones, Mitchell
Lions who put their hands down: Finn smith

Rest. Meh.

Tahs: huge heart.

Mitchell looks like the most important person in my firm's finance department but he's probably only middle management.

We fired him last year for getting drunk at the Xmas party and inviting the boss's mum back to the holiday inn.

Ireland's favourite English nepotist is claiming the Waratahs watered their pitch. They are claming they didn't.

I think one of the blokes at our club invited Mitchell's mum somewhere. Only a theory:

A diligent lions fan probably just puased all over it before the kickoff.

Has Farrell never been to Australia? They really don't know how to do grass over here. I think groundskeeping is a one week Cert IV.

The surface at the SFS is easily the worst part about it. Speaking to people in the industry, a lot of corners were cut to meet project deadlines. The issue now is that it's a year-round surface so starting again is going to be extremely difficult.

Irish and British don't have experience of wet pitches? Does it not rain over there?
