If Curry and Chessum keep any of Morgan, VDF, or Pollock out of the starting XV then Farrell Sr needs to give himself an uppercut
I think you'll see different back rows across the three tests. I think Chessum is the only 6 to pick if you want a lineout jumper, he's played well when he's had a chance so far. VDF wouldn't get near my team at the moment, Pollock is probably too green to take a risk on IMO. Curry is a beast and I still think is the best out and out 6 on tour.

Jones is playing much better than Aki, but Aki was nailed on first test starter before the squad was even named.
Thats not necessarily the wrong decision or way to go about it, but Jones is certainly making them think long and hard.
Aki is competing with Tuipulotu for 12.
Jones should walk in at 13
-
I think Tuipulotu/Jones have played better in the last couple of games than Aki/Ringrose but I also don't think the Irish guys are playing poorly, and I don't think the decisions should be made based entirely on the warm-up matches, given the nature of those fixtures.

Attacking lineout for the Brumbies.
-
2nd penalty in as many minutes against the Lions.
-
Try time Brumbies.

Ol Bernie can’t even crack a smile for the try. Old school.

Scrappy start for the BIL

New combos again I guess. Gotta build into it.

Breakdown turnover created by the Brumbies.
Rush defence is troubling the BiL

A couple of shooters putting doubt in the mind of the passers
