Wallabies v Lions II
-
Disappointing selections in my view by Schmidt. How does Bell not start? Gordon was pathetic in that first test but somehow keeps his spot. Potter was hopeless on the left wing and a bigger body like Pietch would surely have been a better bet after the way he performed for the Force in that first game.
Lowe lucky to be there for the Lions.

@Canes4life Pietsch is bigger?

Outside of Farrell and Ryan’s Mother I don’t think anyone had James Ryan on their dance card
Especially after being carded on Tuesday
Feel for Cummings
Obviously want Genge as a ‘finisher’ when the game opens up
Lowe very lucky
Delighted for Jac Morgan but still feel he’s a better starter than finisher
I would have had Pollock on the bench for that role
If the Aussie changes play to their best standard you can easily see them take the victory
But we questioned Farrell last week and but for poor handling and decision making it would have been a whitewash
So hopefully he knows what he’s doing this week

First time I’ve been slightly irritated by the Irish leanings. How is Porter starting over Genge? How is kelleher still on the bench after his shocking lineout last week. If Kinghorn is fit he should start at 15, Lowe is ridiculously lucky. And James Ryan is a thug and doesn’t deserve to be on the bench.
Concede how wrong I was about Beirne and Curry last week but still think it’s a risk that the back row is slow

@Canes4life agree on Bell.
Gordon did ok given our forwards were getting trounced in the first half and the Lions were allowed to rush as they pleased most of the game.
His place is now contingent on our forwards being better and the ref understanding the offside laws.

If you want a laugh, rewind back to when Kurtley Beale is on the mic. He predicts Drew Mitchell will pull a hammy, about half a minute later Drew gets in space and pulls his hammy. Bloody funny. He then proceeds to accept a beer from a fan and necks it before limping off the park.

Do you know approximately when? Don't want to go through the whole game haha.
Matt Giteau scored a classic chip and chase try too.

Kurtley comes on the mic just after the 11 min mark on the game clock.

Kinda freaky experience.
