    Selection questions should haunt Australia, why not select Tupou for the 23 in tests 1&2? Why wasn't Uru involved?
    Farrell made some odd selections too, Aki, Freeman and Lowe were pretty poor throughout.
    Tuipolutu if fit is a couple of levels above Aki these days.
    Biggest question for me though is why do Australia wear orange instead of gold??

          The non selection of Tom Hooper in test 2 should be added to that. Crazy.

              Is Gleeson a better bench option than Hooper? Not for me.

                A good point. I guess I was thinking more about starting players. Gleeson is a good bench option for when the game breaks up a little

                    I'm not sure Tom Hooper would have been as effective last week - his game suits a grinding wet weather style. Last week was far more open

                          Has not acknowledged the opposition once. Thanked RA for hosting while giggling at his team mates, but never even said the word "Wallabies".

                          Sheehan did.

                              Didn’t see the game as was standing in a passport queue in Porto for most of it. Selections killed us, but fair play to the wobs, love how much they cared

                                    But like the Irish team, good sides who can match them physically have worked them out and nullify them

                                    It’s Schmidt’s homework that Farrell is copying after all

                                          Well got up this morning, and pleased with result. Although I wasn't overly worried who won series, was pleased it wasn't a sweep, as I never really thought personally it was a 'great' Lions team. I tried to watch game, but after getting home form a bloody good shield game in New Plymouth, it just felt flat, and when the stop for lightning happened , I headed for bed, So good on Wallabies, and congrats to Lions for series win.
