    Former Lions halfback Mike Phillips says the tourists are favourites for Saturday's decider and insists the "wounded" All Blacks can be steamrolled.

    "But, for me, the Lions are the favourites. They have the momentum and belief - and these guys are 80 minutes from becoming legends."

    Crikey,

    how many momentum's and beliefs does it take to equal the aura and mystique? And how do they compare to a pact?

    I'm so lost in modern rugby

        Don't forget "history" and "fortress" when in Auckland.

            Interesting the Nh think this is the first time he has been under pressure, he is under pressure all the time ,
            Every year we have must win games , part of being an ab coach and the winning expectation that comes with it , last one was Dublin .

              Woodwards tweet shows how at least on Englishman doesn't understand NZ rugby and why we are who we are and perhaps they are who they are. As already said - the pressure is always on. Always.

                yep, Dublin last year, a couple of return matches with Aus after they beat us, 2015 RWC semi & final, pressure isnt new to these guys, well most of them anyway.

                    I'm drinking a bottle of wine and watching Pirates of the Caribbean with my boys, relaxed as fuck.

                    We'll win, and when we look objectively, it will be viewed as one of the best given the players available and the level of the opposition.

                      Am nervous as fuck ...

                      Crows conceded a goal just before the half time siren to put it within 3 ...

                      Pirates though ... excellent choice

                          For the first time in my life I have bet against the ABs as an emotional hedge. Sold the ABs points handicap @ +12.5. I feel dirty.

                                Oh shit, and now I've stumbled on Return of the King, where the tattered remnants of Middle Zealand defeat the hordes of white orcs on steroids; and beasts from both the bog and the pit.

                                        Judases north of the border too

                                        As cries of ‘Come on the All Blacks’ and ‘Greig Laidlaw should be starting’ come from north of the English border, the rest of us look on with a degree of incredulity.

                                        http://www.walesonline.co.uk/sport/rugby/rugby-news/disgruntled-scottish-rugby-fans-who-13296953

                                        Quite rightly the only starting Laidlaw will be doing is packing.

                                          All my doubts are now put to rest. I've remembered "logic".
                                          Ioane scored 2 tries on his first start against the Lions.
                                          Therefore Barrett & Laumape will also score 2 tries each.
                                          Sorted.
