      @Jet Yeah, I’ve just never ‘got’ the Lions. Could never cheer an English rugby player. That simple.

        Remember when Gatland had all his boys conveniently "holidaying" in Australia around the time of the 2013 tour.

        Cory Hill et al.

        Do me a favour.

          @Jet Wasn’t that 2017? And there was some weird justification for it from Gats but basically it was filling empty jerseys so the entire team could rest?

              I wouldn’t read too much into this. Lions will be a different team once Finn Russell and Blair Kinghorn are in the starting line up.

              They’ll still beat Australia 3-0

                Yeah while it was still a good team they put out against Argentina, there's probably only a few guys in there that will start in the first Test - there might only be one survivor in the backline.

                              That was a really fun watch.

                              Excellent ball movement.

                              The fact it was played in daylight in nice temperatures is not a coincidence.

                              By Doleman standards he was pretty good - only he would miss that knock on though haha.

                                  It was funny seeing wonderboy Pollock miss a crucial tackle and then spill the ball at the end.

                                      Team with limited time together versus team with experience together. The result isn't a shock.

                                      I doubt whether the Lions will play like that down here. It'll be forward -oriented phase play ala Ireland & England

                                          @ARHS said in 2025 British & Irish Lions tour to Australia:

                                          I thought James Doleman was below his best. Seemed to miss a bit and always had an advantage back for Lions when they infringed.

                                          He tried to hand the game to the Lion's but failed.
