    haha, well that's one view i suppose. The irony being that's how most of the non die hard rugby fans (and plenty of those) around the world see the All Blacks PR machine.

    The Lions is special, like it or not, I love it, absolutely love it.

      I'd be fairly thin-skinned too if I'd spent my entire life lumped with such a comically stupid surname.

      I wouldn't exclude the first name, there's a lovely companion for the surname if you use the common nickname version.

        I dont hold out much hope, but I would love it, absolutely love it, if this sky sports wet dream, banter laden, hyperbole abusive, corporate bukkake party of a sporting entity, gets fucking humped red raw by the Aussies sans lube.

        They disgust me. I hate everything they stand for in their current guise.

          Joe Schmidt says nice things about the Lions midfield. And their assistant coach, Richard Wigglesworth, goes on the defensive even though Joe clearly wasn't having a dig. Round one to Joe Schmidt IMHO.

          https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/rugby-union/articles/c0k7jk4zxjlo

          strikes me that Schmidt knew exactly what he was doing with the southern hemisphere dig, and i think Wigglesworth's reply was perfectly reasonable.

          Either way, love to see it

          @Dodge Mind games aren't particularly Joe Schmidt's style. He's not like Eddie Jones or Rassie Erasmus or Steve Hansen or even Warren Gatland or SCW. He seems as happy and comfortable in the opposition's dressing room as in his own team's.

            Normally I cheer for anyone playing Australia to be honest.... I'm not wild about Andy Farrell's Lions, but I'm not sure I like either the idea of our over-excitable cobbers winning a significant Rugby series.

                      Argies into it from the start, but you just get the feeling they'll fade after ten minutes.

                      Genge showing everything he's got flying into pointless/late tackles.

                            Why the fuck can’t they just call that no try in seconds?

                            Doesn’t need to go to review

                              Exactly. Doleman could not have had a better view.

                                Superb scramble from the lions, unbelievable they shut that down. Pumas bottled it a bit though.

                                  Picking a blow out. Lions by 40. Portugal has got them fit.

                                          Has Mitchell beefed up? He no longer has chopsticks for legs.
