    13 for the Force is wincing every time he's involved in contact. That shoulder to the solar plexus must've been a good one.

      Matt Proctor? Yeah he didn’t look good in the first half.

        Score accurately reflects the game. Force dominated.

            Nice hands for some of those trys. Didn't really have to get out of second gear to put 50 on them.

              Well the first half was fun, good on the Force for giving it a bit of a crack, but they were never going to have enough quality to stay with the Lions. Lions will be pretty happy with that hit out I think, perfect start to the tour for them (ignoring the Argentina match).

              I love that there is rugby every Wednesday and Saturday for the foreseeable future. Hope some of the other Aus sides can give them more of a run for their money.

                Oh and Pollock was a joy to watch, amazing talent, the biggest thing that stood out to me was his decision making. Top notch for a 20 year old! He has a huge future in the game.

                  The Force thrashed. They looked okay in the first half, but the Lions had too much quality and too many options and made it count.

                  More than decent win for them.

                    If he stays fit and healthy, he'll be one of the games biggest stars for the next 15 years or so. Huge talent.

                          McCarthy, Pollock, Williams and Sheehan were the pick of the Lions. Russell, Daly and Lowe went okay too.

                            Whilst not traditional, I do like the names of the players on the back of the jerseys. Will definitely help for the Aussie (and non 6Ns) viewing public.

                                I didn’t watch as am o/s.

                                But I see the Force had more possession and territory, had more carries, had to make less tackles and also missed less tackles, conceded less penalties, but got whacked by 47 points.

                                Yikes

                                    Was about to say this, he has talent but let’s see what he’s got when he comes up against tougher opposition.

                                    We’ll have to wait until next season’s 6N then, because even if he starts all three tests and scores 6 tries in each test all we’ll hear is how shit Australia are

                                        Yeah. Did some good stuff.

                                        May become problematic.

                                        Have decided not to like him.

                                          Russell pulled the strings beautifully in this match. Definite front runner for the 10 jersey in the tests.
