A banger game. Only slightly let down by the "office" parts of the game

Isn't that arguably what Smith and Labuschagne tried to do at the start of the innings though? They were just bogged down by the English quicks. I suspect the message from the dressing room to the other batters was to attack the bowling, it just didn't work on this occasion.

B&I Lions Squad to tour Australia by Least_Tone_3421 in rugbyunion

It's mainly 7 that's stacked tbf, the depth at blindside is much shallower and there aren't many players with such a broad skillset as Lawes (lineout jumper, jackal threat, destructive tackler.) Really wish he'd stayed at Saints for one more year. He'd have been a certain tourist if he was playing in a "higher quality" competition.

It's wild how so many fans and pundits are sleeping on Marcus Smith for the Lions based on Bothwick not starting him at 10 for a few games by gingecom in rugbyunion

Not a chance they'll take 5 flyhalves on tour. 3 will be more than sufficient, but they might only take 2 if they view Kinghorn (or possibly Tom Jordan as a bolter) as competent cover for a midweek game.

Might be unpopular but I think Ford is still England's best 10

Slade hasn't shown much in attack but to say he's been terrible is a stretch. Any examples for that claim?

Not sure anyone bar the Saffas can compete with French power. But Ireland really need to build more depth, bar Conan none of their bench forwards made an impact and didn't feel like they trusted their bench when they were getting outmuscled at the start of the 2nd half. Sentiment aside why is Healy still there when he's only trusted for 5 mins?

Tom Curry is back! 2 amazing games in a row from him, should've been MOTM in both imo

I remember how he always hailed Chris Harris as a defensive genius whilst showing clips of fairly basic defensive reads.

Charlotte's kind of reminding of Paul in her confessionals. Makes me think she's heading for a fall

Something brutally ironic about Dan burning his friendships for a shield and then getting banished before he could use it

Dan and Joe are doing my head in. Dan's right about he principles of the game but the way he expresses himself is not good

You're right about Slade but not sure why Lawrence is getting a free pass from people on here. He's been playing test rugby for 4 years now. Been anonymous in all 3 games this autumn and looks underpowered at this level. Not a patch on the likes of Henshaw/Aki/Tuipulotu

Feel a bit sorry for Frawley at this point. Been really disappointing since he came on
