Better he kicks than tries to pass. Is there anyone else who can play 9 please?

Price, LCD and VDM have to be nailed on test starters, I would have Smith on the bench

Yep. Will be a travesty if he's not starting next weekend.

Yup, Stomps forwards are fanning out away from the ruck too soon.

Bit harsh on Hogg!

If Gatland is even remotely picking on tour form then Price should be starting.

Enjoying watching Smith

My only complaint about VDM is sometimes he point blank refuses to pass and runs into someone instead. Would be one of the first players I'd have in the test side on his tour displays so far though.

Some great attacking work from the big lads, LCD having a cracking game again, price playing v well, scrum has been a mess... It's been alright

I think the Lions just need to hold the scrum. After the 1st penalty I don't think the Lions have been the ones at fault.

Someone tell the bok commentary team that you can start running up the moment it's clear that the ball is going over the 15 in the lineout. If that's the call, it's clear to you rather early!

For a penalty? Maybe if it's secured after the 25m half break sure, if not, then it's not really an advantage.

Dew is really bad in CT in July. Why don’t they go back to the old days and start the Test at 3pm???

Try Fagerson. Lucky because Beirne is a greedy fudge who nearly lost another one driving along passed the ruck.

The try doesn't hide how poor Fagerson has been since he came on, pretty sure he has played himself out of contention.

Careful the Scots will be in on you for that. I agree, though. No way he's ahead of Furlong or Sinckler based on tour performance.

I’d probably agree with that- but I don’t think he has been poor tonight, that’s a strange one
