Who's the Saffer coach that looks like a bad Andy Farrell lookalike?

His first touch knocks it down and forward and them he touches down.
Never a try. That’s an awful decision.

Lions have to play some rugby now. Which has not been their forte in this series.

Farrell must be good for a dirty cheap shot. Still 18 mins left.

Said all along if these are the tactics VdM is an odd pick.

Wyn Jones?

Mako has done alright, lots of tackles, lots of carries and made some metres unlike everyone else, and done okay in the scrum.

Jesus Christ, Ken Owens is wank.

And Gatland. The Lions best card was to play a high tempo game so he drops Price and picks Murray :shock:

Yeah. Unlike the first Test though he's actively made a case to be dropped

Nope. Early drive at the lineout before the guy landed. The ruck where he blew up was fine

Yep. It’s exactly what Breadman was describing.

Interesting subbing Mapimpi; he looked pretty good I thought. Would have taken Willie off.

He was describing driving into the lifter when the guy was in the air

Good case to replace all the Lions back 3 next week.

Lions need something different off the bench like a Smith or Russell. Trying plan A but Plan A harder doesn't work.

Indeed, but for me the change wasn't Faf that went off, but De Jager coming on, Bok ruck starting to fire and Lions bleeding penalties.
When the Boks get momentum the 9 always looks good.

Nope. Watson was in front of him, fumbled it backwards, then it hit a Saffer and bounced to Itoje
