Lions tight 5 ok. Everyone else being outplayed
Scrum is OK but tight 5 doing naff all else.
Actually, the new approach we were showing in the 6n, showed what Youngs could do. Let him be that fast instinctive player. Then the shit passes aren't so bad because they're at least rushed, and he's dangerous. Youngs gets slower when he's told to think about it a bit, but tell him to go fast, especially with Ford there, and he can go at speed.

Faf goes in for a shoulder charge and in the process headbutts Navidi. That's a red according to the frame work.
World Rugby announced their 6 Pillars today one of which was about their commitment to combatting head injuries. What's the point in that sort of press release if the refs don't back it up on the pitch? Too many incidents recently where what had been a red is being talked down to a yellow for no apparent reason leaving the citing commissioners to pick up the slack.

Didn't touch his head apparently....
No chance the Lions win this unless SA go down to 12 or 13 for the whole game. It's like watching a bunch of dopey sheep against a battalion of well rested hippos.

If I'd have been the boks there I'd have kicked to touch, taken the lineout and maul, just try and eat up a minute or two before kicking it out.

Well at least they should hopefully have shelved the repeat quick taps by the test series. Silver linings and all that.
Completely brain dead.
That didn't even click for me, I was just getting annoyed by the poor support work in so many of the pick and goes. But yeah, 13 vs 15, one of them being the scrum half, take the scrum and let Faletau carry it, ready for the pop.

I like Dweba. Big test coming up with 13 men.
It’s pretty poor from the Lions. In saying that it is the first test they have had. The disappointing bit is that no one seems to have stepped up to calm it all and control things.
The captain certainly isn’t going to
