The British Irish and Colonials Lions. :rofl::rofl::rofl:

Anyone watching?

I thought it was all a bit chaotic against Argentina, prople trying a bit too hard. Has to start looking more coordinated from now on.

Is RU getting any attention in Australia?

Very little it’s not that popular and most is behind a paywall

Yup. Wouldn’t miss a lions game. It’s a shame about the lack of interest down your way Pete. These tours are very special up in our neck of the woods. The stuff of legends.

What an enjoyable first half. Both sides full of endeavour.

Pollock and White. One player on each side that you might want to love or hate, or both, but cannot ignore.

Love pollock. Yellow card aside having a good game. But then again I am English. White? Does he think that facial hair is a good look?

A few years ago Daly looked utterly washed up in a dull English team. Today he just looks smart and classy.

Looks like a spent Force now.

Yup. A good win and some classy passing and running off the ball in free play. Solid start and agree with your comments re Daly. Farrell needs to get the restarts sorted out though.

..and the front row.

As the commentators identified, there wasn’t much competition for the ball at the breakdown today which, I think, encouraged a lot of ‘sealing off’ to my eyes (or flopping). Neither side targeted this facet of the game. I agree re Daly, in that as England’s 15 he, at times, looked lost in terms of positioning, concentration and an open gate when it came to tackling.

Whereas the match against Argentina was a mess in the centre channels, today was much better, with an edge being created to run around.
