British Loins Tour to Australia 2013 - Official Thread

:smiley:

No Zebo!

And no James Downey either. Very surprising.

But like, Zebo is an international sensation?!

Any word yet on who made it and who didn’t?

Who the fuck dressed that Welsh hick?

Robshaw not selected. 9 Irish players named.

Warburton is captain.

Wales 14
Ireland 9
England 6
New Zealand 3
Scotland 2
South Africa 1
Samoa 1
Tonga 1

Can’t see the English being happy their whole back row was ignored.:slight_smile:

Do England not have 10 players picked…

Fuck.My.Life.

Twas the night before Lions selection, when all through the eve,
Only Gatland was sleeping, with some tricks up his sleeve
BOD, POC and Sam all sat in their chair,
With dreams of captaincy, flowing through their hair

Farrell weeped, and cried in his kitchen,
Hoping Wilkinson didnt take his position.
Beside his name, Robshaw hopes theres a tick,
Along with Madigan, Hogg and Tipuric

Wade could run faster than the plane,
Causing Gatty more of a selection pain
And then there’s Heaslip, consistency’s the word,
Folk saying he’s not going; don’t be absurd

Halfpenny’s kicked himself there,
While Youngs has proved better than Care
Tuilagi could bosh a rhino out of his way,
The same could be said for O’Brien on any day

Healy and Best will be partners in crime,
Unfortunate to say, its past ROG’s time
Jones and Coles will battle for three,
And Neil Jenkins will marshal the tee

Ryan and O’Mahony could also be in with a chance,
Only if they can pick a fight at first glance
Despite all the drama, the choices and speculation,
It’s without a doubt, we’ll silence the Aussie nation.

On the plus side for them, it’s a massive vote of confidence in English front row play by Gatty.

What’s your definition of England? Matt Stevens is South African. Dylan Hartley & [FONT=arial]Mako Vunipola are from New Zealand and [/FONT][FONT=arial]Manu Tuilagi is from Samoa.[/FONT]

Will Donnchas role now be a non playing one Sidney?

What a dumb cunt…

Of Dublin’s 3 reps, there are 2 Northsiders and 1 Southsider. There is also NO Cork representative while Louth and Carlow have 1 each.

We’re through the lookin glass here people.

If you pull on the white jersey with the red rose, you’re representing England, end of story. All this talk of nationalities is a bit tiresome. All that goes out the window when you’re selected to tour and play for the British Lions.

Sadly for Donners it was always destined to be. But not playing will give him much more time to concentrate fully on what is a very important role, a sort of a mixture between a clown and a Ryder Cup vice-captain. Think Charlie Chaplin mixed with Paul McGinley.

Manu Tuilagi and Mako Vunipola are as British as Margaret Thatcher.

And as far as the Loins are concerned, Limerick is as British as Finchley.
