FFS! :rolleyes:
Another poor effort from Maitland there:rolleyes:
Good performance overall today. Zebo had a great game, bar one ball he should have caught. Maitland had a nightmare, and played himself out of contention. Gatland will still go for Cuthbert on the wing, but Zebo shoul;d run him close. Davis played well today but won’t move BOD from 13. I’d like to see Tuilagi at 12 if Roberts is injured. We are fucked if Sexton gets injured as well, Farrell is miles behing him. Heaslip looks to have the number 8 spot sewn up, Quinnell doing his best on Sky in bigging up Faletau. Philips had a bad game and Youngs should start the first test. I’d have his brother over Hibbard as well. SOB is going to lose out on the number 6 jersey to Croft too.
Admins, can you merge this shit with the other shit and not have the board clustered please.
Disappointing to see in a time when Nelson Mandela is on deaths door, South Africa choose to play in an all white kit. Shameful from the Boks.
Scotland tackling like demons here
They should just delete this thread
Another try for Scotland :o
Scotland pulling out all the tricks to hold out the racists and South Africa are SEETHING here.
Penalty try for the kaaaaaaners.

I don’t think I’ve seen a more blatant case of a referee jumping in with a team in a long long time, good ol Roman.
My prediction of Zebo on the wing for the test is not far off got him at 40/1 to start the first test This is the thread to be on the real Irish Lions thread.
I like Anto.
Of course you did
:rolleyes:
[SIZE=14px][FONT=Segoe UI]Not sure which of the Official Lions threads to be posting this in, so I’ve just posted it in both! Gerry Thornley getting very animated by this issue of the name. [/FONT][/SIZE]

[SIZE=14px][FONT=Segoe UI]One of the more irritating occurrences of Lions tours is the occasional references to them as British Lions rather than the British & Irish Lions. Clive Woodward was a repeat offender in 2005. If in doubt, why not simply the Lions. [/FONT][/SIZE]
[SIZE=14px][FONT=Segoe UI]The Waratahs have, in fairness, been the most open and helpful of any outfit to date on this tour, granting access to coaches and players at the end of Wednesday’s open session. However, the press release accompanying their team announcement yesterday rather took the biscuit as it wrote of “NSW looking to record their first win over Great Britain (sic) since their 18-14 victory in 1959”.[/FONT][/SIZE]
[SIZE=14px][FONT=Segoe UI]To err once could be forgiven, but later in the release it read “The rivalry between NSW and Great Britain dates back 125 years to the teams 'first meeting at the Sydney Cricket Ground on 2 June 188 when NSW lost 2-18.”[/FONT][/SIZE]
[SIZE=14px][FONT=Segoe UI]Oh well.[/FONT][/SIZE]
I think it’s great that Thornley is put out by this.
Thornley is a scruffy jumped up League of Ireland journalist with an earring. He shouldn’t be allowed near a rugby club. Its a disgrace that the Irish Times got this scruff to replace the incomparable Edmund Van Esbeck.
That’s a great bet Anto. With the demise of The Dunph and The Tipping King there is a vacancy on here for a champion tipster, I’m surprised you haven’t stepped up to the plate yet.
Thanks Sandymount gentleman, as usual Mac has to stick his hook nose in. I was saying Zebo had a great chance last Saturday week to Rocko and Larry. If North is injured he is in, go on the Zeeeeeebbbbbbbooooooo
