The Lions Tour

[whitelion]

Not long now for the decider for the British & Irish Lions tour 2017.

Honours even at 1-1 and today's game at Eden Park Auckland should be a classic.

Lions have an unchanged starting line-up:

Looks as if rain is forecast later.

Fasten your seat belts.

Scotty looks a bit wound up [emoji23][emoji23]

 

[Is it PotG?]

I am renowned for pathetically poor football score predictions, All Blacks by 12.

Is it just me or has the haka become a bit YMCA?

Not sure how the opposition don't piss themselves laughing tbh.

 

[Pavilionaire]

Anything could happen, although NZ will probably edge it.

Never seen what it was like in the 20s ?

Head says the All Blacks by a clear margin, heart says the Lions will sneak it.

 

[Iggle Piggle]

Imagine practice dancing at Rugby training?

I said Young man...

 

[Wellesley]

White players look ridiculous doing the haka, like contestants on The Generation Game.

 

[Pavilionaire]

There's he'll of a lot of red in that stadium, the All Blacks won't have faced opposition noise like this before.

 

[Official Old Man]

Just tried to listen online and ended up with Lions Live, Millwall FC. Took me a few minutes before I realised what I'd done.

Missed penalty and knock on when should have scored a try, NZ look sharp

 

[Hugo Rune]

NZ should be 10-0. If they stop making mistakes they'll smash the Lions to bits. Hopefully we can get a grip.

 

[Napier]

Bit of a let off there - both the missed penalty and the knock on.

Agreed, looking the sharper team by a distance so far

 

[Napier]

We really need to cut out the silly errors. Itoje is looking immense though.

 

[Iggle Piggle]

Farrell has been a disaster so far. Missed tackles, kicks straight out and THAT pass.
