Bollocks to the football for now. Today is day 1 of a sporting summer of putting the Aussies in their place.

I cannot wait for this match to kick off.

I am actually loving this summer of sport and this is the highlight so far, really think Lions have a good chance. Still got CT final tomorrow, two more lions tests, TdF (going to Nice to watch it!) and then ASHES. Excited much?

Interestingly, England will take on Wales in the World Junior Championship tomorrow in France, having beaten New Zealand (who have won four of the last five) in their semi final.

It's on Sky tomorrow at 17.15 and worth watching as we clearly have some decent youngsters coming through.

I'm with you. I would love to win the lions test series,then the Ashes. I just love beating the Aussies at anything even tiddlywinks would do for me. Hate losing to them though.
Believe me they are still hurting after our superb performance in the olympics last years.
Come in Lions.

That would take a very brave man.

If we dominate up front we win. If the Aussies hold their own in the front 8 then we might struggle. Constant pressure on Genia and I think we win by 8-12.
Can't wait..... This is the pinnacle in sport IMO.

12 years ago I was in Brisbane for this game. One of the best sporting days of my life.
Pre match atmosphere in the bars was fantastic. O'Driscoll scored a wonder try.
The next two tests were a nightmare.
Be interesting to see how this game is refereed. Aussies will be offside most of the game.

Rugby is generally entirely pointless. However, the Lions tours are a fantastic spectacle.
