Love the Lions. Great first half, back and forth. Lions playing some nice stuff at times and will only get better.
Looking a bit shaky defensively though
England with a small token gesture of the other nations. No thanks.
British (and Irish) Lions! Yuk ..it sounds like something cobbled together from the Benelux
Never understood the concept of the ‘lions’ it’s an artificial, made up team to cater for the desperate and needy isn’t it?
I got more time for Soccer Aids, which at least helps good causes.

Williams made a big impact when he came on, must have put himself forward for a Test start.Quote:

Australia is probably the least appealing of the 3 tours but it's still a Lions tour which will build nicely to the tests.Quote:

Scotland had a total of 5 initial squad members over the 2013 and 2017 tours.
I bet there's only been one series when the Test side has been made up of nearly 60% Welshmen in 100 years.Quote:

I'm a big rugby fan, love the domestic and international game, but I must admit I don't feel much for the Lions and never have. I appreciate the epic intensity of the tours, and I do enjoy watching them but the overriding thing for me is that four countries coming together to beat one isn't that much of a victory.
I am far more supportive of Wales in the RWC than the Lions in that sense.
