Lions v Wallabies

[TerryO]

Bugger!

Bloody POMS!

[sheerluck]

I wondered who'd get in first!

Another really good game. The score line didn't really reflect how close the game was in terms of possession and territory stats. But this is me not caring, and happy to see a 25 point beating.

Just goes to show that a team is bigger than one man, BOD being left out worked.

And it seems the North vs Folau battle was won by North.

Good to see Wales, I meant the Lions get up

I think the Lions outclassed the wallabies just about everywhere. Some real flair tonight, just unfortunate it wasn't coming from the team in gold. Was very enjoyable to watch some classy play for a change. Good bye robbie deans.

The worst thing about the Lions winning will be listening to all the Poms that have been here for 20+ years bragging about it

Great game, no one expected that result!!
Just because the Lions won by a record score does not vindicate gatlands decision to drop O Driscoll. They might have hit the half century if he played!

.......They might have hit the half century if he played!

They also might have donned grass skirts and danced the hula back and forth on the halfway line at half time, if only Gatland had selected more Hawaiians.

Very true, less likely though!

You mean Tongans don't you? ...

Well 8 years for me but yeah your right we will be

After all I still mention to my Aussie misses about 2003 final all the time :-)

Well done Lions, farewell Mr Deans, you did your best, but any coach that chooses a 33 year old, just back from serious knee injury, over a young up & comer, has to accept the consequences. Genia should never have had to catch that first kickoff, Kane Douglas , it was your call. Now the hunt must be on for a number 10, and 12, that can defend in their respective channels. O'Conner scored a good try, but that doesn't disguise the fact he is not a no. 10. Top marks to the Lions forwards, they gave us a lesson in scrum play, especially in manipulating known scrum pendant Romain Poite. I think there are 8 tests to go this year, against NZ, S.A. & Argentina. Jake White, as soon as the Super final is over, must take over the coaching role. He knows how to bring on young players, and he has developed a genuine no. 10, at the Brumbies. Ewans' turn will come, but his mission, if he accepts it, is to make the Rebels a genuine title contender. Just my opinion.

Congratulations , Lions, you deserved that win. Now all your supporters have to do is find another chant. It's as annoying as " Aussie, Aussie, Aussie.....", you know the rest. Bob

The best team won by far.Could someone please tell me why the Wallabies continually break basic rules ie hold the ball in rucks ,shoulder charge,etc.How many points have they lost doing this.Also miss catching the ball, bad passing also kick the ball to the other team who mostly score from it.They can play well but stupid mistakes let them down Robbie's time is up. I would like to see one of those know everything commentators take on the job.Cheers Will
