It's Rob Evans of the Scarlets, if anyone's interested and that bloke from the Western Mail is to be trusted.

A great idea for 9 in the morning!

6AM for me. Ouch. If it was NZ and 3AM I could just do the old 'stay up all night' thing.
I don't much care for getting up at 6 to crack open a few and then have the rest of the day ahead. But I can't let the side down. Only every four years anyways...

Should be some craic reading posts so during games so ha

Aren't the kickoffs at 11am UK time?
Or have I really messed up time conversions?

Think your right. Usually Super 15 games there are 10:35/11.05 kick off

You're right but I'm sure coverage will be starting early and part of it's what the pundits say.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Excellent!
A couple of the games I'm in at work at 2pm, so that'll be interesting...

I thought there'd be more chat in this thread given how close we are!

Oh god, what have you done?!?

No way am I getting up that early just to see Wales versus Australia! I jest, I wouldn't miss the Welsh leinster and Leicester lions tour for the world.

Because the reigning consecutive Six Nations champions, reigning consecutive Heineken Cup, and multi-Prem finalists are full of awful, undeserved players.

Still can't believe Will Harries wasn't selected. Typical Gatland ignoring the Dragons.

How many times you beat Australia in the last four years?
-8?
Grand!



Chris Ashton for Lions captain!

By transitive property we thrashed New Zealand though, thanks!

I still can't get my head around how Matt Stevenson has been picked ahead of Ryan Grant. However, at least Ashton or Armatage aren't going.

I have my tickets sorted for the three tests however and I'll also be in Hong Kong for the game against the BaBas. Looking forward to the tour.

How much is the Lions tour setting you back, then?

From the prices I've got for two tickets to one test and a the Rebels game it's a lot.
