[QUOTE="TW27BA, post: 1052230, member: 72319"] Glad to see most of the changes but Gatland didn't go far enough. Why Russell is not starting with his Scotland scrum half I can't fathom. Biggar hasn't brought much for the backline as yet. An ideal time to give LRZ a run in place of Vdm? Lawes looked really tired last Sat and I'd have had him on the bench and started Beirne. Neither Faletau or Conan have really shone either, but Simmonds is too lightweight alongside Curry and Lawes. Henderson and Beirne must be crestfallen to not be involved. Apart from his leadership I can't see what AWJ brings that either Hendo or Beirne cannot do? Jamie George should feel a little hard done by too. Certainly the equal of Owens. I can't help feeling SA are on a roll now and unless the Lions get a decent lead, we will be beaten quite easily. I hope I'm wrong. [/QUOTE]
