Western Force v British & Irish Lions - 5/6/13

[Big Ewis]

Lovely try there. We've seen a few reasons why Tuilagi shouldn't play 12, he lined BOD up for a huge hit had BOD not got out of the way!

always thought he should just be a winger...

anyways, impressive scrum by the Force, I'm surprised.
Pretty weak defense though...

No preconceived views on this then? Surely too early to make that comment?

Who's kicking anyway?

 

[Tony Manx]

Halfpenny of course!

Definitely does - BOD was completely static when calling for the ball. Force read it and went for the tackle.

Actually not! I kind of wanted it to work because I think it's O'Driscoll's best shot at starting the test but Sexton seems restricted in what he can do with the backs in the first 18 minutes.

Who's kicking anyway?

The hammer has been unleashed!

 

[Feicarsinn]

Oh bloody hell Murray you twat.

 

[donmcdazzle]

Any thoughts on the biting allegation?

 

[TRF_Olyy]

SOB's playing well - I don't think he'll start the test (certainly not at 7 anyway) but I think he'll bench at least.

Was that what Healy and the fat bald guy (#9?) were on about?
Looks like Healy was saying he had his arm across his face in a maul and no bite, but who knows.

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

Best that's why you weren't picked in the first place!

 

[Tony Manx]

Bad throw in from Best leads to long kick that Halfpenny fails to deal with........penalty to Force on Lions 22!

Mark of things to come.......sound like good news for Hibbard and Hogg?

Sheehan the half is a super ****ly player, always has been. Probably mashed his arm into the guys mouth then claimed a bite.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Cole stopped a 3 man forward pod by himself then

Bit early to write Halfpenny off isn't it?

 

[UlsterRugby2012]

Best **** sake!

 

[Tony Manx]

Bit early to write Halfpenny off isn't it?

Only raising the possibility as opposed to saying that his chance has gone.....think he was slow to get there though and Hogg would not have been so definite question to be answered by him and by Best through the rest of the game?

 

[TRF_Olyy]

At least both Hookers can't throw!

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

What's wrong with you Best?

 

[Big Ewis]

That Australian scrum !!....

 

[Tony Manx]

Thats two Rory....but who is counting!!

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

Murray is far too slow at the back of the ruck.
