[QUOTE="valley commando, post: 778484, member: 72217"] What bust ups between the Welsh / And Bodgate as you call it was a tough decision that had to be made and you may remember Bod took it well realising his omission was for the greater good of the team, a decision a weaker would not have had the balls to make and deep down Bod must have realised that ultimately it was the correct decision, Johny Fox was the better player on form leading up to that 3rd and deciding test, 41 -16 the most points ever in a Lions test against a tier 1 Nation. Both inside and outside of Wales you get idiots having a pop at Gatland, but in the real world facts and figures prove his detractors wrong on every front, he is without date the best coach Wales have ever had and is one of the 3 greatest ever Lions coaches, together with Geech and the incomparable Carwyn James. [COLOR="silver"][SIZE=1]- - - Updated - - -[/SIZE][/COLOR] I could be wrong but seem to remember reports of the midweek sides not feeling as much a part of the squad and more akin to the reserve side. Gatland mixed and matched his midweek side giving everyone the feeling of being part of the whole thing. [/QUOTE]
