[QUOTE="SmokeyMonkey, post: 162719"] I really have no idea. 'Manager'? I dont even remember a 'manager' last time around! It'll help that he's been on a few Lions tours before, but the [b]coach[/b] is much much more important. Ian McGeechan sounds like a good choice for coach, anyone except Eddie O'Sullivan! The fixtures (which I assume are official): May 30: Highveld XV, Rustenburg Jun 3: Golden Lions, Johannesburg Jun 6: Free State Cheetahs, Bloemfontein Jun 10: Blue Bulls, Pretoria Jun 13: Western Province, Cape Town Jun 17: Coastal XV, Port Elizabeth Jun 20: First Test, Pretoria Jun 23: Junior Springboks, Cape Town Jun 27: Second Test, Durban Jul 4: Third Test, Johannesburg I still don't understand why they are playing vs Provinces, surely the Super14 teams are at a higher level! Anyway, by then I'll be 18 so maybe I have a chance of going to South Africa! I'll be looking forward to it anyway! :cheers: [/QUOTE]
