[QUOTE="McTallshort, post: 580321, member: 53362"] OK now have I finally come from round the sofa....... The game was very simple today the forwards matched each other with scrums going either way and the lineouts a bit messy but nither pack got the upperhand. The big difference was in the backs, the Aussies looked like a world class backline the Lions didnt, as much as I love Ben Youngs he is not in the same class as Genia and wanted to kick the TV when he was messing about with the scrum putting the ball in little tw^t! The centres were poor, BOD throw a terrible intercpt pass, Davis made no ground and both allowed the Aussies cross the gain line to often. Sexton was....well indifferent kicking most of the ball he had away because he had no big ball carriers inside him. North had his big tough moment but was quite otherwise. Bowe made a few errors but was the better of the 2. Halfpenny well yes he can kick but does he offer the counter attack that Beale does? not a chance. Quick note about Mako, thought he showed great character out there sticking with it and improving but my god did we miss Corbs tonight. [/QUOTE]
