[QUOTE="Vieux Talonneur, post: 1050557, member: 73144"] That’s the real shame of this series, although they’ll be better for that hit out. And mad. If ever the dice were loaded for a Lions win it was last Saturday. And yet they only won by 5 points with the Boks having a couple of tries ruled out (rightly, but on another day things might have gone their way) while we looked totally blunt in attack. I supported a more adventurous selection for that first game but it didn’t really pay off. The pack have earned the right to go again. Maybe swap Owens / LCD and it’s a toss up between Watson and Curry. Behind, Price didn’t really bring what was hoped. Will Biggar be fit? Would we be better with the extra solidity of Williams at FB? McVan Der Merwe is big, strong and unsubtle, maybe Adams would ask more questions and it’s highly unlikely Kolbe will be so quiet again. And as for centre, there’s no point having Daly there unless you’re going to play a running game. Gatland has some big calls to make. [/QUOTE]
