Cuthbert did get blocked.

Warburton.... oh dear.

by Cari Sat 08 Jun 2013, 11:03 am

Schitt! Sammo left in the dirt too.

7-3 at 17:17

by **RDW** Sat 08 Jun 2013, 11:03 am

What more could Hogg have done there??

by JmD Sat 08 Jun 2013, 11:04 am

Cuthbert has been poor but there was some blatant blocking to set that up

by mckay1402 Sat 08 Jun 2013, 11:04 am

Cuthbert never stood a chance. totally obstructed

Great play by the reds 11...

by Cari Sat 08 Jun 2013, 11:04 am

Everyone's missing tackles! Crying or Very sad

I can win test - it is certainly one of the best things a prop can do to win a test

But Wallabies wont be as weak, so its not realistic. And with scrums they are pretty much 50/50 calls dependent on ref

by Cari Sat 08 Jun 2013, 11:05 am

Feck. Tommy just couldn't make that. Good work from Frisby.

by wales606 Sat 08 Jun 2013, 11:05 am

Someone needs to smash that no11 to teach him a lesson - where is Roberts when you need him

by t1000advancedprototype Sat 08 Jun 2013, 11:06 am

The tour has begun!

by Cari Sat 08 Jun 2013, 11:06 am

I keep losing the stream - that may be a good thing.

by nathan Sat 08 Jun 2013, 11:07 am

Argh, what a missed opportunity!

by wales606 Sat 08 Jun 2013, 11:07 am

North is on

Who is off

overcooked by JD2

by Guest Sat 08 Jun 2013, 11:07 am

I wouldn't strictly blame Warburton for the try. Pretty hard work chasing back, particularly a winger. Cuthbert is struggling though.

by Hookisms and Hyperbole Sat 08 Jun 2013, 11:07 am

This is a proper match for the Lions. Lydiate and Warburton seriously struggling out there to assert themselves. Davies and Tuiliagi not playing too well together so far.

by **Pal Joey** Sat 08 Jun 2013, 11:07 am

Come on 606... 'smash' Really?

What a disgusting comment to make!

by t1000advancedprototype Sat 08 Jun 2013, 11:07 am

Gas on North!

by Guest Sat 08 Jun 2013, 11:07 am

Tuilagi off

by JmD Sat 08 Jun 2013, 11:08 am

If Davies picks that up up instead of kicking it's a try

by Knackeredknees Sat 08 Jun 2013, 11:08 am

What happened to Manu?

by GLove39 Sat 08 Jun 2013, 11:08 am

North on for Tuiliagi

by Cari Sat 08 Jun 2013, 11:08 am

Who is North on for? I misseed what happened after they said he was on!

by wales606 Sat 08 Jun 2013, 11:08 am

Is Bowe off?

That's a blow

by GunsGerms Sat 08 Jun 2013, 11:08 am

Cuthbert should be subbed off. Is he injured? Way off the pace.

Give it a rest please, keep it on the rugby.

by wales606 Sat 08 Jun 2013, 11:08 am

Bowe at 13 then?

by t1000advancedprototype Sat 08 Jun 2013, 11:08 am

This North at 13 lark is almost as exciting as Phillips at 12!

Next week we see North at number 8.

by Hookisms and Hyperbole Sat 08 Jun 2013, 11:09 am

Cuthbert needs to up his game. You dont get many chances and this performance is playing himself out of the Test team

Think Danny is doing his job thus far. Making his tackles etc.

by **George Carlin** Sat 08 Jun 2013, 11:09 am

Just an awesome piece of broken field running.

by Cari Sat 08 Jun 2013, 11:09 am

Good kick Faz!

7-6 at 22:36.

Tuilagi. North to centre

What is wrong for wanting someone to put the winger who keeps stepping all you player onto the floor?

Big tackles are a big part of rugby, and games have turned on them in the past

Or is it as bad as insulting Cruden for missing kicks?

by Cari Sat 08 Jun 2013, 11:11 am

Thanks Guns.

That's my thoughts really. Cuthbert was the only one who maybe could've stopped him, but he wasn't strictly helped by the nudge and being isolated.

Surely Bowe to 13?

by madmaccas Sat 08 Jun 2013, 11:12 am

Warburton's looking very rusty. We need him playing well.

No need to be so aggressive.

by Hookisms and Hyperbole Sat 08 Jun 2013, 11:12 am

The Lions backrow having a pretty poor match so far. They really need to get into match ASAP.

by Cari Sat 08 Jun 2013, 11:13 am

We need Tommy at 14 in the tests. That's where he excels.

by **Pal Joey** Sat 08 Jun 2013, 11:14 am

Nice turnover off Vunipola

by Icu Sat 08 Jun 2013, 11:14 am

Morahan brushed off the Lions 7 too easily for his try. Poor tackle attempt from the Lions fullback too

by Hookisms and Hyperbole Sat 08 Jun 2013, 11:14 am

Linebreaker, go take a lie out in a dark room mate. You're having a shocker today, otherwise known as 'doing a Farrell'.

by wales606 Sat 08 Jun 2013, 11:14 am

Nice break from Farrell, pity there was no support

by nathan Sat 08 Jun 2013, 11:15 am

Surely he was resting on his belly?

by **Pal Joey** Sat 08 Jun 2013, 11:15 am

Take it easy Hyperbole.

by Cari Sat 08 Jun 2013, 11:15 am

Pass the ball, mun!!!!

by Hookisms and Hyperbole Sat 08 Jun 2013, 11:15 am

Excellent turnover from Warburton. But then the Lions are turned over again. Some guys are playing themselves out here.
