First topic message reminder :

Thought i'd create this thread as there wasn't one already.

My prediction: One of two things will happen, Australia will hammer us or we'll win on penalties.

Poor disapline

On the plus side, the Lions forwards look to have started well, and Phillips will be up for it now

Great start from Lions and Australia taking riskier option due to 7 point advantage. Good aggression but need to score points from it.

Smith collides with Hibbard, Hibbard straight up but Smith stays down. Head on head, looked nasty

Yeah credit where credit is due, he wouldn't have made that turnover had Lydiate not made such a good tackle.

Lydiate and SOB combo that's where we will win this game. Lydiate nails not just the man but keeps him nailed, drives the player and the 8 back. Pen to the Lions

We almost always get penalized after we've scored in this series. It's happened twice so far, and we're a bit lucky they Aussies only went for the posts once.

In another world, Shane Warne would look like Hibbard. He's having a masterclass influence on this game early. Lions scrum looks very strong.
