Potential side for Crusaders:

1.Vunipola 2.George 3.Furlong 4.AWJ 5.Kruis 6.O'Mahony 7.O'Brien 8.Faletau
9.Murray 10.Farrell 11.North 12.Te'o 13.Davies 14.Williams 15.Hogg

16.Best 17.McGrath 18.Sinckler/Cole 19.Itoje/Lawes 20.Warburton 21.Webb 22.Sexton 23.Daly

If Gatland is looking to give the remaining guys who haven't started a chance on Saturday then that's a potential side. Sexton and Te'o have both started a game already so potential for seeing Sexton at 10 and Farrell at 12 too.

All the back three players other than North and Williams will have started a game after tomorrow so who makes up the back three with those two will be interesting. The 23 shirt is up for grabs too with all centres but JD2 having had a start after tomorrow.

It will be interesting to see whether Gats sticks with getting everyone a start of re-jigs his flankers to get Warburton another start. His skipper's in need of match fitness so it could be prioritised. He could shift O'Mahony to 8, bench Faletau and all his back row will still have had a start.

Saders will be the biggest challenge other than the tests so you'd guess the coaches will look for a strong side.

So every one else who played in the first game is a "TEST" starter? Including AWJ. Oh well picard Doh .

Interesting non sequitur.

You don't think that the players who have had longer to train in the conditions with their new colleagues before having to impress the coach have an advantage? Care to elaborate?

Has the look of an 80% test side, and Warburton will start as captain.

But Gatland will have had an idea before they came out to tour who he was going to pick. He's given everyone a chance and he has enough time to reward tour form.

He probably picked his first 3 teams before they went out near enough. With 41 different players needing 45 starting shirts, he doesnt have that much flexibility. But then after that he has plenty of flexibility. He can pick his Maori side after the Crusaders game when he's had a good look at everyone, then pick his second midweek side from the residual.

Everyone he's impressed with gets one more look before he picks his test side after the Maori game, again filling players in the midweek team after.

The Maori game is 1 week before the test, reckon he will pick what is essentially his test side - probables- for that game, with possibles on the bench.

100% agree robbo (with the first bit anyway). Gatland had already pencilled in his teams based on his research over months. So the players who play in games 1&2 rather than 2&3 are pre-selected by him and therefore are disadvantaged in their attempts to impress because:
1. they have less time to gel and acclimatise
2. Gatland has already preconceived notions of his Test team so someone will have to be stellar to overcome those
3. the players who had decent games against the weakest first side will not have the same kudos as those playing the Crusaders
4. Gatland knows that a flash in the pan performance against a SR side should only colour his selection in a limited capacity otherwise most of his plans would be shredded

The 'warm up games' are not to find his Test selection but rather be a platform to give his preselected combinations practice. He may tweak one or two positions but to think it would be any more than that is naive.

I think it was probably more to do with not picking players who has just played for their clubs than trying to give others a duff hand.

Agreed. A good few of us were able to pick the entire first team before it was announced based on who went into Lions camp first.

It will therefore be interesting to see who hasn't played until the Crusaders game that wasn't involved in finals.
Whatever the reason - it's a disadvantage.

I'm listening on TalkSport if anyone needs to settle for radio commentary. Think they have the exclusive right of radio broadcast in the UK.

Score for the Blues, bad midfield defence drew Nowell in and Ioane had too much pace on the outside and goes in.

Poor defense all round from the Lions - from Daly and 1/2p at the cross kick and Haskell/Nowell on that big pass.

Got to give credit as well to the Blues. It's rare that the ball gets to the wing like that usually.

How do you figure that? Haskell went in for the tackle and exposed Nowell who had to come in and as such was out of position. Not sure how Nowell was in the wrong there, more Haskell.

Payne playing excellently leading the defensive and attacking lines.

Two try chances for Lions/Payne not easy but we have to make them - then dumb offside at the lineout from midfield.

So that's the game plan now, get the pen, kick to touch and work the maul.

Almost 20 mins in and sick of the Sky commentary though!

Lions blew that. They all seemed to pass too early without committing anybody.

How do you figure that? Haskell went in for the tackle and exposed Nowell who had to come in and as such was out of position. Not sure how Nowell was in the wrong there, more Haskell.

Payne playing excellently leading the defensive and attacking lines.

Pretty similar to Wales v England I thought.

Plus as Greenwood said, Nowell had turned in.
