[Best Before]

Also over the moon Hartley never made the team and O'Mahony is there despite very limited 6 nations time.

Happy enough with that, I taught Ryan might make the squad and I would have loved to see Carberry in there as a wildcard instead of Payne

That was always going to be the case. "Better the Devil you know and all that". He's not gone over board, just enough to stop people throwing the "Bias card" at him.

With you there - the last straw for me was dropping O'Driscoll. Pure ego in my opinion.

I honestly don't think anyone wanted the Gig. Schmidt had committed to staying on as Ireland coach until the next wordcup. You have to basically take a gap year to do this job, and Gatland was the best option they had available to them. With the way the Newzealand team are playing it's hard to see any team beating them on their own patch. But here's hoping.

Lions to beat New Zealand

[Best Before]

The lions beaten by the blues. Great winning try by the blues with just a few mins left.

It's going to be a long tour

Worst Lions ever.

You mean the coach ?
Gatlands tactics are tailor made for NZ rugby
