2025 British & Irish Lions tour to Australia

Taniela Tupou released by Wallabies to be available for the Waratahs fixture. An opportunity to find some form instead of sitting out the Fiji warm up?

Someone in the media needs to put disrespect on Laumape’s name a few days out from that match just to get him fired up.

Maybe when he lived in Brisbane.
But he's tasted Melbourne and now Sydney, so...

I think professionalism is making the Lions better and better.
The old disadvantage for the home nations of the Lions having to bring players together is being eroded by the fact they are full time professionals.They mix at club level. They are used to moving between systems, and now thie talent levels are coming to the fore.

@mariner4life which is why I agree with Qu7ade's chatgpt column in The Australian that players in the Wallaby squad should be released to play for their State.
That knowledge and experience would be invaluable come the actual Tests - a double benefit.
