Talking of trolling
Definite irony there. These Australian and Welsh fellas masquerading as England spokesmen do love to talk from the sidelines.

Isn't playing "ive got a lovely bunch of coconuts", because you know you're crap at sing, irony?
No, I don't think that is irony. If they'd put on accidentally "I'd like to teach the world to sing", that would be somewhat ironic and funny, if they were actually crap at singing.
Darn, so the walrus is right.
A. he hasn't met me
B. I don't get irony anywayBut it is ironic that in 1983 we didn't have many ......
No, won't go there -
“That is not for me to decide, I’m easy. It’s where I’ve played the majority of my rugby, but I’ve played a lot at 12 as well. It depends what other people see me as, it’s not about what I think."
Guess who?

This was nowhere near the worst article he wrote this week. You should see the tripe he wrote about how the Lions are always so hard done by with refereeing.
Thanks for the warning, I'll give it a miss.

Really enjoyed this from the Telegraph staff
Ignore the headline

Interesting article. Some lingering bitterness there, but "Donners'" parts were great, he sounds like he had a ball!
-
@mariner4life yeah the comments around BOD were bitter alright...did think the comment about a lady in a shop refusing to sell laces odd...but I guess there is no reason to make it up.
Certainly a lot of division in the squad, no surprise they struggled on the park.

Well that's great for you, you fucking assholes. Have fun!

Now that it's here, I'm only realising how inhuman this tour is for the tourists. A number of them played league finals on Saturday, joined up with the Lions squad on Sunday, flew out yesterday, and arrived..when? Have they even arrived yet? Then there's a game on Saturday and another game on Tuesday! et, etc. They'll need every one of the 40 odd players plus more in reserve.
Tipping Point: Toll taken by Lions tours is surely not sustainable
Test series against the All Blacks will be great sport but players cannot sustain the pressure
-
@wowrp1 depends what time yesterday they left if they have arrived yet...
First up game likely to be physical, but unlikely to test the team greatly, so a good one to blow out the cobwebs.
-
and game 1 won't involve players who played club finals.
I don't think the itinerary is too big a deal actually.
It just an extra 2 weeks of warm up games, and a 41 man squad to handle that. They'll be fine.
Remember in 05 the midweek team brought up a ton v Manawatu. Tour games can't be v the provinces anymore.
