All Blacks v BI Lions Test #3

Judases north of the border too
As cries of ‘Come on the All Blacks’ and ‘Greig Laidlaw should be starting’ come from north of the English border, the rest of us look on with a degree of incredulity.
Scottish fans who've turned on the Lions are an embarrassment
A section of rugby fans north of the English border have been in uproar over the lack of Scots appearing in the Test series
Quite rightly the only starting Laidlaw will be doing is packing.

Neil Francis: Only two All Blacks would get in their 2005 side - New Zealand are now doubted favourites

"That was an exceptional side and the only players from the current side that would have a chance of getting in would be Brodie Retalick and Read."
I think our 2017 forward pack as a whole is much better than the 2005 version. Our current locking pair is pretty special.
Obviously 2017 backline is inexperienced - but I would take Smith with one arm over Marshall.2005 team:
- Mils Muliaina
- Doug Howlett
- Tana Umaga
- Aaron Mauger
- Sitiveni Sivivatu
- Dan Carter
- Justin Marshall
- Tony Woodcock
- Keven Mealamu
- Carl Hayman
- Ali Williams
- Chris Jack
- Jerry Collins
- Richie McCaw
- Rodney So'alo
Never heard of that Rodney So'alo fella.

Fucking Norwegians have turned on us... forecasted precipitation is growing.
Goddamn Scandinavians, might have to go over and seduce some of their women - just for, you know, the principle of it all.We've had rain all week and it's cold and wet right now....

Have to trust the Norwegian weather forecasters. Other than cross country skiing, all they ever talk about is the weather.

Scottish rugby is in full meltdown on the Facebook page I follow. It's fucken amusing. Aside from an argument for Seymour on the bench they're clutching at straws. I think some are still hoping for a late call up for Barclay or one of the Grays.

For the first time in my life I have bet against the ABs as an emotional hedge. Sold the ABs points handicap @ +12.5. I feel dirty.
I don't know if the NZ Tab offers it but many online bookies offer a first half only head to head, start and points total. The odds aren't quite as good, but you get the same effect with the chance of a win/win.
