B&I Lions Tour
I absolutely love Lions tours - the best, bar none, Rugby institution on earth. Just a magical event and having been in your in SA last time for all 10 games I'm gutted I'm not in Oz this tour! However playing Test Rugby is the next best thing!!
After squeezing out the, probably deserved, win on Saturday I'm hoping the Lions will be filled with a lot more confidence for Saturday.
Yes a cpl of players from each team are out but it looks like a cpl of key Lions players will be fit for Saturday - Roberts, BOWE and the man having quite an impact on the Rebels game right now - Manu Tuilagi!
O'Connell is a big loss for the Lions, ESP after his huge game on Saturday but Parling is a very good operator and will fit in very well!
The Wallabies have been quite hard hit from the first test but have some quality coming in to the team on both the starting team and the bench. The injuries almost showed Robbie Deans how to play the Aussie way - far faster, far looser, just look at the damage Beale did when he came on with his running ability! It asks the question - what would Cooper be able to do in this seris??
Either way Saturday is going to be another absolutely epic game of Test Rugby!!
Cheers
