    Scrum.com - Lions watch

    This usually makes for hilarious reading in a Lions season, and they're already off to a great start. Looks like they didn't watch any Rabo rugby over the weekend.

    I think Ireland have the best front row and back row to go on this tour, they must be on the first team surely.
    Come to think of it, why break up a team, may as well throw in Paulie, Nagle and Donnacha(s) too. I think its the best choice all round.

    pointless exercise, one week in all you will get is a bunch of guys many of whom won't even be playing first choice at club come end of season. Most internationals are still off FFS.

    And they didn't even include Richie Gray in it
    I've seen better centres in a box of Black Magic

    If Chrisitan Wade maintains his development he could yet make the squad, he is a fine winger.
    Have a good long hard look at the Clermont v Montpellier game and you will see as the game wears on Montpellier tackling with all the power of a new born. Will a thin red line containing POM, Ryan, POC, Casey, Dougie and Downey be so supine? What do you think? Let's see how handy ASM are after getting smashed backwards for forty minutes

    Any opinions on this article?

    Think he's top class, probably 2nd best 7 in Britain and Ireland as actual 7s go

    Very good player, potentially considering Warburton's injury issues could be Wales first choice by end of season and a clear run at test side. I think most on here rate him highly from what I've seen.

    He was as lame as a duck. Not the metaphorical lame duck either, but a real duck that was actually lame. Maybe from stepping on a land mine or something.

    He might be illegal as feck but Corbisiero destroyed the Ireland scrum in Twickers the last time we played the Orcs.

    Yes but then the only Irish player I would like to see in the squad is BOD, the rest I would like to see having the whole summer off and then doing a full pre season with their provinces.
