'What are you talking about? Did I just watch a different series'

In 5 years time, the only thing remembered will be the B&L won the series. That is sport.

Pfft! He must be high!! Australia were the better team in 2 of the tests - Stolen series! AB’s and the Boks would taken them apart……

I know it’s not all about size 😂but the way it’s going at the mo when it comes to international forwards bigger is better with Lions looking a tad undersized at times

I was also wondering same thing. Wilson the captain intimidated the ref in 2nd test and 3rd. I eat he'd both twice just to see were the officials consistent, I conclude they were not.

In first halves in both tests refs did not control Wobblies in same way the Lions. Looked only at Lions, overlooked so much from Skelton he should have been yellow carded in first half. Kelleher sent packing was totally unwarranted.

The match was engineered by World Rugby because the game is under pressure in Sus due to their own football game

The Wobblies 9 got away because he's small but also should have been carded. So much went unpunished and reffed listened too much to Wilson every time he blew against them watch it back.

Only in Lions supporters heads and the team and management would they have been greatest Lions team of all time. I so tired of this. Greatest NZ team of all time 2011 to 2018, greatest Aus 1992 to 1994, greatest Lions 71 to 74. These guys dont even come close

lol and I hope Greenwood wasn’t being serious either. Actually, I think I recall a similar line from him in the past, must be his thing.

Aussie were certainly the best team in this tour, there can be no doubt about it. Lions (supports or players) can think themselves better, but unless you show it it’s.. meaningless.

This Lions side was not the greatest ever, they were adequate only and by the end of the series a moderate Aussie side established parity with them. Both SA & NZ would beat the Lions and Argentina actually did earlier. Perspective seems to be lacking with the scribes extolling their virtues!!

Will Greenwood just proving the point that NH pundits do absolutely no analysis on their opposition. A +1 point differential over Australia over 3 matches shows how wrong they are.

The presenter on Stan Sports was joking to Greenwood. It was a joke. Nothing more, nothing less.

It’s sad to see so many former greats of the rugby world prostitute themselves for their corporate bosses. I’m struggling to find any truly objective journalists, commentators, podcasters or pundits. They’re all toeing the corporate line.

Greenwood is delusional. Lions were bang average this entire series and would have been whipped 3-0 by either NZ or SA playing like that. Australia are not a good side and 4 countries combined managed to win the series by the skin of their teeth in the last minute of the 2nd Test. Farrell is the most overrated coach in the world.

Let’s be clear, the Lions may have won the series but without doubt, Australia were the big winners.

Hopefully this helps them rebuild the fan base for rugby union and continue to build on the momentum that Joe Schmidt has generated.

They played the best rugby throughout the series and got better with each and every game.

Should the score have been 22-0?

Prior to Morgan’s try circa in the 61st min, at Game Time 60:56 when Sheehan took the tap, he taps the ball with his right foot while his left foot is half a metre in front of the ball/mark.   Is that allowed or should both feet only be allowed to be in line with the ball at best or better still behind the ball?  

Then in a subsequent phase, within the same attacking phase as the try, at 61:34, Hugo Keenan was tackled by 2 Australians with both of Kennan’s knees on the ground but without releasing the ball, Keenan gets back up off his knees & keeps driving through the tackle going for the line.   Is that allowed? Tom Curry then joins the ruck but infringes by lifting the right leg of one of the Aus tacklers.  Should any of those actions by Sheehan, Keenan or Curry have been noticed by the 4 Officials, Morgan’s try disallowed & a Penalty awarded to Aus?

Then leading up to Stuart’s try in the 79th min, at Game Time 78:31, Genge has  2 Aussies directly in front of him but Genge leaves his feet & dives over the 2 Aussie tacklers in an attempt to score a try.   Is that allowed? I refer you to World Rugby Law Clarification 3-2022.  

Genge having been stopped from scoring, the next action is Owen Farrell coming in from the side then launching himself shoulder/head first over the top of Genge with no attempt to wrap to take out a couple of Aus players trying to assist in preventing the progress of Genge.   Owen Farrell having skittled a couple of Aussies then ends up in the Dead Ball area completely off his feet.  Should any of those actions by Genge or Farrell have been noticed by the 4 Officials, Stuart’s try disallowed & a Penalty awarded to Aus?

Listening to Will Greenwood in commentary yesterday I think he was definately watching a different game to me!!.

His constant cheerleading of the lions, particularly finn Russell was both tedious and largely disingenuous.

The wallabies played them of the park in all facets of the game.

The class of 2025 lions have been very average indeed.
