2 scots is a disgrace
we gave every team a stiff test in the 6 nations beating wales and ireland
totally unjustified that not one of the gray brothers are in never mind both finn russell should of been in the team and not one of the players on the fringe of the squad made it
the lions is huge in the experience and growth of players scots are never going to get that growth to help us be more competitive if our best players are overlooked as badly as this

I do feel that Johnny Gray is particularly unlucky. Super strong position and AWJ purely picked on his previous body of work rather than any form his season (he has been probably the least ineffectual lock in the 6 Nations). Henderson a shock selection too. Would have picked Launchbury over Lawes too.
Can't complain about the backrow or front row, would have been my selections too.
Surprised by Te'o, Payne and Biggar in the backs.

Not one player putting their hand up here so far. Teo'o and Best the pick of a bad bunch.

Fair time to start speculating about what dirt Alun Wynn Jones has on Gatland imo. Worst second rower on the tour in form terms - over extended period too - but seemingly undroppable. Fear we could be looking at a 30 point defeat here.

Fair play, can't fault a win, showed their mettle to get back into it from 18-9 down with 20 mins left. Sonny Bill such a key piece for the All Blacks, presumably gets a suspension for that head shot.

Thought it this week but think it even more for next week. In the cold light of day, the Lions scrapped over the line against a team that played 55 mins with 14 men, and whom missed 3 very kickable penalties. Can't see anything but a double digit victory for NZ but would love to be proved wrong again.

Great for getting a price next week though with all the hype and believers distorting the price.

Obv no bookies offer it as there are so many combinations, but what do you reckon you'd get for a specific correct score prediction on Lions game? You'd think they could use the points expectations with some data about frequency of certain totals to do a request-a-bet style mechanic where punter enters their choice and it gives them a (big) price.
