George North knee scan proves a blow for Wales

Glad to hear you’re not ‘Zulu’ even if they are your countrymen!

LSL has been one of the few forwards to really get stuck into the Lions physically in each of his three performances but doesn’t even get a mention.

I like what I’ve seen from Lynagh so far and I hope they persist with him.

Many of these ppl give up their time voluntarily only to be treated like criminals. Great for the losing coach to beat the pinyata ofc.

I hesitate to read too much into this WB performance though. We’ve seen bouncebacks like this before - remember the 23-20 at Dunedin in the run-up to the RWC 2023? WB was 17-3 up in that one under Eddie.

So I don’t feel Melbourne represents a mean ‘standard of performance’ which they can repeat game in, game out.

Two tests away in South Africa could make them or break them. I guess how the third Lions test goes will be key.

Spot on.

The contact itself is either shoulder to shoulder or shoulder to neck, impossible to tell which!

As I understand it Tizzano was not required to undergo an HIA at the end of the game, so what does that tell you? He was also also into the ruck at the side so the first tech pen was on him.

None of us can really say whether Jac Morgan made contact with Tizzano’s shoulder or neck first, and I can show you 20 instances in every game where similar instances occur without pen.
