One of the great things about the Lions is that there's often a surprise when a player who hasn't been that successful for his country puts in several brilliant performances.

Yeah BR, Jeremy Davidson springs to mind from a few years back, John Bevan from 50 years back and a young student PE teacher who tried to teach me pole vault, and failed, Roy Bergiers in 1974

Totally agree, if your style does not fit with how the national coach sees the game you wont get a look in, the lions is a great alternative.

Only just spotted Tom Youngs' punishment for his "discussion" with the ref at the end of the Bristol game:

To avoid a one match ban next Feb, he has to take a refereeing course and referee two community matches to get a greater insight into the demands on a ref :) :)

Lions game was enjoyable

A bit of an exhibition match, thought Japan showed real flair though and the lions will have to be a load better to compete in SA. But didn't fall apart with body 14 to finish.

Very sad to hear about AWJ's injury (I foolishly missed watching the game and didn't even record it :( )
