Northsea80 Posted April 19, 2017 Share Posted April 19, 2017 Strong Scotland squad to tour this summer, That's something I suppose. I don't think I'll bother to watch the lions unless one of Hogg or Seymour are starting. 12 Welsh players, what the f**k? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dogmc Posted April 19, 2017 Share Posted April 19, 2017 Apparently the biggest lions test defeat is 38 - 6 in 83 v nz. Would be amazed if this isn't a record breaking tour..... (albeit that record was 4pts per try) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
salmonbuddie Posted April 19, 2017 Share Posted April 19, 2017 Hogg & Seymour should bin the Lions and tour with Scotland, that's a fucking disgrace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Lambies Doos Posted April 19, 2017 Author Share Posted April 19, 2017 Hogg & Seymour should bin the Lions and tour with Scotland, that's a fucking disgrace. I would have so much respect for Hogg and Seymour if they told Gatland to get to fuk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dogmc Posted April 19, 2017 Share Posted April 19, 2017 I would have so much respect for Hogg and Seymour if they told Gatland to get to fuk. Even if it was a diplomatic 'hamstring' because it's gonna be a toxic experience on that tour. It would be particularly bad playing in the back 3 of a side that is overwhelmed and then being scapegoated for 'defensive frailty'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the best Scottish team in years, I thought the likes of Johnny Gray, Hamish Watson and Finn Russell were certs to get in. Watson is a shout but Russell was never getting in. Gray is a surprise but Launchberry is in a competitive position. Hope the Super Rugby sides dick them too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dogmc Posted April 19, 2017 Share Posted April 19, 2017 Biggar is a crazy pick over Russell. Welsh fans wanted him dropped for Davies. Henderson n awj over gray n launchberry is also madness. It's a competitive position but there's clear daylight between guys who have been left and those who've been picked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me Russell is no where near consistent enough. He has had some wonderful games and others which are all over the place. He needs to develop more. Henderson is mad, but I can understand why Gray isn't picked. The capitulation at Twickenham cost a lot of people places. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd have been stunned if Russell had been called up. I'm not shocked by Henderson either. But some of the Welsh guys - Moriarty? - are a complete joke.

same_ol_g35 Posted April 19, 2017 Share Posted April 19, 2017 Seen this coming a mile off. He was never going to give our players a fair crack at selection when he could take an out if form Welshman instead. The guys a joke, they'll play 'Warrenball' get hammered in all three tests and struggle against the provincial sides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You forgot North - stick-on to get injured Also Murray - couldn't handle getting a bit of treatment from Glasgow. How's he going to fucking handle being blootered into the middle of next week by the likes of Savea? Liam Williams is good for a spot of petulance too.

flyingscot Posted April 19, 2017 Share Posted April 19, 2017 Warburton gave up the captaincy of Wales cause 'it was affecting his game'. Doesn't captain Cardiff. Captains Lions. Solid.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
