James Zorab

Pop Duhi at 11 he can’t be any worse defensively than Lowe has been and is much better in attack. Kingers goes to 14. Both wings now become arguably stronger than they have been in the tests.

I remember watching him get knocked out at Murrayfield a few years ago. Was the most upsetting thing I’ve seen happen in person. It takes a lot to get back out there but it’s really brave to put your long term health over career glory.

Nah watch him pick his baby boy to start!

I think we’ve lost the buttocks

JGP out and Ben white on the bench. Finn out too probably. Some how James Lowe starts again.

“Referees were too weak to give it” he’s a grumpy man.

Aki can’t do a useful full 80, Farrell should have replaced him.

Not even in the same post code as Sualii for his break.

Divided by number of players on tour from each nation as well…it wouldn’t even be close.

Luckily we have James Ryan to come on to close out the game through…

Aki isn’t a passer so they were never going to have the 12/13 connection. I feel like he’s having to fight for opportunities.

I think the big performances from some players are about to been found to be exceptions rather than “test match animal” shite.

Read it on the BBC sport app when the team was released. “Tuipulotu has a tight hamstring, but Aki may have started ahead of him in any event.” I guess it’s more opinion that insider info.

From what I read Farrell was going for Aki/ringrose from the outset but his hand was forced. Properly rewarding mediocrity from last week and punishing the only bright sparks from the backs.

Can’t help but think if he’d been included in the original squad over Hansen he would have absolutely lit the tour up. Gutted for him, such a special talent.

Get Darcy in

Morgan should be in the test team in my opinion but the outrage of no Welsh harks back to the Blair Murray hurdle in the 6N. It’s only an issue that needs to be addressed when it happens to them.

That’s what I’ve been saying. All the rags will have their “Finn Russell let us down” columns pre written.

Doesn’t look like he’s picked players on form otherwise I think the pack would look a lot different. Curry hasn’t really done anything, I thought Morgan was at least due a bench spot. Tadhg Furlong hasn’t exactly looked up to the task either. I’m sure it’ll be all Finn’s fault if they lose though.

“Get out of jail free card” right there.

I honestly think they’ll never forgive him for what he did to them in the Calcutta Cup (press & players). Golden boy Pollock misses the midfield tackle along with Curry and they breakaway and score then Pollock coughs up the ball to end the game.

He should be in over the sympathy pick Williams.

Yeah Smith wasn’t accurate all night. Shipping terrible balls getting others in trouble.

“Disappointment for Fin Smith and The Lions” was an odd thing to say.

All of a sudden smith can do a long ball to the wing.

Marcus Smith knew what he was doing there. Shitebag

Absolutely mad that call. Doing everything to help Leicester.

Craig Evans was excellent yesterday in the Edinburgh game. Calling forward passes, offside players in the back line. It was refreshing to see.

Mad they thought there was chest first. Direct shoulder to head.

Convinced he’s not used to throwing to the shorter Muncaster, as soon as as it was Skinner again he got his target
