If he proves himself anywhere near back to full fitness, he'll have to go.<BR/>This Lions team will cope with any rough stuff. O'Connell is another McBride.

Prefer Flutey to Henson.<BR/><BR/>Take Fitzgerald - he is the future. <BR/><BR/>Take Kearney for Armitage.<BR/><BR/>I will be at all three tests. Had to buy season tickets for Loftus and Ellis Park. Worked out a lot cheaper than the current £250 on offer.<BR/><BR/>Boks will be hard to beat. Strong, big, athletic and used to the rock hard grounds of the Highveld. Interesting no test at Newlands(wet and soft).<BR/><BR/>Boks always rate Lions tour on a par with NZ. This is the big one. They have never forgotten the 55 Lions(Morgan/Jeeps/Butterfield/O'Reilly) and even less 74(Merv the Swerve)Savonarolahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07500688050397705993noreply@blogger.com
