British Lions v Argentina

[Mattasaurus]

game getting a bit scrappy - Lions score feels inevitable to me.... Pumas may need a moment of brilliance yet

[game_film]

He’s unlucky there. Knocked off balance and slid up

[MiketheSnow]

TMO must have heard me

Much better handling of the offence

[game_film]

At least kick deep

[Bones]

Lions to not win one international. Schmidt will study this and get his team wreaking havoc.

[MiketheSnow]

Nail biter but thoroughly deserved win for the Argies

Farrell needs a new plan

[Bones]

Oof. I get the feeling quite a few guys played themselves outta the top side.

[sparky]

All over. Los Pumos win!

[game_film]

@Bones who in mind?

Really, entertaining game, attacking shape looked solid for Lions but the defense looked like what you expect for a scratch team.

[sparky]

The Lions first defeat in their first game since 1971 apparently.

[game_film]

@Bones Hahaha. He’s got no business going on tour.

Crying piss on their way up Baggot Street. You love to see it.

Picking a blow out. Lions Argentina by 40. Portugal has got them fit.

Bloody autocorrect

[Canes4life]

The Lions looked average as fuck. So much for Northern Rugby being so much superior to Southern Rugby.

[Tordah]

Lots of passes going to ground and into opposition hands by both teams. Entertaining game, nonetheless.

Interesting hearing the commentators say there are more important games to come... Disagree with that. While this was weirdly not deemed a Test match, it's a game against another international side - one they'd never previously lost to.
