Daly playing himself into the Test 15 shirt
Fascinated by this young chap, seems to be playing out of his skin. Its weird, there used to be an England player with the same name a few years back who couldn't catch, wasn't quick enough and had definitely had his day as an international player - funny that this chap has turned up with the same name and looking remarkably similar physically.

The good news for the wallabies is, they appear to be running the Irish "wrap to make space" back line.
So if you can jam them at centre you can stop them.
The problem is the inexperience of the wallabies 13

Yeah, every Aussie team will be working on how to defend that.

Beckenham players age like a fine wine.

Too casual when the move was on out wide.

Lions with a huge talent disparity.

A gulf in fact.
Yes, they're Test players versus provincials, but the provincials have more time together which should make a difference.
And we've got a system that is paper thin for professionals

Oh if that was a Reds player rugby on reddit would already have a "was this a missed card?" Post by now.
And some stupid Irish fluffybunny pontificating it was a straight red

Not sure the lions backs were 5m behind the scrum...
Very rarely called for the attacking side at any level

Yeah, although it's not that often they're right next to the halfback.

Staunch defence from the Lions. All those phases and not making any metres.

@ACT-Crusader Reds losing their shape too, late arrivals to clean. Lions at test match intensity would have won a penalty there i reckon.

That was a pretty set of phases
