  1. To comment 2: I guess your second string are second­ rate then. Should've put men in instead of boys.

  2. If the Lions tours are played to boost the development­ of Rugby in the host nations then we have to question­ whether there is any benefit in developing such­ thuggery; which should not be entertained on a rugby­ field? Perhaps it should be face to face in a ring?
    It­ is a hard sport and the rules should be applied to­ protect hard players.
    We have to question the merit of­ any further Lions tours to South Africa if the hosts­ game is to be "win at all costs", more foul­ than fair!

    What must the next generation of­ international players think?

    I love the game, but am­ fearful of where it is going in SA.

  3. Well, with the number of injuries on the British and­ IRISH Lions (Yahoo take note), the Boks were facing the­ Lions second string today also. Overall they did a­ great job in the face of an overly aggressive home­ side.
