    SBW must be laughing. Te'o kept him (relatively) quiet - don't think Farrell will do the same. As for AWJ selection - just crazy. And Warburton? Slight Welsh bias I suspect. ABs won't be worried at all.
    My biggest concern is finding somewhere around the Waterford area of Eire to watch it ...... :emoticon-0101-sadsm

    Johanna Konta beat world number 1 Kerber in straight sets at Eastbourne and goes into the semi-finals, but had a very serious fall at match point landing flat on her back. Got up after a delay and won, but lets hope that with Wimbledon on the horizon she isn't going to suffer for it. She is a seriously good player and, even more importantly, has the determination and temperament to go with it...this could be the year to really go for Wimbledon with Serena out of the picture.

    Good luck to all the athletes running in this weekend's trials for a place in next month's World Championships. Would love to see British sprinters running under 10 seconds consistantly, our 800m ladies running inside 2 minutes and the 1500m men performing at around 3.34 in the finals of World Championships.

    Same start for the lions. Good momentum, good drive. Error.

    Chances need to be taken!

    First progression forward from The All Blacks and they miss a straight forward kick! Blimey.

    Had to be...the player couldn't get out of the way of a shoulder charge. Could have broken his neck.

    Absolutely correct decision, and that's a massive boost for the Lions!

    Shocking from Williams. Fully deserved to be sent off.
