    Am I the only one seeing forward pass after forward pass by the Australians?

    They are just trying to get our lads rattled and drawn into a scrap as that's the onky way they will get the advantage.

    Yes lots of them. Could be the camera angle. But they are playing dirty aswell.

    Aki not playing well. Knock ons and giving away penalties. And on cue he does it again.

    These weather conditions look horrendous. Difficult to get into any real rhythm. Suiting the Aussies as it's all just physical and scrappy.

    We are simply playing poor. But there’s a long way to go yet.

    Good half for the Aussies. See if they have more stamina and better replacements in the second half.

    Yeah a tough 1st half. Aussies definitely coping better with the adverse weather. Using it to their advantage.

    Itoje and Freeman both off injured.
    Lions need a very big 2nd half.

    The break will suit them most as they'll be able to keep first line players on longer.
    Given their replacements aren't of the same quality as ours.

    And mostly by Aki who has been abysmal. Again at fault for that last try.

    Aki and Gibson-Park both been disappointing today. But a well deserved try and it's now game on, 20 mins left.
