British Lions 1st Test prediction?

Posted at: 2014-07-08 
Lions to come out a distinct second best......36 to 17??

As a Lions fans I think a lot of us seem to be underestimating the strength of a Wallaby side. Our backrow could be much better. I would much rather Tipuric and Sean O'Brien as our flanks as opposed to Croft and Warburton. Tipuric is fast, mobile and gets the job done at 7. Sean O'Brien is such a rounded flanker as he has his big barging runs, which would instantly give us front foot ball, and also maybe end up in a try if he went through an O'Connor in the Wallaby backs, but he'd also act as another 7 as he's worked so hard on that part of his game, which could well be needed against Hooper who from what I've gathered would be pushing Pocock hard is he was even available for this tour. Gill is no bad player either. For some reason I'm just not convinced by this Lions team just yet, I've a feeling they may lose today, but come back very strongly and win the second. And the third will be a classic. Its just a gut feeling though, the third test has been rubbish for the past two tours, hopefully this one will go down right to the wire.

Your going to be in for a nasty then LOL!
