North injured yesterday, didn't look great.
To win is not as important as playing with style!

I thought he was very good at 13 in the 6N. I was a bit dubious about him there due to his concussion issues and was worried about him but I think he’s got a great chance of starting there for the Lions outside Henshaw.Wayne Richardson Fan Club wrote: ↑Sun Apr 25, 2021 9:01 pm North injured yesterday, didn't look great.

Launchbury has a ruptured ACL, so if he was in contention, he's out now for a good while. Shame because I think he had an outside chance.

Feel really bad for Launchbury, should have been a Lion in 2017.

One of the biggest travestys in Lions selection history. Was outstanding that 6N and comfortably outplayed The Warrior in a MOTM performance vs Wales. Typical Gatland!

I like Launchbury. He’s an old style second row who isn’t overly talented but always gives his all and makes an impact. But MOTM, dream on!

Alongside Itoje is Wales colossus Jones. Both Telfer and McGeechan are united in their admiration for the Welsh captain, and both believe he should lead the Lions this summer.
He is the natural captain," said McGeechan. "I think on and off the field he would be by some distance the natural leader that you would want there."
Sorry Scott if this blows your mind.

Love in again! Tell me one “elite” lock at the top of his game he has ever bettered in a game? I’ll wait........
Just for reference I’ll give you Retalick for Itoje who has done it not once,but twice,for two different teams too

Better make sure The Warrior gives Simon Shaw a call just in case he needs his hand holding from the scary SA bogeymen
