It may be too late for the test series unfortunately but LSL (Lukhan Salakaia-Loto) has to be playing himself into the selection frame for TRC and beyond. The contrast with a seemingly undroppable tighthead lock is frankly night and day. Has been best on ground IMO.

I’ve seen enough - Tupou and LSL (Lukhan Salakaia-Loto) (Lukhan Salakaia-Loto) back into the Wallabies starting XV.

Lukhan in particular has been killing it.

I thought this after his first test with the reds
Then even more so in test 2 for the combined side
And now more again

instead we keep frost and Williams who add nothing

Great to see some proper mongrel being deployed here. LSL (Lukhan Salakaia-Loto) is having a belter.

 

[KOB1987]

Boys. Who isn't enjoying this game. Come on FNP!

The Farrells

 

[Drew]

We look better

Finally someone picks off an out the back play. It’s their go to move every time.

a rush defence and someone going hard on the ball will screw the Lions rhythm

 

[Tomthumb]

Yep, completely isolated. Would've been an immediate turnover if he went to ground. Right option to keep it alive.

If he steps back in the is enough support there

 

[Derpus]

Is it too late to call LSL (Lukhan Salakaia-Loto) in? Schmidt has bottled it with his omission.

 

[Super Hooper]

LSL (Lukhan Salakaia-Loto), Seru Uru, Feliuai and Reilly match the Lions in physicality

 

[molman]

Sadly the FNP bench is a big step down, and some of the forwards are already looking a little gassed.

Meanwhile the Lions are getting away with murder as usual.

I'm enjoying seeing one of our teams get away with a bit of offside play. Refreshing.

As he did for the Reds, surprised he isn’t in gold

 

[rugbyAU]

Bring in LSL (Lukhan Salakaia-Loto) to the Wallabies for Williams

 

[Linerunner2023]

Wallabies need more pacific power
Tupou and LSL (Lukhan Salakaia-Loto) along with Skelton, Valetini and Gleeson all in for test 2

we can’t win doing the same thing

a side with those players can overpower the lions pack

 

[PhilClinton]

I’d rather have a match fit LSL (Lukhan Salakaia-Loto) than Skelton playing for the Wallabies at this point.

The bloke genuinely hates these pasty sunburned fuckers.

Wouldn’t be surprised if Joe has rung the bat phone and he’s on the pine soon.

 

[The 6 Seat]

Lions look a bit static. Bit like a broken record. Alot of the same that only works when you are a winger down. Alot of desperation. I think some of these Lions lads are maybe trying to put themselves into the spotlight and forgetting about the team. van der Flier and Pollock have been pretty much absent.

 

[Drew]

How good was Uru manhandling Pollock

Completely agree. Looks like a century of hatred being released. Thats what was missing early! The willpower is everything.

 

[PhilClinton]

Nah I don’t think it’s too late - he’s already in Melbourne. Just pay for a few nights extra accom.

 

[Rugby Head]

Far out, we need LSL (Lukhan Salakaia-Loto) in the wallabies game. How is he not even in the squad

 

[parkfootyenthusiast2]

The bloke genuinely hates these pasty sunburned fuckers.

When they asked him in the pre game what he wants out of his third game against the Lions and he said… a fourth game.

I went from six to midnight.
