I had to laugh when Moore had a go at Green and Gold Rugby for the use of the word 'arrogance'. And then proceeded to write a column in which he bagged an Australian customs officials for having the temerity to check an Englishman's bag....which turned out to contain undeclared items. I mean...
I was given two tickets to the match today and so far everyone I know in London who would be interested is either away for the weekend or already going.
Does anyone want it?

I was nervous as hell all week about this game. I expected an English backlash and was talking down our chances at work.
Then this morning, out for breakfast, I happened to sit at a table next to Michael Cheika. He seemed so relaxed and happy. I wished him the best of luck. I walked away...

Get the feeling this could be Tony's face after pretty much everything he says? Looks like he notices or remembers that there's a camera on him right at the end.

Also, Genia. Just clear the ball from the back quickly. Gregan used to annoy me as well with his pick it up and take a few steps before passing. Puts enormous pressure on the team.
I just can't work out why we kept kicking the ball away, especially when we were behind. Why not run it from the back? Even Cooper kicked the ball away when we had a 4 on 2. The Kiwi commentators couldn't work it out either.
Also, I only remember Folau getting the ball once apart from the...
On the subject of who will play at 10: Everyone has been expecting Link to name Cooper, then there is a leak that it is going to be To'omua.
Maybe this means it's going to be Foley. Link, the wily old fox.
I'm on edge here as an expat living in the UK. Will be watching the game tomorrow surrounded by Poms. I'll be wearing the old school wallabies jersey with pride though.
Is anyone else nervous about the Lions coming out and surprising us by throwing the ball around and running it? It could catch...
I remember talking to a bloke who faced Johnson in state cricket. He said something along the lines of Johnson being the scariest guy to face because getting him by him hurt a hell of a lot more than by other bowlers - I think he said that he bowled a really 'heavy' ball.
I'm a fan of Johnson...
Eric Murray has balls of steel for taking on Manu Vatuvei. Eric Murray is a physiological freak, he'll have the reach advantage, and he's been sparring with Liam Messam. But good God, Manu Vatuvei!
I hope you're right. I think if we get our best players on the park then we've got a pretty good chance. If our forwards can gain parity I'm confident we'll do it.
I'm more worried about who the coach will be. Although Deans' record against Gatland isn't too shabby, this won't be Wales that...
Good luck! Hats off for dedication. My old rowing coach used to make us do a set of 100 squats (jumping squats for the last 20) before every session. That was bad enough. I imagine 200 is going to hurt like hell.
If you want to mix it up a bit, a good one to do before, after or half way...
