AUNZ Invitational XV v British & Irish Lions Saturday, 12 July 2025, 8:00pm Adelaide Oval

[Shiggins]

Can we get some decent refs in these lions games ? They are the biggest tests of the year regardless of where Australia sit. We deserve top 5 refs. Not pedantic french Roach's. I realise he is Georgian or something but cmon

 

[Heavyd]

This ref has the Melbourne test. World rugby not interested in making rugby watchable in this country.

 

[Shiggins]

Seriously hook Havilii.

He has been so poor. He was one of the main players I was looking forward to watching

I would prefer doleman to what I have seen so far this tour

 

[Shiggins]

Ausnz are really struggling through the centers. Just poor. 9 not great either. Who is the 9 replacement ?

 

[K974]

Lions should be playing Fiji Samoa or Tonga instewd of this lot
These warm up games are an utter load of rubbish

These warm up games are an utter load of shire

Don't watch then?

 

[Shiggins]

Lions all a mile offside. They got back to where they were which was already offside

Lions defence looking ominous for next weekend

 

[Tomthumb]

This ref is honestly dreadful

The tour gives aus rugby millions. That’s the purpose of the volume of games. It’s a money making apparatus.

Lions defence looking ominous for next weekend

Every defense looks ominous when they are constantly offside

 

[Shiggins]

I wouldn't have thought Pollock would be a line out option. Interesting.

 

[The_Brown_Hornet]

We’re going to have to come up with some plans to counter their line speed and continual offside play.

 

[Major Tom]

They haven’t been onside all tour. Hard to watch.

 

[Shiggins]

Wow. Calls offside but let's lions do it all game ? Wtf.

 

[K974]

Aussies moaning abut the ref
Shock

 

[Major Tom]

The irony of that offside call. It was right though.

 

[The Ghost of Raelene]

This is ass
