Can't be helped but psychologically thinking you weren't in the team till Wednesday and now being in will not help his preparation. That said, I hope he comes out and plays a blinder.

Following on from my "i support 2 teams, the Force and whoever is playing against the Tahs", i think the Lions will scrape home by 5pts. The free flowing Lions of last year were not quite there against the Cheetahs and im expecting them to improve just enough to edge the Tahs.
Skelton and Phipps out

Yeah - Jake Gordon's a similar type of player to Phipps but with more potential imo. Lucas is the more rounded No 9. Has all the skills and a heart as big as himself.
Yes. Maclean Jones has been added to the bench for a potential Super Rugby debut.

Skelton is a huge loss particularly against big Saffas. He played well last week.
Chuck in Phipps being out and I think the Lions will maul the Tahs by plenty (20)
My tip means fuckall as I tipped the Reds to win comfortably agin the Force

You are probably on point. Throw in altitude and a relatively rookie halves pairing. Could be a long night.

With that being the 5th match today, with two more thereafter, it will be a long night.
I am far more worried about our tight five with Skelton out - he was most of our go-forward last week and I think the rest of the tight mob were pretty ineffective. Bet Lousi is wishing he hadn't jumped ship; he would have slotted in perfectly and Toleafoa looks a bit light on to me as a starter. Hope he blows me away tonight.
Lucas is probably our best passing 9 and Hegarty will be better for the run. I'm not overly concerned there, I think we'll get beaten up in the pigs and that's what has me concerned.

Luckily you guys have a game breaker - Israel

Force stitched him up pretty nicely last week. Mind you, Rona did a pretty good job on Kerevi on Thursday too.
The comms had a hard on for a red card too. Not sure it met that threshold.

Good to see 5 to 10 south africans turn out to watch this game.
Watching Jaws on TV at the same time and keep hearing Quint "All ahead full Hooper.....Hooper".....
