The British and Irish Lions. 8pm BST tonight. Miss it at your peril, the Argentinian under practiced team vs a scratch side of superstars. Who will win?

Top 14, and Super Rugby in play offs too. So this weekend has greatness written all over it!

Lions were massive favourites! Looking like a club side tonight though

Man, Argentina up 10 more points since I commented .. hope I didn't jinx anything.

Lol, Lions did that all themselves. Handling errors galore. Shite line out. Poor in the air. And an attack that went what? Half the time. Aki on his try was literally surprised to get the ball!

Lions looking the creakier side so far (23") and very tight. Not winning much in the air either. But wow this is a physical match
