Not a snowball's chance in hell. The all-blacks were instructed to lose last weekend so as to keep the public interest up and maximise revenues for the marketeers.

Jordie Barrett expected to start at FB on Saturday. Could end up goal kicking too ahead of Beauden.

Lions out daytripping and pinting 4 days before the biggest game they could possibly have had.

Who thought that would be a good idea in any shape or form?

NZ by at least 15pts

Probably would.

Indeed they were - just like Kilkenny were instructed to lose to Wexford in a similarly Sky Sports-broadcast match so the GAA could generate a bit of interest and profit from the resulting bumper, 60k plus crowd at the Leinster hurling final.

Ben Teo'o sipping a beer is all I saw.

As far as I know PL footballers and AFL players have a 4 day drink ban pre games.

Not forgetting the teams who Sky bribed to let Leicester win the EPL.

Unchanged team and subs for Saturday. Thought McGrath might get in ahead of Vunipola

He should have.
Vunipola was very poor last day out and might have offered a bit of impact off the bench.

Immortality beckons for a number of Irishmen tomorrow .  The Lions are massive underdogs but can do it .
