My Pick of Lions Test Team

Today we will here from Geech on his team to take on the Bok this Saturday in the First test. I am going to go on record and put down the team I think he will pick, not nesery the team I would pick but the team he will.

My Lions Team:
Lee Byrne,Tommy Bowe,Brian O'Driscoll Jamie Roberts,Ugo Monye, Stephen Jones,M Phillips,G Jenkins, L Mears,P Vickery, A-W Jones , Paul O'Connell, T Croft, Martyn Williams, Jamie Heaslip.
Subs: Matthew Rees, Adam Jones,Nathan Hines,D Wallace, H Ellis,Ronan O'Gara, Riki Flutey.

I pick Wallace on the bench because Williams has to start and if he played 6 then AW Jones could not start as then we will not have a jumper at one. No Sheridan because I think Jenkins has been out standing in the open and we need a sub on the bench who can come on for Vickery as there no Murry Jones is that man. Shane Williams has not been on form.

Jenkins made Lions kicking coach

You would of seen Mr Jenkins is now the Lions team kicking guru. Gerald Davies the Lions boss said "We found out that Neil is going to be in South Africa during the latter stages of the tour,".

How funny hay, Neil just happened to be come to SA when the Lions and his co workers where out there. I can not help but think that Jenkins coming on at this late time is to keep the WFU happy as they have just knick there hole management set up. They probably did not let Jenkins go, so to save the Wales face they just played the game and bought him over after the Welsh America tour. Also it stop the press, in pre-tour columns, saying how much the management is made up of Taffs. What ever the reason it good to see him, we all know how much the kicks might cost us at test time.
