Yep. Online. Lucky to only be 7-0 at the moment.

Three brilliant tries so far, although I am finding Miles Harrison's commentary irritating beyond belief.

I've got Japanese commentary on. It's wonderful. I can just make up what they're saying.

No doubt who the better kicker is - and the Lion's pack shoved the Aussies all over the pitch in the first scrum!

And two Aussies stretchered off in neck braces before half-time! Starting to make up for that dreadful unpunished spear-tackle on O'Driscoll in the first match four years ago...

Aussies should have won that comfortably. If they had a decent kicker they would have.

Was it 5 kicks they missed throughout the match though? Not like any of them were right out on the touchline.

Reading a lot of nonsense on Twitter by football supporters who are part-time rugby fans. The Lions were VERY fortunate to win that game, and will have to improve by 20% if they are to win another this series. In the second half, we lacked the same level of intensity of the first half, and started to make poor calls. I feel for the kicker, and that was the ultimate difference.

Same. A nice profit of £91 from Forgotten Voice yesterday, and got a few on today. Including Courtesy Call, again trained by Nicky Henderson.

Did win £20 thanks to the Lions though, beating Australia by under 12 points.

Pity they have to turn the event into a fashion show.

Lethal Force won is sumptuous fashion indeed.

Better second test! Some cracking tackles - as hard as you like. Edge of the seat stuff now the Aussies are attacking.
