Cole has gone from a solid dependable tight head with good skills around the park to a liability vunipolus selection on the bench was also highlighted as sound. I would say to keep Adam jones on for the full 80, I know it would be hard but I am certain he could cope as long as he doesn't get caught in defence.
They scrum situation is based around this obsession with keeping a ball in and winning a penalty, that is fine when you dominate a team, the lions after the changes did not dominate and therefore had to get the ball out quick.
All credit to the Aussie they looked like they were going to get ruined up front and backed it up. I think their bench will start next week or certainly some of them will.
The gameplan doesn't threaten the way the Aussies play and defend, you need more width and more pace onto the ball, the static one out rugby until, something opens up, will never open up the Aussies.
It has to be more creative first phase possession.
