...could currently put out a side that would hammer the All Blacks. Just sayin. I'll post a team once I've had a think.
1. Jenkins 2. Ford 3. Jones 4. O Connell 5. Lawes 6. O Brien 7. Warburton 8. Faletau 9. Phillips 10. Hook 11. Ashton 12. Roberts 13. Tuilagi 14. North 15. Foden (These aren't the best individual players necessarily, I just think it would be a good team)
If he made it, it would be a captain and leader, rather than because I think he's currently a better player than Manu.
Given that the British Lions have invariably been completely useless since the early 1970s, do you really think they could beat the team that won the World Cup, without their most important player (and arguably best in the world)? Nah. If you compare each player in your lineup by position the All Blacks look a lot stronger imo. Lions teams just cannot seem to gel, so can't see why it would be any different. I would like to see them try anyway.
Ye, a team that almost got beat by one of the more poorer looking french teams they've had in a while and compare each player All Blacks look stronger You have got to be absolutely kidding yourself
You're kidding yourself if you think I'm kidding myself. We played like crap in the final without our best player and still won, against a team that knows how to play against us. If Carter had played we would probably have won by 10-20 points. All Blacks would put 20 points on a Lions side imo. I could probably name a better NZ player in all 15 positions looking at Farny's lineup
He'll just name the All Blacks side, extremely ignorent to the fact that quite a few of them arn't as good as the Lions alternatives
