Andrew Price
I know, I am saying that I prefer it when the Kiwi's make the threads as it is not made with B&I Lion delusion.
Everyone except them knows that the game is going to be a walkover for the All Blacks.

Joshua Perez
All Blacks will be obviously dominant in every area of the game except the scrum (where they'll be close to parity) but will have their momentum shut down repeated by the referee and at least 1 potential try disallowed by the TMO so that the Lions lose by as little as possible, ideally by less than 7 but probably between 7-14.
Screencap this
Julian Ortiz
My brother in laws brother plays for Harbour
Austin Smith
Absolutely fuming lads
Mam decided that today, the day of the first Lions test would be the day she doesn't cook me a fry up
Instead she has already went and bought all the ingredients, but she told me if I want it I have to make it myself, DID NOT NEED THIS TODAY

I can't believe the team that meets up once every four years doesn't have loads of organised chants.
I'm sure the mighty New Zealand fans will put them to shame with a verse of their famous song "God Defend New Zealand"
Jaxon Peterson
Not funny kys
Luke Howard
felt a little bit bad when stephen moore thanked all the supporters for coming out and giving their support. he seemed to really mean it too :(
Nathaniel White
SBW vs Teo Wew lads
Adam Cook
rugby. better than watching the wallabies no need to be like that m8
Luis Morgan
God Defend New Zealand is objectively the best national anthem in the rugby world. Maybe a few of the Euro ones have more history but NZ's gets you the most passionate just singing it.
Leo Sanchez
Sean O Brien is a big goym
Nathaniel Turner
daily reminder that the lions couldn't beat the worst nz super rugby team
Tyler Bailey

moore should fuck off desu terrible captain tpn to start with ready/latu to come on when he gets concussed
Samuel Morris
Matt Todd is a shitter
Chase Walker
Daily reminder that we beat the best super rugby team
Luis Foster
It's not that they don't care, it's that they're not good enough and they know it so even if they were they wouldn't perform at the level they need to.
It's a Sydney psychological attitude created by the high-pressure highly-critical environment, and is why we need more rough and ready country boys on the team, and definitely less Sydneysiders.
Jack Parker
Curry for dinner to celebrate our British guests lads.
Wyatt Ross
Do you really expect me to believe that the only images you have stored in your entire drive are anime reaction ones?
If so, found the Reds supporter

Easton Cook
Provincial ba ba's lads
Angel Russell
I think a lot of them don't care, or aren't that fussed in terms of result. they know they're the best candidate for the position, so their performance doesn't mean anything because it's not in jeopardy.
If God Defend New Zealand was any good at pumping your lads up, they wouldn't need to do a haka. It's pretty telling that in other sports, like soccer, where they only listen to GDNZ, they're shit.
Scottish anthem is better btw.
Levi Lee
What position do you play mate?
