Watching Wilkinson sat distraught after the 3rd test by himself was painful, to do what he did two years later in the same stadium against the same opposition. What a legend of the game.

Unbelievable how much bigger players have become in 20 years. Watched a video of Haskell mucking around with Farrell during a training camp and Farrell is carrying so much more muscle mass than, say, Catt or any of the other centres in this video. And Haskell... he's like a different species. Even "big" guys like Lawro and Johnson... they're about the same size as George North and he plays on the wing/centre. Not making any comparison to skill level or anything, but strength and power, the modern players are goliaths.
@patrickharrison871

I think your comparison is a bit over stated. The baggy kits makes the players look less muscular-there are plenty of players in this games that are as athletic and heavy as modern players. Joe Roff is as big as George North and actually quicker. Danny Grewcock in 2001 was as tall and actually heavier than Maro Itoje (Grewcock was a monstrous athlete). Richard Hill was bigger than 2021 6N player of the tournament Hamish Watson. I think the average weight has certainly gone up but thats just guys chugging more protein powder and lifting weights a lot more, they arent better athletes per se.

That Lions test team never scored a point in the last 20 minutes of those games. Because they were overtrained and their energy ran out. Then the coaches had the chutzpah to shout at the players that theyre not performing well enough at the end of the matches.

Nonsense, one of the best squads the Lions ever assembled lost because the management didn't listen to the players who repeatedly told them that they were overtraining, they were knackered. If the management had listened they would have won 3 zip a belief shared by the conditioning coach Steve Black who told the management but was ignored. The idea that the Lions lost because of a newspaper article is laughable.

Interesting to see the perspective of the UK teams from an Aussie. A lot of emphasis on speeches etc pre game, wonder if it's as big a thing now. Seems almost distracting. Duncan McRae is an absolute grub, these days I think there would be a bigger penalty for what is essentially a straight up assault. I still think on balance Australia deserved to win this given it was our champion team
