    What nationality is George North?

    They're all Welsh Beds
    Would explain why "we" are wearing red shirts.

    Sensible decision to go for the pen, but the way we took them in that first scrum, I'd have gone for the big push

    Agreed. Sensible captaincy - cant have been easy to turn down the opportunity to go for the throat there, but points n the board is the most important thing.

    Poor defence! Too slow and ponderous.

    He took it brilliantly Leroy, I just think he should have had more of a challenge in front of him.

    I don't pretend to be a great rugby fan, but like to watch the "big" games/events, as I do with golf, tennis etc.

    I always say that if rugby was more free flowing & open I would enjoy it a lot more, but it rarely happens in the big games that I watch. Once every few years.

    However, this is one of them games. Tremendous stuff !

    Rugby is brutal. Footballers are such wimps.

    Wouldn't say it was brutal, but footballers are definitely wimps!

    Should be a yellow card there!! Getting hacked off with Pollock!

    He's a Kiwi - that passes for a fair tackle in NZ.

    LOL - that North try was awesome. Berrick Barnes almost had to buy a ticket to get back in.

    Took the words out of my mouth, CE !

    I see that the Scottish Independence movement is gathering pace - they've already withdrawn their players from the Lions team!

    What the hell does it matter whether they are Welsh, Scottish. They are the British and Irish Lions. Get behind them.

    Doubt it really matters what is written on a Charlton message board - don't suppose they will hear us!

    That's why i dont particularly like Rugby Union. I can never understand why the penalties are given and I'm sure I'm not alone. It's a good job they cant kick.
