Is there enough SPF50 to play both Brown and Chessum under a hole in the ozone layer?

Hes Kinghorns cousin so I wonder if he was heading over for the last tests anyway.

Will get a game on Tuesday given they'll need to protect another second row in case McCarthy is gubbed.

McCarthy would be a big loss; him going off was part of the reason the Lions fell away imo. Chessum just a different sort of player- and in fairness ended up with 16 tackles, no misses, but wasn't asked to carry.

And, I thought, a big reason Itoje was so knackered...doing double the work. Carried a lot more in the second half.

I think I'd parachute Cummings into the 5 shirt if McCarthy is out.

Cummins would be the obvious replacement.

Who?

To be fair there a number of players now on this tour who will end up being impossible quiz questions in years to come.

Cummings gets off the line very quickly. This seemed to be what Farrell is after in defence. Would think he'd start Chessum though. Couldn't complain if this was the case.
