Hardaker & Philbin injured! Austin on the Wing!

Unbelievable. He has been a great coach in his time but I think old age as got the better of him.

Blake Austin to play on wing. What a farce. https://www.warringtonguardian.co.uk/sp ... RkjHplQdSk

Is there a winger in the squad with better wing credential than Austin?
I don't think there is...I'm going to lump on him.

Heard it all now..a HB on the wing...bet he touches the ball twice all game...

there's a thought on twitter bennett might be ing about, and despite the stated intent, blake may start at half, widdop at fb and lomax on the wing.

Whats happened to coote? why isn't he being considered whatsoever?

Why haven't alot of playera been considered at all, why only 2 Wingers and 1 centre and 6 half backs. Because Bennett couldn't give a about GB Lions at all, this is a weird build up for England combinations. Bennett should go for me and an English coach should take over.

Its a big game.....

Its a big game.....

It's ridiculous and makes a mockery of the whole thing.

its either that... or Austin has been playing on the wing in training and killing it.... So he has thought its worth a go.

Austin scores a couple of tries and he looks like a genius.

Is there a better player than Austin for wing.
I'd say not...and I bet him to earn me a few quid.

Got to say - seen virtually nothing from Widdop except for his goal kicking that justifies the word 'marquee'.
Then again virtually no-one comes out of the Lions tour to date with much credit.
