  • Yeah Sinckler has really come on with his scrummaging in the last year, I think it is purely a temperament thing.

  • From memory wasn't he widely hailed as a great tourist last time and played a big role off the bench in all tests? Gatland clearly trusted him then... other than that one example against AWJ is his temperament really in question these days? His red for swearing at the ref was stupid but unlucky, I'm pretty sure Farrell/Biggar and many others have got away with far worse...

  • I'm sure it's set piece related. Lions scrum got roasted in 09 and it cost them the 1st test. They can't afford to give away scrum penalties especially late in the game if it's close.
