Episode 40 - Lions Land in Dublin: Argentina Spoil the Party, Selection Questions, & Faz Fallout

Dublin was a sea of red and the lads are back dissecting the start to the 2025 Lions Tour as Argentina shock the tourists in Dublin, the Lions’ first tour-opening loss since 1971. Jim, Goodey and special guest Bernard Jackman break down where it went wrong despite dominant stats, from lineout woes and tippy-tappy rugby to Farrell’s punchy post-match comments. There’s chat on subs, back-row balance issues, and whether we’ll see Old Testament Faz emerge this week. Plus, big praise for Argentina, chaos in the England v France B-team clash, and the debut of “Keyboard Captains” as we read out some of the week’s fan comments.
