Have Your Say on the Scrum V Message boards

If you want to discuss specific Lions issues with fellow fans, please visit our dedicated message boards.

Ed: We love hearing from all of you - but we'd really like to hear more about your experiences of following the tour - either in the UK or in New Zealand. So try to keep the match chat for the Scrum V message boards. But just this once, here are a few predictions ahead of the Otago game.

Adam Hodgson, Leeds The Lions simply need to step up attacking ambition and aggression; the recent practice-ground fracas has shown that the aggression side is already being dealt with. By the first Test Saturday we will see a totally different 15 Lions that will do Britain and Ireland proud.

Bob Addison, Tring Wilkinson is missing far too many tackles and would be targetted by the All Blacks if selected. My choice would be Charlie Hodgson. He would bring the best out of Henson who would create the space for O'Driscoll, who seems off the pace at the moment.

Owain 'Dafydd' James, Pontypool, Wales The Lions will triumph. Stephen Jones and Dwayne Peel Will cause havoc with the Wales captain Gareth Thomas running riot. Gethin Jenkins, Gavin Henson and Martyn Williams are the other dead certs for the Test side.

1646 BST: SOME PLEAS FROM FELLOW FANS:
Robbo, Houston, USA Anyone out there know if the Lions get TV coverage in Mexico, specially Cancun? Real mess up in the Honeymoon arrangements, as I'm there for the first two Tests....
Millsy, Blackpool Does anyone know somewhere where I can watch the 2nd Test in the Lake District, preferably in/around Windemere/Bowness because I'm camping. If not, anyone fancy having a couple of lads over for breakfast and the match - I'Il provide the bacon and eggs!?!

Charlotte Church was in grumpy mood when asked whether she thought her beau, Welshman Gavin Henson, played well against Wellington on her way to a flight from Wellington to Sydney. Church indicated, with monosyllabic answers, that she enjoyed the game, thought Henson played well, was here for three days, enjoyed New Zealand, was sick of the media and had nothing interesting to say.

Don't listen to New Zealand media giving out about the Lions being under lock and key and hidden away from the public.They've been out and about over the last few days with no security in sight

1332 BST: Zinzan Brooke, BBC Sport columnist
The Lions have played enough rugby during the season so their first team, whatever it is, should be able to slot together, even if guys like Richard Hill and Jonny Wilkinson look a bit short of games. It looks like Sir Clive Woodward has pretty much made his decisions now. That may put the jitters up the All Blacks selectors, who I'm sure would have liked to see the likely Test team once more.

1208 BST: Tom, New Zealand, via email
We take pride in our rugby down here on the southern tip of the world and I've watched some wonderful Lions teams come here over the years. This lot are not a patch on them.

Woodward is an abrasive character and it seems to be rubbing off on his team off the pitch. On it they're a toothless bunch of pussycats and we're going to maul their second-rate offering - for Woodward, the "House of Pain" [the nickname for the ground where Saturday's game will be played] will be just that.

This match will destroy any hope the Lions have of winning the series and I fear Woodward's business-like attitude could destroy the Lions as well. I'll be toasting a famous win this time tomorrow - I just hope it's not the last time they come here.

Despite numerous letters and e-mails to the NZRFU, Graham Henry has yet to respond to our request to meet him for a couple of pints during our three-week tour of New Zealand. This from a man who accepted both hospitality and beer from us when he visited our club in the barren rugby wastelands of north Wales some four years ago. How soon they forget.

It is as if a security cage has gone up around the entity that is the All Blacks. What a way to treat guests arriving in a distant country. Whatever happened to reciprocity? A PR disaster - that's what I would call it. We will not be discouraged, however, and will continue in our efforts to set up a meeting with the "Great Redeemer", if only to offer our sincere condolences on a second tour loss for him involving the Lions.

Our other plans are now gaining momentum with the arrival of flight tickets and tickets to the second Test. Legs have been waxed in anticipation of bungy jumps, and a large sign has been delivered to attach to the rear of the campervan, emblazoned with the incredibly witty slogan: "Taffs In Transit, South". I'm sure the New Zealand traffic police will be beside themselves with amusement at our originality.

And to the Undercover Kiwi, looking forward to meeting you sometime after 23 June, mate. The first round is on you!

The Scottish players and fans will be feeling at home in Dunedin. It's certainly cold enough for us Scots. And for the players it's their last chance to stake a claim for a Test place.

1031 BST: Hayden Meikle writing in the Otago Daily Times
There is a clear second-string look about the Lions team to play Otago. Fans hoping for a glimpse of star backs Jonny Wilkinson and Brian O'Driscoll or young Welsh prop Gethin Jenkins will be disappointed with the team named by Sir Clive Woodward. And the Otago Rugby Football Union can possibly kiss a few hundred ticket sales goodbye.

0955 BST: David, Spain, via email
If things don't work out in the first Test, there won't be time to try different things before the rest. I fear the Lions will lose the first two Tests, finally try something different (maybe dropping Brian O'Driscoll for Tom Shanklin, or move the captain to inside centre with Shanklin outside him, or paying Michael Owen at lock), win the third Test and we'll spend another four years moaning about another missed opportunity.

0935 BST: BBC Sport columnist Martin Bayfield
One player I am surprised we haven't seen more of is Tom Shanklin. Everyone raves about Gavin Henson but he didn't score a try in the Six Nations and hasn't on tour, whereas Shanklin seems to score whenever he plays. He is one of several Welsh players in good form, who have carried it through from the Six Nations. Gethin Jenkins and Dwayne Peel have been excellent and Gareth Thomas looked good on Wednesday, even if he's another I'd like to see again before the Tests.

0852 BST: Gordon Bulloch, Radio Five Live
There are a lot of players out here so you have to bide your time for your opportunity. Obviously mine has come now and I need to stake a claim. A Saturday game a week before the first Test is a golden opportunity.

There's also been a lot of talk this week about a bust-up between me and John Hayes in training, and lots of people have been calling from home to ask all about it. But there was absolutely no bust-up. It was a completely open training session and it was just a clash in a rucking session. It amazes me but I guess the papers have nothing to write about so they just make things up!

0801 BST: Chris Hewett writing in the New Zealand Herald:
The good folk of Otago, well used to beating the Lions after celebrating five wins in their past eight fixtures with the tourists, have generated some negative vibes. Most of them came from the provincial coach, Wayne Graham, who lambasted Woodward and company for their general approach to this trip and threw a few insults at the players for good measure.

0650 BST: Nigel Cass, New Zealand Rugby Union project manager for the Lions tour:
New Zealand's rugby grounds are renowned for belting out the likes of Welsh crooner Tom Jones and Scottish duo the Proclaimers over their sound system at games. But to make sure the Lions don't get any boost whatsoever, all British music has been banned for Saturday's game, with only New Zealand groups coming to the fore.

As a Pom living in NZ for several years now I have had to take some stick and am forever reminded about us "whinging poms". I have to say a new breed has emerged...the "whinging Kiwi". I am amazed at the view many Kiwis have about the Lions tour. Once again the Kiwi media circus springs into action as Otago coach Wayne Graham fired a series of verbal volleys before Saturday's match at Carisbrook by accusing the British and Irish Lions of cheating in the scrums and at the breakdown. All this only a day after the Lions being slated for cancelling a few engagements. I agree it is a shame that the kids won't get to see the players, but I have to say, as a touring team the demands on their time must be huge.

0224 BST: Undercover Kiwi
It was interesting to see Gordon Bulloch claim the 13 stitches he received at a training session was the result of a rucking, but sources report the incident was much more than that. Bulloch and John Hayes evidently had a "scuffle" which is a bit different to rucking. Perhaps this is why the Lions have cancelled live scrummaging sessions for the rest of the tour!

0016 BST: Alan, Swansea, via email
I am travelling out on Monday with the feeling that we are in with a real chance of Test victory. People must be patient as on all tours things will improve with more game time. My only concern is the centre partnership, perhaps they should try Tom Shanklin as he is a better centre than some of the others.
