The ref thing is interesting and I think it almost works on a national rather than Lions basis. As an Englishman I'd slightly watch out for Joubert in the second test, but thank god there's no Bryce Lawrence or Alain Rolland, I guess Irish fans would be delighted Barnes isn't there - not sure who the Welsh fear most?
All in all it doesn't look bad ref wise
Anyway, what's the score gonna be
I'm going Australia 17 - 24 Lions
By the way from Wikipedia, they named him well ....
Attacks on humans[edit]ISAF statistics records forty-two shortfin attacks on humans between 1980 and 2010, three of which were fatal, along with twenty boat attacks.[26] The MAKO is regularly blamed for attacks on humans and, due to its speed, power and size, it is certainly capable of injuring and killing people. However, this species will not generally attack humans and do not seem to treat them as prey. Most modern attacks involving mako sharks are considered to have been provoked due to harassment or the shark being caught on a fishing line.[27] Sharks can be attracted to spear fishermen carrying a stuck fish, and may slap them with cavitation bubbles from a swift tail flick. Divers who have encountered shortfin makos note that, prior to an attack, they will swim in a figure eight pattern and approach with mouths open.[27]
