Adam Jones has started it already, in his blog for the BBC he says he has been rooming with Mako V. He apparently snores like a donkey keeping AJ awake.

What other pre-match excuses do you think will come out?

The Wallabies excuses.

"We were simply outplayed by the better team in all 3 Tests. We didn't see that coming, unfortunately. We intend to do our homework better next time and make amends in 2025"

"We didn't think Dan would tackle everything and everyone that moved. Now we know why he was selected."

"Apparently, there was a problem with Chris Pollock's SWIFT Code in the days leading up to the Brisbane Test... and it all went downhill from there"

"We were playing really well... up by 17 points at one stage early in the 2nd half... but the 'Lions... Lions...Lions' chant really put us off our game and they really did finish with a flurry, didn't they?"

"I don't think we can blame the ref when Tipuric had his foot in touch just before he offloaded to Bowe to put the ball down for the winning score... but the play before that when Best threw the ball in at the lineout... we're going to make an official complaint to the IRU about that one. His toe was definitely over the line there!"

From Gats on losing three straight
"it may have been a mistake to let Justin play out of position but I saw him kick a ball once, and I stand by playing 15)Leigh Halfpenny, 14)Alex Cuthbert, 13)Jonathan Davis, 12)Jamie Roberts, 11)George North, 10)Justin Tiupric, 9)Mike Phillips, 1)Gethin Jenkin, 2)Richard Hibberd, 3)Adam Jones, 4)Ian Evans, 5)Alun Wyn Jones, 6)Dan Lydiate, 7)Sam Warburton, 8)Toby Faletau for all three tests, it gave the team a chance to gel!"

This'll actually be the Lions excuse after Lydiate fails to understand the concept of NOT tackling English, Irish and Scottish players and makes Sexton cry in the Second Test after he is sacked by his own 6 for the 20th time.
