First Tim, then the England cricket team, then the Lions. Bugger.<br />

Right. Henman’s loss should be put in perspective. He has actually OVER-achieved at Wimbledon, reaching the second week every year since 1995. He was due a second-round loss sometime – this is not the end of his career. Think how many shock early exits Agassi had in his time, even Sampras now and then. This happens.<br />
<br />
Cricket – well, it’s still early days, but I don’t see the Aussies losing too many more matches. They look like a team improving all the time. They really gave England a good working over in the last match. It will be interesting to see where we go from here.<br />
<br />
For the Lions, the future is pretty bleak. Stuffed 21-3, they have a week to sort out almost every aspect of their game. Line out, scrum, backs. Anything else? Oh, flyout a few replacements for BO’D and Hill. This is a disaster. <br />

Sir Clive Woowoo really needs to change the selection policy and go for form rather than reputation, and pick anyone Welsh. Get Henson in there, drop Robinson, get Sheridan on the bench, call up Martin Johnson – oh, not the last one. But do something different. Losing can also become a habit.
