    Mitchell showing good consistency in his selections.

    van Heerden in for Earle due to injury.

    Also interesting to see the ‘tahs quick on the uptake when things are going smoothly.

    Well, let’s hope the Lions clobber the Blues this weekend!

    I am also impressed with Mitchell’s consistency in selection.

    @ Scrumdown:
    Keyboard problems.

    I also hope so, but I’m not sure they have it in them.

    I can’t remember ever seeing the Lions / Cats / Whatever playing a good game against the Blues, and can remember a few horrible games they played against the Blues.

    One thing is certain, this Lions side has to be the fittest I’ve ever seen in JHB and they will play for the full duration of the game.

    Bulls impressed me last week in the manner that they pulled the game through.

    4@ Scrumdown:
    Wish I could give you embattled Lions supporters a glimmer of hope… it has been tough on you guys.

    Rest assured, as you’ve remarked, the Lions are better conditioned and fitter than ever before and at least they are singing from the same sheet with a coach who believes in consistency in selection.

    For 2 weekends now they have given last year’s two top teams a torrid time and if little things had gone according to plan, would have won.

    I hope this weekend for a win for them, in fact I will pick on Bru in their favour….

    We really need the Lions to win for SA rugby this week end.
    This is the most important game they have played in a long time.
    It is now or never for them and I really hope they win for the sake of Mitchell, the fans and all SA rugby supporters.

    Ha Ha not often that the Cheetahs bench looks better than the oppositions lol!

    Hope the Cheetahs can play to the same intensity, and show these mountain goats what it means to front up physically!! They have read about the term somewhere, or heard the term mentioned, but the Wpee have no idea what it means!!!

    Cheetah forwards to mentor them in this regard!!
