Penalty. Jantjies for POLES.
OVER. 11/14 Canes
Eishhh, forward pass by Deon van Rensburg to Taute…
Canes now attacking relentlessly…
The modern game is ALL about possession
These uncontested scrums are taking the game away from the Leewens.
Penalty to the Canes… Doppies slowed it down and did not roll away in the tackle
Canes for poles. What was the penalty for? Anyone see?

Good kick. 11/17 Canes.
Lions need to get into this game quickly.

Lions don’t look like they are going to take this match. Something is going to have to change drastically if they are going to win.
Lions trying to lose this one ?
Come on Lions… patience now!

That’s better!
Got it. FFS Welsh is a one eyed TW@T.

Conversion good.

Lions need a bit of help from the altitude, and their superior fitness now.
Try by Coles for the Canes.

Faaark me McGyver, jaag Josh kuk aan, weer eens geisoleerd en geen voorspeler naby nie….
Hurricanes 22 / 18 Lions
Butch on.
Try Cory Jane….
I hang my head in shame!
