Wow, Israel Folau… try!
WOW!
What a try!
Mooiste driee in hierdie toets!
116 @ grootblousmile:I have the Sky commentators here on VIPbox, so much better than the Aussie mob. I rate the Aussie and SA commentators as the worst in the world!
Great try by Aus. Good come back.
Genia, the undisputed king of flyhalfs and Israel scores a brilliant try!
Man, oh man… the league convert steps and finishes…
Correct decision. Would have been a travesity if that had been ruled forward.
122 @ Loosehead:
Hellloooooooooooo you fat old Prop!
Skitterende drie deur Folio.
Lions 13 / 12 Wallabies
O’Bieber nou 7 punte gemis.
124: wat is die link ?
Brilliant rugby. I am enjoying this one!
Justin flops again. Wobblies are not simply going to lie down and get eaten by the Lions. The Boks wouldn’t stand a chance against either of these teams 🙁
134 @ The_Young_Turk:Its an insult to both these two teams to mention the Springboks in the same sentence at the moment!
Another bad knock
Berrick Barnes with his trademark Concussion… looks farked again.
He does have a glass jaw, does’nt he!
North skryf die South al weer af.
128 @ grootblousmile: Fat? Me?
Barnes will be stretchered off… and Kurtley Beale will take the field
135: Springbokke, BIL Lions, Aussies.
139 @ Loosehead:
OK, not fat… obese… hehehe
Just joking!
Lions very close…. penalty Lions, 5m out.
For off the feet
Shot at goal it will be.
Lions attack very well, the ball is moved well, the man drawn well…
Oh dear, oh dear. Lions to take it now please!
Good game so far.
Missed by Halfpenny
Lemoenetyd
142 @ grootblousmile: Dik swak. I am chubby & cuddley.
I think Berrick Barnes must take up another sport, how many concussions has he had now in the last 3 years?
148 @ Loosehead:
Bwahahaha
Don’t worry, your dogs love you anyway….
