Pity you’ll be missing the Scotland / Samoa and Springboks / Italy games….
Very warm here today 28 with quite a bit of humidity. Rain forecast for tomorrow so hope it does not come today. See some clouds about. Just hope it stays dry for the Bok/Italy game later.
@ grootblousmile:
Sien jy pik alweer daar rondom my, ek het BL met 13…
2nd Half ON!
63 @ Pietman:
Ja, ons behoort close te wees soos dit nou lyk
Lions 8m out… and attacking.
Lions look a fit bunch
Reds steal the ground ball… hack it far up field, and force the Lions out to touch
Dom Shipperley replaces Luke morahan, who has had a stellar game
Surfer Dude tries to be too fancy with his passing and the Lions pilfer the loose ball
Reds Free Kick at the lineout, closing the gap was what it was for
Johnny Sexton on for Tommy Bowe
Knocked by Stevens, Reds grab it… then a Reds knock
Lions Free Kick at the scrum, quick tap and go
Good pass to and angle by Voorvel!
Then an evemntual knock, but the Lions get a penalty… and they go for goal
Rain coming down now…
Lions 19 / 7 Reds
Reds penalty after advantage, Cooper takes a quick tap
Game deteriorating now in the conditions, more and more handling errors
Mike Harris on for the Reds now too, Anthony Faingaa off subbed
Knock by Harris…
Aapman Robinson cops a head knock and goes down like a sack of suds
Robinson stretched… looked out cold
Neck brace on… never nice to see that
61 @ grootblousmile:
Yeah GBS pity will miss them but really looking forward to getting up there. A player most may not have seen much is Scotland fullback Greig Tonks who makes his debut think he may impress as think he is good, Dunbar is a good centre at Pro12 level hope he takes it up a notch to international level. Peter Horne is a good running and distributing centre who may come off bench either at centre or flyhalf, best kickers are in starting 15 so Laidlaw may shift from scrumhalf to flyhalf for Pyrgos to play scrummie ind 2nd half. Will be keen to hear what folk think about flyhalf Tom Heathcote too and also how starting hooker McArthur compares to Stevie Lawrie who is on bench, think Lawrie may more physical of the two and McArthur more mobile/quicker around the field. Enjoy rest of this one and the games this afternoon, GO SCOTLAND, GO BOKS!!! Cheers all

Tjorts Bully, travel safely!
Cross-kick by Cooper for Rod Davies, Davies just can’t gather it
Cooper almost fumbles accross his goal line, but a 22 is ruled
Lions look like they have enough to hold and repell the Reds.
19 Minutes to go
Reds certainly with enough ball, but can’t penetrate over the advantage line enough
Try Frisby… Reds
