Net een game te ver
🙁
Final Score: British & Irish Lions 41 / 16 Australia
25-point margin… it is a massive win!
dink nie daar is n span wat die leeus sou klop vandag nie puik puik puik….
Halfpenny and North were two important players for the Lions…
1st Lions Series win in 16 Years…. wow
nou vir die hoof hoof game
Halfpenny was sublime, Lions front rowers were massive… it all started at the scrums
248 @ smallies:
Ja, hy’s vanaand 19:15
@ nortierd:
Shame mate, It’s tough! But at least you will have been there, very very few, if any, of us will ever experience that.
Farkit, I was just pipped into 2nd on Bru by Tripples…. by 0.25!
Damn!
230 @ KWAGGA ROBERTSE:
Brilliant just brilliant. Best atmosphere is a BIL game.
I went to two here one at KP and and Ellis Park. BIL supporters are what makes this tourney so damn marvellous.
252 @ grootblousmile:
hehehehe. Good on Tripples… 🙂
@ grootblousmile:
nee man geen game met die tjarks in kan n hoof game wees nie
224 @ Old Griquas 14 in Sydney:
OldG, I missed last weeks game, was away to the Berg. Still enjoyed watching the first game and this one. Never mind the thrashing your team will come right. The atmosphere there was brilliant in the stadium. We have to wait another 8 years for the BIL to come back here. Seems so long, wish they toured every 3 years.

Yep, went from 1 to 242 globally in one fell swoop
It was unfamiliar territory for me, usually you just make the picks and don’t worry too much, but these last 2 weeks have been flippen difficult to decide
But, last hurdle made me fall flat on my mouth
😀
The next game is in 40 minutes.. time for me to put some shoes on (already have my Bulls jersey and jacket on)… also need to do 1 or 2 quick EFT Payments… see you in about 30 minutes.
Once again, the better team won this series and their fans are fantastic. Travel well Lions and we see you again in 12 years time with a next generation Wallabies.
26 @ Old Griquas 14 in Sydney:
OldG, Do you think that will be the end of Deans now? Also read that it could be Jake to take over the Wallabies. He has done so well with the Brumbies in such a short time. Wish Jake could have come to coach my Sharks. Pity the Sharks let Plum go as I still think he offered my team a lot more. Also read on another site that Sharks might get Deans. Now that could just be a rumour. I think that is his level Super Rugby. Always thought Deans would be great at coaching a international side, however, he has not been great for Oz. Jake will make your Wallabies winners that is for sure. Great great coach at International level and at Super Rugby as we have seen. Would hate the Boks to lose to Wallabies if Jake was coaching them…hahaha.
257 @ nortierd:
Bad luck Nortie.
259 @ Old Griquas 14 in Sydney:
Such a long time to wait to see them in ones country again. Really do hope that SAZNAR think out the box here and every 4 years we send a SANZAR team to the UK to play a Baa Baa side made up only of BIL there. Then like we see them every 2 years….hahaha.
Really can’t wait to see them here again. Have to wait 8 years though. Next BIL tour is to NZ.
258 @ grootblousmile:
Thought you were going in black and white today?

Long time to wait.
Jeez you were close. Ag, it goes like that though. Play in our RC pool. Gbs will send you the pool code in the mail. Get our kiwi mate to join as well. When I see him on keo will tell him. We have a really nice crowd here on RT.
@ Puma:
Looking forward to it
I posted some pool codes on the hurricane thread if you want to apply there
Started two pools earlier for the CC and RC
