Gooooooooooo Lions, moer die Kings!
Kings out on the pitch
Lions also coming onto the pitch…
I think the Lions will rip the Kings a new oriface today in front of their home crowd!
Game ON!
Early Lions penalty… on their own 22
Lions look amped!
Kings penalty, deep in their half
Kings hard on attack, they have a 5m lineout
Kings knock in the lineout
Game played at great pace
Kings penalty and Scott van Breda goes for goal.
Kings 3 / 0 Lions
Kings penalty again.. again kickable
Kings 6 / 0 Lions
Kings penalty on their own 22… and it looks like the Kings appreciate the importance of this game a bit more than the Lions at the moment
This time a Lions defensive penalty… ding dong, ping pong
Baulking by the Lions hooker… Free Kick Kings
Easy penalty kick for the Kings…
Missed by Van Breda
Ellis Park is far from full, people… not nearly a sell out. They lied to us!
Lions penalty, high tackle.. is this a shot at goal?
Missed left… drifted left
Lions penalty nearly on their own 10m line… kick for touch
Vlok. Between laptop problems and a uber kak signal I am now down to the flipping phone.
Middag almal.
Lyk of Kings opgedaag het en nie sommer net gaan omval en dood speel nie, Leeus sal moet wakker word.
Janjies forward pass, Kings get the turnover ball
Lions 5m lineout… good pressure

Helloooooooooooooo!
Kings get a 5m scrum, time to clear their lines perhaps
GBS I can tell you there were no tickets available for sale on Thursday when I was here.
