Strange…

Hello Cosa!
Lions penalty, on about the Kings 10m line, in on the side of the maul
Hehe, hierdie game is proewe vir wie gaan kontrakte kry by die Bulle, die span wat verloor wat nie super 15 gaan speel volgende jaar nie.
As Kings verloor, Maku, Bulbring, Engelbrecht en Murray na Loftus. Nie te mal oor die laaste speler nie, maar dalk is hy deel van die pakket ?
As Leeus verloor, sal Callie, Franco, Kriel, Jantjes, Stokkies mooi inpas by die Bulle.
Kings 6 / 3 Lions
Lions penalty on their own 10m line, holding onto the ball on the ground
Looks like the Lions eventually woke up.
A lot of niggle off the ball.
Lions penalty, not too far from the Kings line… maul infringement, in on the side
Lions kick for touch… 5m lineout
Lions try?
TMO
Minnie it was… was it a double movement? Is there a grounding?
Try awarded…
Kings must be close to a yellow card!
Surely a try?
Yes!!!!!!!!!!!!
Trie!
Lions 8 / 6 Kings

Close game… hard and fast
Going to be a closer game than the Lions want. IMO the Kings seemed to “want it” more in the first 20, with the Lions only getting in to the match in the second 20.
49 @ Scrumdown:
Yip, pretty much my view too
Only 6 points between staying in Super Rugby and falling out….
2nd Half ON!
Massive Lions scrum, turnover scrum for the Lions
die beste loskop in sa is nie in die bok span nie…..
Great Lions scrum turns the ball over.
Lions scrum penalty… on the Kings 10m line, no binding by Ferreira
die scalk ou is amper so goed soos dean
Lions 11 / 9 Kings
Lions over the line…
TMO
Held up, 5m Lions scrum
