A penalty could win this for the Lions…

Wow!
Well done Lions… Well deserved…
well done leeutjies. Boshoff jou doring.
And Staat gift the game to the Lions! Well done Boshoff!
unbelievable. Well done Lions, but hell, the Cheetahs played some dumb rugby. Especially Pretorius, when he came on.
And the Lions top the Super Rugby log.
Who would’ve thought?
Phweeeew!
Welcome back Lions!
I invite and accept any abuse.
Sorry Cheetahs… go back – I mentioned the silly mistakes of the Bok Le Roux… I said he could ‘roux’ dropping the ball with an open line…
Anyways no time to cry over spoilt milk…
I said the upsets will come in the first round…
@ Loosehead:
Abuse!
The Staat will rue losing their easiest match of the Super Rugby season.
@ Loosehead:
They should have played percentage rugby in the second half, but continued to play risky rugby…
The Lions just kept playing the percentages… Well my 11 Losses for the Lions looks a good bet…
Shall we move over to the Sharks / Bulls thread?
Why I hate superbru…
No excuses, the Lions were the better team.
Freestate were shit.
@ Loosehead:
Lions were poor. Cheetahs just worse.
Some shocking decisions from them.
Kak start to Superbru, put I’ll live with it.
