Thanks
Solid scrum WP, Lions scrum is powerful, so if they can stand up against them today it should bode well
Lions counter after a WP mistake, and Kolbe marks a poor kick
Kolbe doesn’t find touch, and Lions on attack, but Siya again wins the turn over
WP line out just in the Lions half, rumble forward but loses the ball
Kolbe stays down after being taken out in the air, accidental contact though
Kolisi looking menacing.
Fair call by Joubert

Very much
Ja Joubert, daai foutjie van jou teen die Saders in super15 finaal kos jou nou erg, nou word jy gedemote om ‘n CB game te blaas tussen PW en Leeus.
😐
WP scrum where Kolbe got injured

Demote is as hulle hom n Bul game gee 😉
Lions have the ball in their half but can’t make headway
Lions opt to kick, ball in hand they put the phases together, but WP defense holds out
Lions have a#10 problem, this Cronje laaitie not up to it, clearly…
WP break out with Senatla who passes to de Jongh, move comes to nothing, but it shows WP is dangerous on the counter, even from far out
Lions miss touch with a penalty, WP kick directly out and Lions gain the advantage.
Penalty won in front of the posts, Lions could get on the board now
WP14/3 Lions
Silly penalty given away by Cilliers, Kolbe taking some serious hits so far
Lions hard on attack again, at the WP tryline, all because Pat is a poephol
Lions setting up phase after phase
19 phases and Lions kick the ball away
Rugby het te voorspeelbaar geword, elke jaar dieselfde
– NZ het een gemiddelde game, en almal dink hulle tyd is verby, en dan gebeur vanoggend, hul gaan weer alles wen.
– Ludeke wat nou vir ‘n paar jare met dieselfde spelers en dieselfde wedstrydplan dieselfde resultate kry
– Sharks wat die hele super15 goed lyk en dan choke wanneer dit saak maak
– PW wat in ‘n afgewaterde CB kompetisie soos kampioene speel, maar choke wanneer dit saak maak.
En ons kyk elke jaar daarna, hehe.
They have a 5m scrum again to attack from
Penalty to the Lions, not straight scrumming from WP
Lions set up the line out and attack short side, great defense though, WP line out
Daardie rondte deur PW gewen, goeie verdediging.
Cat again misses touch and Lions on the attack again
Really poor tactics from WP not to kick out
Lions eventually get the try, well deserved.
