Off the upright, difficult bounce.. knocked by the Lions.
Scrum Saders… the small mercy is that Ruan Dreyer is on at tighthead now…. Jaco Kriel has had to leave the field as a result
Saders over, held up, 5m Saders scrum
90 @ Angostura:
Redelinghuys has happened to the Lions scrum!
Another Saders scrum penalty… against Dreyer… oh shit!
And yet another one… flok
Once the Lions are down to 13 players, they’ll go on to beat the Saders …
😀
@ grootblousmile:
But last year Redelinghuys was “invincible”
Penalty Try, Saders
Wyatt Crocket should get Saders Man of The Match, he is absolutely destroying the Lions at scrumtime!
