Franco Mostert cops a Yellow for a cynical offside infringement… completely correct decision!

Lions playing real doff rugby…

grootblousmile on 20 March 2015 at 10:47 am

Try Mitch Inman, Rebels

Vark.

Go for a p1ss, come back and the Lions are a player, a penalty AND a try down.

grootblousmile on 20 March 2015 at 10:48 am

Rebels 8 / 0 Lions

Mike Harris missed the pop-over conversion

Scrumdown on 20 March 2015 at 10:49 am

FFS. Another miss from in front.

I am now really looking for a Paki bookmaker in the crowd.

Scrumdown on 20 March 2015 at 10:52 am

Aussies 67/3 after 13 overs.

grootblousmile on 20 March 2015 at 10:53 am

Try Rebels again… fullback, Placid, on debut scores on the right wing.
17

Scrumdown on 20 March 2015 at 10:53 am

OK. Need to go to a meeting.

Just as the Lions go another 5 points behind.

I see a hiding coming and JA’s reputation going further south than Dunedin.

I see a long weekend for SA rugby…

Lions to lose, Cheetahs to lose, Sharks to lose and only possibly a win for the Bulls

No try, lost forward ruled by Stirzaker
23

grootblousmile on 20 March 2015 at 11:04 am

I think the Rebels are hard done by… should have been a 75m try…
24

grootblousmile on 20 March 2015 at 11:05 am

Lions scrum penalty, on their own 5… a relieving one
25

grootblousmile on 20 March 2015 at 11:06 am

Only 1 team playing and it ain’t the Lions!

Lions get another penalty, in on the side

grootblousmile on 20 March 2015 at 11:08 am

Mostert dives over the ball and is pinged

grootblousmile on 20 March 2015 at 11:08 am

Rebels get within 5m again
