Awarded.

Jantjies misses a difficult conversion.

3 / 5 Lions
11

Scrumdown on 27 March 2015 at 11:17 am

Lions butcher it in mid-field.
12

Scrumdown on 27 March 2015 at 11:20 am

Lions defensive scrum in their own 22 leads to a Lions penalty.

Messy scrum. Could have gone either way.
13

Scrumdown on 27 March 2015 at 11:23 am

Messy game with too many errors thus far.
14

Scrumdown on 27 March 2015 at 11:30 am

Combrink almost intercepts, but knocks it on.

Reds scrum 5m from far side on Lions 10m line.
15

Scrumdown on 27 March 2015 at 11:32 am

Reds win the Lions line out.
16

Scrumdown on 27 March 2015 at 11:33 am

Reds penalty in front.

Jesus this game is like passing a kidney stone.

Scrumdown on 27 March 2015 at 11:35 am

Cooper misses the sitter.

Scrumdown on 27 March 2015 at 11:41 am

Lions line out is k@k.
20

Scrumdown on 27 March 2015 at 11:42 am

Lions seem to go from the sublime to the ridiculous, twice in the same movement.
21

Scrumdown on 27 March 2015 at 11:44 am

Lions win a kickable penalty on the stroke of half time.
22

Scrumdown on 27 March 2015 at 11:45 am

Over.

3 / 8 Lions at half time.
23

Scrumdown on 27 March 2015 at 11:57 am

Going to be another close one methinks.
25

Scrumdown on 27 March 2015 at 12:08 pm

Trrrryyyyy. Tecklenburg.
26

Scrumdown on 27 March 2015 at 12:09 pm

jantjies adds the extras.
27

Scrumdown on 27 March 2015 at 12:10 pm

Try came from a p1ss poor Red line out.

But Reds now on the Lions line.
28

Scrumdown on 27 March 2015 at 12:10 pm

Combrink cops a yellow.
29

Scrumdown on 27 March 2015 at 12:11 pm

Looks like a Reds try. TMO.

Looked on the line live.

Scrumdown on 27 March 2015 at 12:11 pm
