Lions 5m lineout…. come Lions, here’s your chance!
The one thing that might count against the Lions is that they will go hell for leather to get the 4th try, and that might give the Landers the chance to counter
13 Minutes to go in the game
@ Pietman:
116
Yep, I saw that too
Same Sharks’ forward who drilled the Canes today (but lost for that Pollock fella)
huuuuuuuuuuuuuuge knocn on by jantjies
Landers steal the Lions lineout… maybe that was a bit of blind justice for a Lions knock
Landers steal yet another Lions lineout!
Heeeehaaaa!
Lions easy penalty… go for goal… take the lead, Lions!!
pretty ridiculous, from an attacking scrum in the lions 22, to an attacking lineout for the lineouts because the ref missed a knock… really dont want to hear lions supporters kak and moan about a forward pass anymore
Jaco Kriel tekkel hulle fktup….!
Lions 25 / 23 Highlanders
OK, sanity restored… let’s see what happens from here
@ MacroBull:
Wassie n knokkie, Jantjies? Kyk weer…
8 Minutes to go… Lions 22m drop in
@ Pietman:
hulle het dit 2 keer gewys, en vir my het die bal vorentoe gegaan
LEEEEEUWENS!!!!
Lions turnover scrum, maul held up, then it went to ground… correct call
