Marco Stupido Wentzel.
Ag nee
Kwagga did so well, terrible dropped pass
Kwagga clean through and Skosaan spills it AGAIN. Was not an easy one though.
Hope the errors don’t come back to haunt the home side.
Lions change the WHOLE front row.
I thought Marx had a good 50 minutes.
Strong with ball in hand.
Lions locks are having strong games.
Penalty advantage Lions.
