Costly narrow win for Wales then!!
Final score – Wales 23/19 Italy. Wales will be sweating with Rhys Webb off with ankle and Leigh Halfpenny knee injuries both looked quite nastym

It was always going to be a tough RWC group for them even worse now if those two are out

@ Bullscot:
for now, flok, my battery going for tea now as well.
I almost forgot to schedule a France / Scotland live game thread… did so quickly.
Game starts at 21:00 SA Time, broadcast on SuperSport 6
EP Kings giving a good account of themselves, despite this week’s obvious difficulties
Big touchfinder by Andries Coetzee for the Lions
A bit more urgency by the Golden Lions now
Big Lions scrum, EP Kings get their scrum ball under huge pressure
EP Kings kickable penalty, Kwagga Smith gets a talking to
Good touchfinder, EP Kings will have a very attacking lineout now, 10m out
Mauled over, try by Schoeman again… very well worked!
Golden Lions 27 / 21 EP Kings
Jaco van der Walt kicks it dead.
Scrum on halfway for the Kings
Golden Lions not looking good.
Next week’s clash between the Blue Bulls vs Goden Lions is going to be a monster, where both sides will want to show massive improvement from this week’s games!
5m Attacking scrum for the EP Kings
20 Minutes to go in the game.
Guess my prediction of a 65-point win is in it’s moer… hahaha
EP Kings penalty, 5m out, side entry
EP Kings have a 6m lineout now.. they will maul!
Seperated from the maul, Lions get a turnover defensive scrum, 5m from their own line.
Nicely out of trouble for the Lions.
Plenty subs on now.
Volmink down, head was on the wrong side of the tackle… out cold it was
No way they can let Volmink continue the game… when he’s up
Lions have already used all 3 their backline replacements, so Kwagga Smith might have to go join in the backline
Kwagga indeed goes to left wing, it seems, as the stretcher cart is on to carry Volmink off
