LIONS BY A MILE!
Certainly looks like the Lions will take this one…
Jed Forest beat Edinburgh Accies so are through to the final to play either home team Melrose or Edinburgh Rugby.
Sharks penalty, 8 or so metres from their own line…
@ Bullscot:
What is that?
Elton Jantjies with an attempted drop… well missed and short.
4 Minutes to go in the game, Lions scrum.
The Fat Lady is up… and she is wearing Red today….
Lions knock… game quite disjointed now.
Lions tighthead??
@ grootblousmile:
Yip. Its game over here
Willie le Roux tries to run and then chip it from near his own line… Lions get it!
Lions penalty, right in front…
TMO says Willie was tackled early and held back…
Penalty turned around, now a Sharks penalty.. hastily kicked to touch and out near halfway.
Sharks hold on, penalty… on the Sharks 10m line… they will kick for the corner… kicked dead…
Scrum option to the Sharks, they take it.
Halftime in semifinal Melrose 12/14 Edinburgh Rugby. Andries Strauss playing for Edinburgh
That just about sums up the Sharks night
Pitch invasion by an army of little Sharkstertjies… they have to vacate, of course, the game is not done yet.
Knocked by the Sharks… then by Whiteley…. game finally over!
Final Score: Cell C Sharks (6) 9 / 24 (18) Emirates Lions
OK… over to the Kings / Bulls live game thread!
Lions fully deserved the win!
Great conversion by Fowles to put Edinburgh in the lead again with a few minutes left close game 19/21
