Maybe a draw would be best for the Lions?
52

10 Minutes to go, only 3 points in it…
53

grootblousmile on 16 July 2016 at 11:12 am

The score as is would be best for the Lions…
54

grootblousmile on 16 July 2016 at 11:14 am

Try Landers??

No try, was lost forward just before the line?

Or is it a try?
55

grootblousmile on 16 July 2016 at 11:15 am

Could be a try to Sopoaga…
56

grootblousmile on 16 July 2016 at 11:16 am

No knock is ruled… try Landers, Sopoaga!!
