Looking forward to this game!
Gooooooo Lions!
Goooooooooo Rugby!!!
I would like to wish the very best of luck to both sets of loyal supporters who populate this site; your respective teams have rewarded your faith in them but unfortunately there can only be one winner.
To Cane & Hurricane (from Voldy..wherever he is) perhaps your time has come…
To all the Lions supporters; perhaps yours has too…but only time will tell.
GOOD LUCK to you all.

Extremely wet and freezing cold here in Nu Zolland. It’s snowing down south and in all the high spots in the north island. Will be hard for lions to play their usual flowing game.
Lions have lot of support in NZ. Kiwi’s will support the Canes but will cheer the Lions on if they play their usual entertaining rugby.
What’s the story with Ruan Dreyer. He injured his hand a while back. Is he still injured or can’t he find his way back into the team?
@ McLook:
Apparently still injured.
Nerves building.
Morning all.
A truly dismal evening here in Wellington,
4 degrees, with a 39 kph South Westerly wind. And wet.
I’m still picking an entertaining spectacle just the same.
And whatever the result , lets remember it’s just a game of Rugby.
Yeah Right. 😕
@ Lion4ever:
This has the potential to be one great game Lionman.
Good luck (but not too much).
cane.
Catch you all later.
@ cane:
Thanks Cane. May the best team (Lion’s) win. But yes, expecting a cracker, test like rugger.
Morning all.
Good luck to both teams, but GOOOOOOOOOO Lions.
Is it too early for a drink . . . .
Predicting a blowout. Canes running away with the game. Lions scoring a few tries at the end to save face. Hope I’m wrong.
Hellllooooooooooo!
All of you ready for the game??
Lions players out on the field!
Hurricanes also now out on the field, led by a fit-again Dane Coles!
Game N!
Kick-Off by the Lions!
Kick-off error by Jantjies, kicked it into the goal area, dotted dead… scrum back on the middle spot!
Canes pass out to touch…
Good 1st scrum by lions.1st line out not so good.
Knock by Malcolm Marx, running it up in midfield.
Challenging kick for Jantjies.
Rushed it.
But we have a Lions penalty to goal…. between Halfway and the 10m line… ball falls over 1st time…
Short…
Hi all. Enjoy the game.
Brilliant line kick Barrett
Great touchfinder by Beauden Barrett… well into the Lions 22.
Lineout ball stolen by the Canes…
Good Lions defence…
Try Cory Jane, Canes, after a great cross-kick by Barrett!
