Shuffle up… some good rugby on the offing, I think!
Waratahs out on the field.
Ross Cronjé out 1st for the Lions for his 50th Super Rugby game, followed by the rest of the Lions led out by Warren Whiteley…
Game ON!
Kick-Off by the Lions!
you ignoring me?
Lions very kickable penalty, on the 10m line, 15m from touch.
Elton Jantjies kicks to the corner for the attacking lineout…. 10m out
5 @ Tassies:
Who, me???
Neverrrr!
Another Lions penalty, popped out 5m out!
Try Warren Whiteley, Lions!
Lions 7 / 0 Waratahs
Try Rob Horne, Tahs!
Lions 7 / 7 Waratahs
Tip tackle by the Waratahs… on Ackermann.
Yellow card to No 14, Reece Robinson!
Forward pass by Andries Coetzee to Mapoe…
TMO asked to look at another Tahs tackle…
Nothing undue in the tackle… Tahs scrum for the forward pass.
Nice intensity by the Lions, spoilt by small errors in the last bits of execution…
Lions penalty, not supporting body weight in the ruck
Try Ruan Ackermann, Lions!
@ grootblousmile:
Howzit GB. Good to see you ‘behind the mike’ again. Geez, I don’t ever think I’ll get used to Elton’s haircut. If I saw him strolling down Military Road Retreat, I’d probably reach for the doorlock button.
Lions 14 / 7 Waratahs
20 @ Tassies:
Good to see you here too Tasse!
Aside from a bit of nailbiting, coach Ackerman always looks comparatively calm during a game.
Tahs penalty right in front… not rolling… tap… try Michael Hooper!
damn. Try Tahs. Sloppy Lions. Looking to be a high scoring game.
Lions 14 / 14 Waratahs
thought I slip a little sav blank into a stemmed glass GB. What say you. sort of in celebration of that try right there.
Try Rohan Janse van Rensburg, Lions!
