They kick to the corner… for the attacking lineout.
Itoje steals the vital lineout!
Unfortunately(and I say that with genuine sentiment) I smell a trashing in this first Test. These bloody AB’s look ominously dangerous as the game progresses through the final 20. Lions are only going to tire further.
Gotta get going, enjoy the rugby all. Was good to ‘see’ so many pals here today.
Morning all!
Go ABs!!!
Nathan Harris on for Cody Taylor, for the All Blacks
Kiwis sound Turbo-Charged yet again!
13 Minutes to go in the match.
@ Bullscot: Hello Goodbye
@ Blue Bird:
Hi and bye Blue Bird all the best.
154 @ Bullscot:
Cheers Bully!
155 @ BrumbiesBoy:
Helloooo Perdjie!
Sam Whitelock steals a lineout from the Lions!!
Tryyyyyyy Rieko Ioane, All Blacks… his 2nd of the day!
All Blacks 30 / 8 B & I Lions
I can hear the New Zealand sparkling wine corks popping from down here in Cape Town. Thousands of them. And I don’t think it’s premature either. That’s it Leeutjies.
@ Bullscot:
cheers BS. You go well mate.
Now for the elephant in the room: can the ‘new’ Springboks give this AB team a run for their money? Or can we expect more of the same?
Just asking
Next question.
Do you think Gatland will make wholesale changes to his second Test side?
Or is that a stupid question?
Gone all quiet on here. Guys all headed off to PnP already?
Thats the tour. Will be 3-0 thrashing/series victory for ABs. Lions just couldn’t convert their changes; and will not come back in the series from this.
1 Minute to go in the match.
Lions penalty… as the hooter goes…
One last attacking lineout for the Lions!
Lions close… tryyyy Reece Webb, Lions!
Oooooo
All over.

That was just excellent rugby… the type of game we rugby nutters live for!!
168: as die BIL so sukkel, kon die AB net vir 50 minute vashou, dan behoort ons hul vir so 30 minute te kan keer, daarna is dit pakslae tyd in NZ. In SA sal ons hulle tot halftyd kan vashou.
See you guys later for the Bokke / France test…
@ Bullscot:
@ grootblousmile:
That’s a great win by the Fijians.
Scotland has been in good form of late.
