Hello Puma great to see you here
Penalty will stand, it seems…. no, the penalty is cancelled!
All Blacks scrum!
It will certainly be very useful to the Lions concept if at the very least it was a drawn series. ..
Phweeeeew!

Drop kick territory?
Lions come away with the ball… then a knock…
Seconds to go….
All Blacks scrum, just outside drop goal territory one feels!
Howzit to both hope you both well. What a game so far.
All Blacks on the 22….
Out, 3m from the line…
The game and the series drawn!!
Wow… a drawn series!!
A very strange result, or is it… Stupid All Black decisions cost them the win. No doubt this will be portrayed as a Lions win and Gatland will be the hero in spite of it being the All Blacks throwing away the win
Cheers all

Out.. Yoh its a draw a drawn series?? Who would have thought😳😳 thought ABs would win today but Lions were good great game to watch. Hope we can win our series againts them in 4 years time.
Well, the good thing is, is that it bodes well for the future of British & Irish Lions tours….
111 @ Puma:
Oompie, was good to have you here again!
There was a lot of press about Lions tours to be cancelled in future and that this was the LAST British & Irish Lions series…
So, I hope this ensures the future of Lions tours!
@ Bullscot: 108 think in 4 years time Eddie Jones will coach them. Hope we can make it a exciting series and beat them . Cant wait for them to come here again. Truly enjoy their supporters.
113 @ grootblousmile: hope they still keep the Lions series still going truly hope they come here in 4 years time.
Okay good to catch up but need to dash out now. Cheers to you both.
116 @ Puma:
Cheers…. Super Rugby now on!
Firstly, congratulations to both Teams on a great/magnificent Test Match and Series.
Secondly to the BIL fans,
who came,
saw,
and almost conquered.
Thanks for coming. I hope you will all be back in 12 yrs time. Safe journey home.
It may be thanks to you, that Lions Tours will continue into the future.
You bring enthusiasm, colour , humour and personality to a Tour like no others. It was a unique experience to at one of your games.
Thirdly………………………………I think a drawn Series may have been ……over all…..a good thing. (although I do think, the best team by a slight margin tonight was NZ)
All Blacks should have won this match but forced and unforced errors cost them dearly. NZ play a high risk game.
Forthly: Great to see Puma log in. There is a good greyhound racing in NZ called “Puma Pants”. Every-time I see him racing I think of my Sharkie friend.
Thanks also to Groot and Bully. I like to see alternative views post match.
Best test Match since J/burg in 2014.
Mr and Mrs Barrett should be well pleased.
Every point the AB’s (the All Barretts) scored, a Barrett had a hand in it. And sometimes two hands.
