Knocked by Andries Coetzee for the Lions, on attack.

Interesting the decision to play Jantjies on 12.
In Nz 12 is considered the playmaker where in SA 12 us often used as a stampcar.

Yet another Lions scrum penalty, almost in front… but they kick for the corner!

Jantjies is just too light to be an effective inside centre, I think.

Lions try?

TMO

Carlu Sadie.

Super defence by Chiefs. TMO the check grounding. Try awarded
37

grootblousmile on 19 April 2019 at 10:13 am

Try awarded!

Looked short to me.

Yes I agree. I don’t thing he is a perfect 12. He is not taking the ball to the line like Mauger and Crotty who is also not big fellas.

Try Lions, Dyantyi!

Great dab-through by Warren Whiteley!

What brilliant grubber by Whiteley.

Massive halftime lead for the Lions… can they sustain it?
44

McLook on 19 April 2019 at 10:29 am

Chiefs is going to start 2nd half with a hiss and a roar.
45

McLook on 19 April 2019 at 10:30 am

Lions task is to score first and within first 10 minutes.
46

grootblousmile on 19 April 2019 at 10:30 am

2nd Half ON!
47

McLook on 19 April 2019 at 10:36 am

Lombard injured. Great talent, lacking experience. Pitty to see him go off.
48

McLook on 19 April 2019 at 10:37 am

Lions focussed.
49

McLook on 19 April 2019 at 10:39 am

Big scrum by Lions
50

grootblousmile on 19 April 2019 at 10:39 am

Again a massive Lions scrum on Chiefs ball, 5m from the Chiefs line… but the Chiefs get their ball, under huge pressure.
51

grootblousmile on 19 April 2019 at 10:40 am

Chiefs penalty, good touchfinder.
52

McLook on 19 April 2019 at 10:41 am

Lions not patient enough on attack. Needing more variety in terms of starter moves.
53

grootblousmile on 19 April 2019 at 10:41 am

Chiefs tackled out to touch… good defence.
54

grootblousmile on 19 April 2019 at 10:45 am

Chiefs close…

Chiefs 5m penalty…
55

grootblousmile on 19 April 2019 at 10:46 am

Tap and go…
56

grootblousmile on 19 April 2019 at 10:46 am

Over…. held up.
57

grootblousmile on 19 April 2019 at 10:48 am

Good Lions counter-ruck… on their own 5m line… cleared to touch… out still inside the Lions 22.

Knock… Lions scrum!
58

McLook on 19 April 2019 at 10:48 am

Great defence by Lions
59

grootblousmile on 19 April 2019 at 10:50 am

Lions scrum penalty…. Jantjies does not manage to kick out.
60

grootblousmile on 19 April 2019 at 10:51 am

Lions maul… ball does not emerge, Chiefs scrum.

But, at the moment the Chiefs scrum is a liability.
