More scrum troubles… and both front rows get a talking to.
Saders try?
TMO
Looking for a double movement.
Try awarded, Sevu Reece!
Crusaders 17 / 3 Lions
Sevu Reece, half intercept… and the Saders get a penalty at the ensuing ruck!
Overthrow by the Saders at the lineout and a great exit kick by Jantjies.
Lost forward by the Saders on about the middle spot.
Lions not in the match at all. Can’t get their hands on the ball.
Again the scrum goes down, surely the Saders loosehead prop must be close to a Card now!!
Main problem is we don’t have a SA ref officiating the match.
Lions scrum penalty again… Lions kick for touch.
Hooter has long gone…

Saders turning over the ball way to easy everytome the lions try to get momentum.
38 & 40 @ McLook:
Hello Kalahari!
Yes, must be very tiring to defend for so long, by the Lions.
Lions still in with a change. Just need to get their hands on the pill and string in some phases.
Morning all, it’s been a long time!
Hope you are all well!

The trouble is, the Saders are like a slow-warming machine… they just get stronger and more powerful as a game wears on… and they could still run away with this quite easily too!
IMO, that 2nd try was from a double movement. Ref needs to look at the ‘Saders no 1. He keeps on collapsing the scrum.

My magtig Perdjie, I thought you fell off the edge of the earth!!

How the Lions start 2nd half is key. They need to score first and early.

Usually it is the Saders who score both sides of halftime.
But you are right, the Lions would have to make immediate impact in the 2nd half, otherwise the game will blow away from them.

Yip, they now its key go neutralize the lions scrum and will do it by hook or crook.
First 10 minutes of 2nd half will might be key.
2nd Half ON!
Lions immediate mistake at the kick-off receipt…
Saders got the ball. Not good for lions.
Saders ruck penalty, Mapoe not rolling away.
Kicked into the corner for the 5m lineout.
