They kick into the corner….
BIL try… Wyn Jones!
TMO
Potential foul play against a BI Lions player…
No, it is against Courtney Lawes, neck roll.
So, it will be no try…

So, it is a 14-point lead at Halftime… so I call a win for the British & Irish Lions this early by about 42 points at the end…
Let’s see how close I am at the end.
The Leeus have had good scrums though, whereas the Lions have had good lineouts and attacking play from set pieces…
Any guys stand out in particular so far GBS?
Some really, really soft moments have cost the Leeus!
38 @ Bullscot:
Hogg, Ali Price, Hamish Watson… probably the pick of the bunch
2Nd Half ON!
@ grootblousmile:
sounds like you are watching the B&I Lions with your blue tinted Scotland glasses on 
Try BIL, Josh Adams!
Converted.
Sigma Lions 7 / 28 B & I Lions
Try Rabz Maxwane, Leeus!
Sigma Lions 14 / 28 B & I Lions
Supper time enjoy rest of game
BIL penalty, kickable… but kicked to the corner…
Another try Josh Adams, BIL!
Sigma Lions 14 / 35 B & I Lions
BIL penalty, just outside their own 22.
I would think another 3 tries in the offing in this match… and could be all of them from the B & I Lions
B & I Lions scrum penalty… kicked to touch.
Leeus penalty, man over the ball… the replacement scrummie.
TMO
Checking some foul play, I believe by the BIL on the replacement scrummie.
Could be a card here…
Contact neck and back… after the tip-tackle.
No card… eishhhh!
Leeus penalty again…
They duff it… eish!
15 Minutes to go in the match
Try Gareth Davies, BIL!
TMO
Try stands
