Sharks lucky to have ZERO!!
My prediction now at Halftime is that the B & I Lions will score over 60 in the match…
2Nd Half ON!
Sharks penalty, in their own half…
Hello GBS how’s the game?
With the British & Irish Lions so good against the Sigma Lions and now against the Sharks… makes one wonder what is in store for the Bokke.
Is this just an excellent Lions tour group… or are the SaA Privinces really that bad without their Bokke players in their midst???

I think it’s a combination of both GBS, but we will see how things go with the COVID infections
@ grootblousmile:
Sounds like they are doing well in the scrums and making the breaks just offloading and handling very poor
A Number of Sharks subs on at the same time…
Sharks just not getting over the advantage line, time after time!!
Lions penalty, on about the middle spot…
Excellent touchfinder!!

seems a bit early in the game for that or were the ones being subbed playing very poorly?
Lions spill the ball 5m out…
I see Dylan Richardson is on the bench, with another hooker on the bench guess he will be back to loose forward when he comes on. Think he is a very good player, has he been injured lately?
44 @ Bullscot:
I think it is just the regular subs…
Try James Venter, Sharks!!
Sharks 7 / 26 B & I Lions
Checking the lineups GBS looks like Finn Russell is the only back on the bench wonder which of the forwards will come on as backs if required, probably Watson
BIL penalty, 12m or so from their own line…
Sharks now playing a bit better…
Or maybe someone like Sam Simmonds go to the backs, he is very fast and skilful
Try BIL, Josh Adams again!!
Sharks 7 / 33 B & I Lions
52 @ Bullscot:
Yeah, strange… maybe Taulupe Faletau can play in the backline too…
Try Louis Rees-Zammit, BIL!
Sharks 7 / 40 B & I Lions

Maybe to bash it up at centre
Jeremy Ward fails to pick up a loose ball… open line begging 45m away…
Good ball dribbled away by the Sharks…
