Just tuned in, Aus has an attacking scrum 5.
Australia vs British & Irish Lions #3
Pouring with rain, meh.
Brilliant offload from Suaalii, drawing in two to release Pietsch in the corner. No conversion, 5-0.
Howzit Pakie. I will try Livetv.sx, worked for me last time. Come OZ beat there socks of!
Lynagh once again drops a high ball that turns into huge advantage for the Lions. 5m lineout advantage.
Howzit MP.
Torrential rain coming down as the Lions assault the Aussie line.
Pietsch with a big tackle, that's the fire in the defense the Aussie backs lacked last week.
Lynagh with an absolute nothing kick deep.
Pietsch has come to play, soggy or not.
Aussie holds Aki up, wins the scrum. Pietsch again with the momentum breaking hit.
Oz wins a scrum penalty. Sheehan popped out of that right quick.
Hehe, handbags come out. Skelton with some shithousery. Of course now a conference between the officials instead of just calling play on, nothing in it.
Russell drops it cold, already looking where he wanted to go with it before he had caught it. Conditions are bad but Oz is getting to the Lions a bit here.
Lynagh finally with something else than catch and pass as he does a little show and go.
Good sustained attack by Oz, they have a penalty in front. Touch 5.
Lions get the turnover, 3 points lost for Oz. In these conditions the 3 is probably a good option when you're right in front.
Oz this time take the penalty, 8-0
Lynagh off for HIA, Donaldson on.
White has made a difference, very crisp service.
Lions rumbling but a super turnover by Hooper ends it.
White kicking some fine touches as well.
Oz line in front of the kick but not called.
Oz steals a lineout to end the half, 8-0. Some tough shit going on out there, plenty of blood, Itoje has failed his HIA so won't be back.
Lions player down. Handbags again.
Ryan copping Skelton's knee to his head. Accidental, hopefully no sanction.
Porter starting the scuffle by yanking on Skelton while he was checking on Ryan.
Players leaving the field now due to a lightning warning. Play suspended. Some chaos as spectators in the open now also asked to move to covered areas.
Apparently there's a 30 minute delay after every lightning strike within 10km of the stadium. So who knows how long this interruption can go on. Sad for the Aussies who've well and truly had the upper hand.
In the meantime with play about to resume, Lynagh's HIA apparently came from a cleanout hit by Sheehan. Donaldson still on so that's probably Lynagh's night.
Tupou into a gap, tackled short and loses it in the tackle. Close. Oz still in a good position, Lions scrum. And Lions penalty as the scrum goes down.
Genge looked to be scrumming in on the angle there. Again.
Lions lose two lineouts in a row.
Much better defensive line speed from the Aussies.
Morgan with a good turnover penalty now.
Some real mongrel on defense by the Aussies, physically dominating the Lions for much of the game.
Some huge hits in the backline by Aus and Jorgenson picks up the loose ball and sprints away to score. Aus is fucking smashing the Lions out there. Defensive pressure from the Aussies is like night and day from last week. 15-0
Wilson drops the restart to give the Lions an immediate chance to hit back.
Perfect read on Farrell's pass by White to disrupt the Lions attack and get Aus poossession.
White off after a pretty handy performance.
