Lions versus highlanders official match thread

Great try Lions. I hope our kbbs friends are watching! 7-0 to Lions. Hoping its a hard afternoon for wee hig hlanders!

 Lions win a penalty going for touch. Lions pla ying fast paced rugby

 Highlanders going for posts. 

 Lions seem to have the advantage so far in this game. The Landers are falling off tackles & not making the first up tackles generally. They seem flat.

 Unlike the ref in the wee chieifi es game our Sa ref knows about off sides! Penalty slotted by jantjes its 10-3

 Brilliant try by Janse Van rensburg!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
JW it looks like the wee highlanders are being flattened. 
I cant wait for other Franchises to adopt the Lions approach. Good old fashioned Bok type rugby.

 Again a series of missed tackles & Lions score from way out.

 Highlanders lose ball over the line. Hahahahahahaha
Gooo Lions

 

 Dixon drops that ball over the line. That sums up the fact that the Landers are slightly off across the team. They will have to find their form.

Lions scrummed the wee highlanders badly. lets see how this one goes. Y es good scrum and brilliant clearance.

 Landers had few backs on the bench as they stacked the forwards so the loss of Osborne is a big deal.

 highlanders will need to negotiate last 20 minutes when Lions up the tempo.

 Highlanders miss penalty.  Time for another try Lions

 hey JW you could be around to view by 20,000th post. What a privilege!

 Naturally the lions take the scrum. Lighter pack but dominant scrum. Saffas just too tough! Akk ers does well and great clearance

 What a great break by Faf but its penalty to lions. going for touch.Scrum decimating pap highlanders!

 Penalty to highlanders. Going for posts.its 17-6 at half time.
Good half from Lions but its not o ver yet!

 Landers score 3 just prior to the half time break so they are just hanging in there. They will have to rely on the coach to figure out how to get the edge in this game but the first half was flat & tackling poor. Lions look good & as it is all going their way they will be very confident going into the second half.
Wee Beeno is over excited as usual

 Highlanders can't complain about being down on the scoreboard. Lions deserve their lead despite ou hacked waaaagh's plaintive bleating!

 JW you are clearly excited about my 20,000th post coming up! Here it is  


Lions you are on notice to celebrate this immense occasi on!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 BRILLIANT TRY INITIATED BY A SPEEDING JANTJES AN FINISHED BY SKONSAN

 Landers are so flat, they have no spark at all. Again missed tackles, not looking good for t he Landers.
