Lions versus Highlanders

Darn, Landers score!

And they're over, shou ld be a 7 pointer.

12-7 Landers, 36min.

That ankle tap was great! But they scored anyway 

Hi all! Lions score!

Yellow on the cards?

Lions score a try they tried very hard to butcher.Good work by Skosan dodging the tackle and making the crucial break. Hey Draad.

14-12 Lions, 39min.

Attempted intercept, but if you don't make it stick, it's normally a penalty...penalty try in this case...and a yellow...not to be though, Laaaions up by 14-12 midway.

And that's half time.

Stiff upper lip Cloudy.

Hi Pakie, my fire is going. Wanna be done braaing before the Slaughter starts.

I was here for the last 20 only...looks like a good matchup.

Oranges time. Gosh, what to say at this stage? I expected the Lions to trail by many at halftime, but no, they are still well and truly in the game. But can they keep this up in the 2nd half?

Keep 'n ekstra pakkie wors handy for a consolation braai if the slaughter gets too much Draad.

They haven't looked outplayed at all Blikkies, think they should be able to keep it a contest.

Kwagga has bulked up considerably.

Kwagga is undeniable.

This guy has to be in the WC squad.

That looked too easy. Come on Lions. Vasbyt.

Landers score another softish try.

22-21 Landers 61min. Luckily for the Lions the Landers aren't landing their conversions.

4:30 PM now....Jantjies slots the penalty...24-22.

Penalty Jantjies, 24-22 Lions, 64min.

I was away for a while too. Can't trust these people

Dyantyi looking hungry but seeing so little of the ball.

Mapoe now knocks a pass that wasn't his and Landers have it again.

Dayimani takes all of two minutes to show he's the fastest man on the pitch.

What a try. Lions with some quality off the bench.

Marx on left wing scores under the posts!

Less than 10 to go. 31-22

Superb offloading by the Lions and they score.

That was Reynolds, Draad. Slow down with the beers.

Not the beers...seems I really need some glasses...an not the ones you drink from.

Gee, looked a bit like he dropped it to me.

Anyway, try stands, 31-29 Lions 75min.

lol .... geniet dit Draad.

I'm actually having a Lion Lager...light stuff....between tending the meat, watching tha game and typing, I screwed it up a bit...sorry.
