Foley with a droppy and the obligatory embarrassed look on the face after it goes wide.

Marx with another superb half break releases Green with the offload and Lions gain good ground. Knock on and Tahs scrum on their 10m.

Well no shortage of offloads in this game. Can get a bit messy but it has been entertaining. Lions have a lineout 5.

And Tahs get a scrum on their own line. Opportunity lost for the Lions. For now. 29-28 77m in.

Yep, they need to stick around in the Tahs half or that decision can come bite them.

And they get the scrum penalty. Tahs not too pleased, asking the ref if he wants  a seconds look at that.

And Tahs now win the scrum. Last chance for them. Can the Lions scrum dominate again. 30 seconds on the clock.

No confidence in any of the South African teams displays...we have good to outstanding individual players but cannot combine as an effective winning unit.

We have grave tutoring problems at top level because schools seem to have good coaches...school standards appear to be good but in between some thing is so obviously wrong.

Is it our mindset and approach or is it a panic mentality which appears to be inherent because we live in a country with so many negatives???

The foul ups relate to basics. 

The skill levels and creativity of the backs are inferior to Nz Oz and Argies. The skill levels etc in the Sun Wolves backs are better than any SA side. 

Desparately need top notch backline coaches to come to SA and help out.

Quite correct Beeno...the NZ'ers, Ozzies and Argies and yes lets take the wooden spooners the Sunwolves...their backline is very good, in fact awesome at times but they lack the backbone in the scrums and basic sets but they seem to be improving there but unfortunately not enough...if they had some Georgian forwards they would be hard to beat.

Japanese rugby has my interest as it is the fastest developing rugby nation and I will not be surprised if they qualify in RWC in the pools.
