Hard hitting tackles, good antitode for a hard running attack. Now a try built purely on defence. Lions need to adjust their decision making.

They haven't left SA since the 12th of March. Only 1 fixture out of the country after that in which they didn't even send the actual team. No fucking wonder they're running around like beserkers.

Your point a) is a stretch that I didn't suggest. Your point b) is fair after reading back my last paragraph, I shouldn't have suggested it's ok when the ref lets everything go all of a sudden. The point I wanted to make was that Jantjes and the Lions benefitted A LOT from his forward passes...

No glasses here. Jantjes has thrown 6-7 forward passes over this and (especially) last week that have lead to huge breaks or tries. And please, please don't mistake this for me being bitter. He's a good player playing well but his passing technique is very frustrating. He doesn't throw the loopy...

Infact I just flat out don't like Jantjes. He's cocky, throws forward passes all day and then whinges at the ref (irony, i know) after 80mins when 20 points ahead. Good game Lions.

Turned into a game of touch (Jantjes still playing NFL). Lions have been magnificant and deserve a final spot. Highlanders looked knackered 15mins into the game, one game too far this one. Faf de Klerk, easy man of the match. Hurricanes will still have to be favourites in Wellington.

Were the Lions training with the Russian olympic team in the offseason? They play like beserkers, Kriel is a beast.

Oh I know, I wait till the end of the game to give credit. Game time is for whinging ;). To be fair it was crap officiating, IMO. Just a matter of how much for the Lions. Highlanders look out on their feet already.

Payper 'avin an absolute laugh with his ruck officiating, and they score off the back of it.

Not convinced. Provide screenshot evidence, witnessed and signed. Faf de Klerk is pretending to be the best halfback in the world, most annoying. You know it's a dodgy Jantjes pass when the producer chooses the end on replay. This fact brought to you by your friendly neighbourhood objective fan.

Highlanders doing well to not be out of the game at half time. Thrown away a certain try and easy 3 points. Could be much closer. Lions look good. Not unbeatable though, they're only South African ;)

Van Rensburg ALSO dropped it over the line. He didn't place it IMO.

He didn't place the ball. That was no second try at all. Highlanders looked knackered 15mins in.

Jantjes still thinks he's a quarterback.

Got away with too much in the first half, precedent set for the second. Gardner didn't punish them and the Chiefs didn't put points on them. Chiefs fault though.

That's the AB 10 if ever I saw one.

It's almost unfair on the Stormers not getting to play tougher opposition during the regular season. The Lions obviously deserve their spot. Going to be tough for the Highlanders to win this semi with the travel done. It's been SA-ARG-NZ-AUS-SA consecutively now, with travel back to NZ if they...

Lions playing pretty bloody well. Crusaders have lacked a little composure with the ball.

Joubert has let every forward pass go. In fact he's having an out and out shocker.

Dagg having a shocker.
