kind of weird that we seem to run out of puff at the 60min mark after having to string a few phases together for the first time in the game. I, a) would have thought there would be a lot in the tank and b) surprised they managed to close out the last 20.
There were some pretty long periods of play in that second half, with some end to end stuff. Both sides had plenty of players sucking in the big ones.
Just the whole atmosphere seemed to get the better of a few from both sides tonight.
Lions backline had a very tough night in attack. They were met with staunch defence, but Sexton didn't vary his game at all. Their backline is screaming for their big running inside backs in Roberts and Tuilagi to open up space for BOD to work his magic. BOD in attack hasn't been given the space or time which is a credit to OZ defence.
Already looking forward to the Sydney test.
