Of course I'd pick the Brumbies... :erm:

I am really proud that they played proper Blues rugby, they had the ball movement and team cohesion which was lacking all season, having depth next year will make them a top contender. Brumbies did play well though, but not well enough…

I'm glad that Umaga has shown that a team must play rugby to the very end, no excuses. Just a bit too late, but expected with a new coach.

OT:

Japan’s women’s sevens team has top their group with 3 wins.
They have beaten the Kiwis 29-12, England 21-0…

Really awesome news in my opinion.

And also,

Fumiaki Tanaka, Kotaro Matsushima & Michael Leitch are in talks with the Sunwolves, three great Brave Blossoms. Matsushima has already signed according to Japanese media. Jamie is busy… also with the Panasonic wingers they may be real competition in 2017. Now they only need to sign Robbie Deans and Amanaki...

Just read my tea leaves... They say it's going to be a very, very long night for the Kings.

EDIT: And then the Kings score. :)

Combrinck should never kick like he did, again. Well done Kings, sit die Lions ore aan. Like the Hurricanes they are playing the Lions in their faces.

Introducing the little man to some winning rugby....

Won't let him near a Cheetahs game at this stage. He is too young for trauma like that.

Such an empty stadium, eish. Jirre if they seated me within 500 yards of those noisy shytes I'd demand a refund ..... how irritating can you get.

Lions looking tired compared to last week, coach cannot be feeling too easy.

They are taking the EP Kings too lightly

In their face yes, but they are off side almost every ruck
Only needs a little refinement. I am proud of how much the Kings has stepped up for this game, it shows determination. The Kings hooker playing his hart out for his team.

I've rated Maritule (sp) from very early this season

Kings defensive line is dissipating. Second half might be the Lions home run.
