He has veen good the last couple of yearsGreat tackle by Mapoe! His defence is super solid and he breaks the gain line. Is it me or has Mapoe been getting better with age? Hope he stays injury free.
The first 15 minutes of the half I thought we are in for a beating from the Chiefs but the Lions have surprised me... Very pleasantly I might add
I'm sorry but this ref is really doing his best to ignore infringements by the Lions. At least two rucks they don't release the ball and not a peep from him.
I've seen this again as the Chiefs not allowing the player to place the ball... but that last one, you might be right![]()
It is touch and go, but the majority is more to do with the Chiefs not clearly releasing in order to slow the ball down.
*Brilliant try
The last quarter is going to be critical for the Lions. Need to keep the fatigue at bay to grind it out.
They've had a very complete performance so far. Forwards and backs doing the business.
No replay of lineout throw in ?
