No worries from me in coughing up a possible GSP for this weekend's games. Always happy to see a Saffer team unhinge an Aussie team favoured to win.

Then there's this: https://www.alloutrugby.com/kings-weakest-link/

The bookies had it wrong: Waratahs (1) over Kings (12)

Kudos

Yeah, that commentator is a retard.
He always pronounces the the last names ending with "e" as "ee"
He did the same with de Allende.

 

[faniebraai]

Brilliant Mapoe try!

 

[faniebraai]

Lions so good with that maul turn over, it must frustrate the opposition so much

 

[D4N]

Frustrating first half, lets hope it gets better

Doesn't look like it

getting comprehensively schooled = crowd going all newlands :crylaugh:

 

[mbayshark]

Lions looking seriously rattled. Will have to regroup quickly otherwise this game will slip away.

 

[mbayshark]

^^Won't be good for my superbru, but will be great for the Sharks

 

[Fulcrum29]

Well done Lions, tight game.

 

[D4N]

Terrible performance

 

[SlowInternet]

Terrible game by Lions but we'll take the points.

 

[faniebraai]

Did well to scrape the win. Not clinical at all, but winning is winning... for now

 

[mbayshark]

Luckily they go on tour now to play Australian sides which are probably worse competition than the Jaguares.

 

[Mephisto_Helix]

Another tmo giving a try that shouldn't be ..... that was forward 100%, damn

Lions is not that good as most people seems to think, lucky to win the game as the Jaguares actually had the game and could not finish off the Lions. They were the better team and some poor decisions by the red played a hand.

Apart from the Stormers the Lions have not played proper opposition yet that will put them under pressure. Only time will tell, but winning ugly at this stage keeps the morale high. Getting to the quarters and semis we will see if stepped up to the plate.

New Zealand teams looking unstoppable atm, hopefully the Stormers can give us a good game and take the game to the Crusaders and maybe pip it. I do think this game will give me an indication where the Stormers are at present and where they will end up.

No one thinks the Lions are "that good". They pretty much suck compared to last year
