Nic Groom? wtf

When did he join the Lions? This year? Used to be a Stormer. Seems odd.

I think it's a loner

Great defense not

O schit, Marx off

Gees, hope it's not serious....

Lions defense has been soft all season!! Bloody disappointing!!

 

[OrbitalDawn]

O schit, Marx off

Huge loss.

Marx has been a colossus this year.

Going to be a long evening for the Lions... Lineouts a mess!! Defense soft!!

Combrinck really not on form.

Elton's famous lack of BMT showing up in force

Combrinck really not on form.

It's very sad to see. I hope he comes right again.

So far nothing's going right for the Lions. If it continues like this then it's going to be a huge score for the Hurricanes.

Elton's famous lack of BMT showing up in force

At his very best he is a decent Super rugby 10 but nowhere near international quality and when he is off... well, then he's really off...

Combrinck really not on form.

Yeah, rusty from a long injury break. Probably should be playing him off the bench.

 

[sand_man]

Good try Lions, big mistake form the Canes at the exit and the Lions capitalize from the 5 metre scrum. That's a gift that keeps the Lions in the contest.

 

[faniebraai]

Finally a try before the break. Still looking really tough

 

[Mephisto_Helix]

Looking very haphazard overall and even more so when losing someone influential. Need to pull finger in the 2nd half and tighten things up more.

I actually think Robbie is technically a better hooker than Malcolm but obviously doesn't have the X factor that the latter does...

 

[Arthur]

Relief try on half time. Surprised Canes conceding so many t/overs. Need to get wider in 2H.

 

[Solitude]

Bloody hell that's an amazing kick by Barret.

Andries Coetzee has been playing like a man who has had all his self belief shattered in a tumlutous international season debut.
