Someone in trouble for a tip tackle

How did he get away with that? Looked bad.

Actually looked fine on replay

[No Quarter]

30 mins in and NZB still have the lead, crazy stuff.

[SimonAdd_2]

This is awful from the Lions. AWJ, Henderson, Best and Hogg all terrible so far. Launchbury and Hartley will be watching thinking "WTF?"

Its like a shield challenge with Barbarians playing the part of Thames Valley or North Otago

[No Quarter]

Starting to fall off some tackles now, danger time before the half.

[Kirwan]

They are tackling well, but they can't keep this up much longer.

[Donsteppa]

If the Lions start like this against a Super Rugby side they'll be out of the game by now.

[Bones]

Hogg definitely didn't release that. Baabaas shafted.

[gt12]

Just a matter of time now though. Fantastic first 30 from these Baa baas

[Kirwan]

Great scrum from the baabaas.

[Kirwan]

Yes! Great defence!

[No Quarter]

That's awesome, two 5m scrums defended. These guys already have stories for the grandchildren.

[Bones]

You can't get more cynical than that! Lucky not to see yellow.

[Kirwan]

So what feels heavier? Semi-pro legs or jet lagged legs?

[dingo]

You got to say that Bryn Gatland is (so far) not doing his future chances of a super contract any harm.

I know that is a double negative, so i'll just say he looks OK

[SimonAdd_2]

Sexton... Jesus.
