Lions v Hurricanes (SF)

[ACT Crusader]

Lions scrum dominant. But dumb to take quick tap. Now a turnover and Ardie in.

Stupid not to kick for territory and use the lineout.

[gt12]

Ah yes, time for the canes to scrum like shit.

Wasted opportunity for points.

Yep, what a bizarre decision

:::

[gt12]

3-22 after 31 now.

[ACT Crusader]

Argh Coles was through but dropped it.

Canes ball in hand are dominating.

[ACT Crusader]

Kicking game of the two Barrett's has been very good so far.

Predictable play off the lineout by the Canes and Kriel is all over it.

[Rancid Schnitzel]

What a tackle by Goosen

[ACT Crusader]

Penalty to Lions off the lineout.

Lions almost in but what a play by Goosen to make the tackle and steal that ball.

Lions hot on attack after penalty

[Rancid Schnitzel]

Shit. Didn't need that.

[ACT Crusader]

Prop versus winger 3 metres out and prop wins.

Lions claw back. 22-10 Canes.

[antipodean]

Shite defence by Goosen. Get under the ball on your line.

[ACT Crusader]

Pretty good half. Canes need to try and keep the tempo up in that first 10 minutes of the second half because as is the case with visiting teams to Ellis Park, that final 20 minutes when the lungs are burning is the toughest.

[Unite]

Hurricanes really should be in front by more, only themselves to blame. Lions should be happy to only be down by 12.

Hurricanes passing and decision making letting them down a bit.

[ACT Crusader]

Something the Lions do pretty well is have players in motion in attack. They often have a player hitting the line at pace.

Canes defence holding up pretty well and Iike the Saders, have had to do most of the tackling in the first half.

[infidel]

If the Hurricanes cut out the Harlem Globetrotters carry-on and try to play with a bit more structure in the second half, they should be able to win this.

[Unite]

Can you see it coming yet?

[antipodean]

@infidel I think it's a deliberate game plan - to run the Lions into the ground.

[Stargazer]

Damn, Lions over again.

[Rancid Schnitzel]

This is stupid shit. They're handing them field position through headless crap. Calm it down TJ ffs.
