Lions Team v Emerging Springboks

[Donny B.]

I've a bad feeling about this game! Looks a decent Emerging Boks side. Weather might make it a lottery though.

[Donny B.]

Oh sweet Jesus, desperate miss from ROG in front of posts

Fair play Keith Earls there, the opportunity was lucky with the cr@p kicking from the E-Boks but his finish was class.

[Donny B.]

Great try by Earls

all the paddies playing well.. heaslip can sleep easy there is no way in hell that donkey powell will take his place

DOCs having a stormer imo...putting himself in a great position to be picked for Saturday.

fitz putting his hand up, super defence as we all know. earls could get a bench spot and fitz the wing on tonights performance.
darce playing well but knowone is going to break the current centre partnership

So far the man of the match is Rolland. Best performance from a ref so far. Brilliant at the breakdown.

Finally a ref who controls the breakdown

I'm not sure "stay on your feet" translates into Afrikaans

ROG off after 44. Could be a good sign for Saturday

DOC nearly has try

Earls struggling badly under the high ball now

Earls struggling badly under the high ball now

and The Bull making a big shout for the bench, if not a start.

Bull has played very well

Wallace on for Powell??!!

Disaster. Suppose a few guys put their hands up for test shirts but still: Disaster.

[Donny B.]

13-all last minute try and brilliant touchline conversion.

In fairness the young Boks probably deserved it

[tate]

earls needs to get more clued in defensively, should have been his man on the outside there for the try. Having said that, he was excellent going for'ard

[tones]

Barnes seems to have money on Shane Williams playing in the test. Played a decent 20 minutes after 3 other matches is apparently putting his hand up. Think Gatland and Edwards are doing their best to get him in.
Hook after playing himself into contention shows he doesn't have the top two 2 inches to close out a game. ROG def on the bench I would say if not starting. No worries for Heaslip I'd imagine either. Scrum a lot better but Rolland did referee so more than a coincidence there I'd imagine.
