| Not a good first half at all.
Bit weird considering in RL i'd have expected Monye's effort to be given a try. Benefit of doubt lad..
I still find it weird that a big hit is frowned upon.
Still think the lions can do it, but i'd get Jones and Vickery off too.

The Scrummaging & Line Outs have been dire so far taking nothing away from how good South Africa have been in that department but when the Lions have had ball in hand the have looked dangerous and i think O'Gara, Roberts & O'Driscoll can make a more effective 2nd Half, Also Stephen Jones missed penalties haven't helped us either...

You can't Shoulder Charge in Rugby Union it is classed as a dangerous tackle you have to lead with the arms, I got Sin-Binned twice for it last season...

Yeah, but it's still bloody stupid in a game you can trample on people in.

big probelm is that they always rush the call i think. Like waiting 2-3 mins is a huge ask in such a fast paced games as rugby union ( sarcasm drolling here! ).
Just need a big screen for dicisions.. Not talking to ref.

| Game over.
Ref didn't give them anything in first half.
One of those with another 5 mins the Lions would have won.
