Lions vs Canes
-
@Stargazer Yeah silly selections IMO, I don't mind the Savea benching though because we need to keep our best player fresh as possible. Should have started Coles as he needs to start playing big minutes if he is going to feature heavily in the playoffs. But yeah, PUJ should have started and it would have kept everything else the same as it was last week.
I hope he doesn't start doing this in knock-out football.

@Canes4life amazingly, I can see them getting a lot more even with sabbaticals on the horizon

@Stargazer said in Lions vs Canes:
Referee: Jaco Peyper
AR1: Egon Seconds
AR2: Stefan Geldenhuys
TMO: Willie VosPeyper is not the worst ref around, but it's concerning that it's an all South African refereeing panel again.
Do you smell an old school bokke stitch up Star?

So, anyone else watching this game? I missed the first half and see that Marshall started at 10 instead of BB, Jordie has been moved to fullback, and Peter U-J starting at 13, with Toala named at 22, taking Peter U-J's spot on the bench.
Any reason given why?

Twitter tells me that BB was pulled because of an injury; some cynics say they never planned to play him.
Anyway, Dane Coles has scored in the corner. They're now checking a high tackle on TJP.
Geez, only a penalty. Apparently "a yellow card is not necessary", because the Canes have scored a try. Is that a rule? Weird.

Watching Ardie and Sam Cane playing recently, it's clear Hansen has a tough choice on who starts at 7.
Makes me feel warm all over...
