Lions tour of New Zealand 2017

Can't say that hasn't been coming. Ridden our luck so far. Have a feeling this is going to be a grim morning.

Lol.

ABs have been a catch away from busting this game wide open on 3 occasions

This will (hopefully) go down to the wire

Not something you associate with them missing chances like that. We could easily be out of sight but as it is it is a close tense game and will only get more nervy in the 2nd half if it remains close.

We are getting completely stuffed here

Scoreboard doesn't show it yet but when you cling on against NZ they score buckets in the last 20

Scoreboard flatters us so much.

Bloody entertaining first half. Hoping for more of the same in the second.

On the whole, the Hurricanes backs are clicking beautifully. Laumape and J. Barrett inspired selections. Happy to admit I was wrong about them.

Haha, just think that New Zealand have been so good so far and they could easily have a 20 point lead if they had finished their chances off. If they play anything like the same level in the 2nd half we won't be able to do anything about it. No disgrace as the All Blacks are just superb.

 

[_Ed_]

Whoa, this is a long penalty attempt.

Edit: And it's good! Bloody hell.

 

[Howe_zat]

Daly would play for NZ.

Kicking may be the difference at the end of the series. Lions have been brilliant up to now, how many simple ones have been missed by Barrett?

 

[_Ed_]

Uh-oh.

No argument from me over that call, though.

 

[_Ed_]

Ooh, marginal call on the height of that tackle.

Edit: But another fantastic kick. 12-12...

 

[vogue]

12-12. I'll take that ..

 

[social]

Crazy game

Lions are offering precious little other than the ability to kick long range goals but reckon they will win

 

[flibbertyjibber]

12-12 13 minutes to go. Got to have some 4-1 about Lions. Might be a waste of money but worth a shot.

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Bugger, my stream must be behind you guys. Money down drain.
