[QUOTE="shazbooger, post: 268236"] Weird thread. Kinda expected it though. Boks won, fair and square. Dont think anyone is debating that. The pack (not just Vickery) were nowhere near good enough. Vickery is the obvious scapegoat but the lineout was just as bad, their defense of the maul was pathetic, and they didnt get quick ball until the second half. I dont think anyone of the Lions fans can debate that we were bullied up front for the first 30-40 minutes. Thats where the game was lost. I dont believe the subs were the catalyst though. The Lions started to come into it earlier then that, and the subs were probably the right call to get fresh legs into the game. DeVilliers didnt f*** up, the Boks just ran out of steam. Wont happen next week. Incidently, the ref overruled the TMO (Monye's dissallowed try) once the TMO stated the ball was carried over, held up, then went out of play from the tackle. The 22 was probably the right call. [/QUOTE]
