Etzebeth getting some breath freshener in for the social after

 

[Ragey Erasmus]

Farrell really doesn't know how to do anything but kick

 

[big ginger 8]

Yeah idk how that wasn't checked

The ref called for it to be checked the second it happened.

I know peyper asked the tmo to check for it as it happened but it never seemed to go through the formal tmo process. I might just have missed it.

[General Melchett]

Itoje Lions MOTM by a country mile

 

[Dean Cooperfield-West]

Beard has had a huge impact since coming on, fair play to him

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

I missed it how bad was Wiese injury?

 

[Don't Skip Leg Day]

Daly and LRZ on the wing without adams at FB for the tests?

 

[UlsterRugby2012]

This whole tour we've focused on wide play and attacking.
This entire game we've kicked. Any time we've tried going through the hands it's been extremely positive.
Am I missing something?

Fan choice is Curry

 

[Jer1cho]

Got away with that one. Lack of match time counted in the 2nd half. Lions are definitely fitter.

South African commentary were saying he was Lions MOTM as well

Last two games with Townsend isolating have seen abysmal tactics. I blame Gatland for taking over the attack

No stretcher but looked in a lot of pain - maybe ankle ligaments?

Where?
I was honestly watching him to see what the hype is
Made three tackles, 1 carry for 0 metres, gave away two penalties

 

[Cruz_del_Sur]

I enjoyed it.
Thought RSA outsmarted (not outplayed) the lions on the 1h.
That and a very stupid decision from the lions (not to go for a scrum at the end of 1H) decided the game imo.

Couple of 50-50 calls could have swung the game the other way i guess, but nothing too big to claim bias.

Was fun to hear Nygel Owens say "the refs are now forced to make a call"
