South Africa vs British & Irish Lions - Test 1

[saulan]

Have been surprised by the Springbok forward dominance at this stage in the game. Dominating the rucks and scrums are looking super solid as well.

 

[Rinkadink]

“A maul occurs when the ball carrier is held by one or more opponents and one or more of the ball carrier's team mates holds on (binds) as well (a maul therefore needs a minimum of three players). The ball must be off the ground.”

According to this yes

If that's the only definition being followed today I hope its consistent.

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

Lions looking vitamin Sex deficient

 

[Bada-Bing!]

SA defo winning the battle of the collisions atm.

 

[Groundhog]

Boring enough game so far. Would disagree Saffas have had the edge in the scrum. They're immediately scrumming in because they can't take the pressure. SA generally on top though

are suggesting they should be trying to shag the boks?

 

[Rinkadink]

Well ref there wasn't consistent, own player had clearly bound so Daly should't have had to release when knees hit floor?

 

[Bada-Bing!]

nice TO Maro.

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

What was Fak doing?

 

[ncurd]

Maro has something like 3 turnovers now.

 

[AlRums]

Great play by Itoje

 

[JG-21]

Why isn't Daly taking the kicks down the right side?

 

[Bada-Bing!]

Maro again.

 

[Bada-Bing!]

But not supporting his bodyweight. Lucky to get away with that.

 

[Rinkadink]

Shouldn't have been called back for scrum, was knock on advantage only not a penalty.

 

[Hydraulxx]

Boks lucky to get the scrum advantage.. should have been over after that cross kick

 

[Reiser99]

Is it still a penalty if the ball carrier has released the ball and it's the 9 not letting go?

 

[Dean Cooperfield-West]

With all these (questionable) penalties being given away Vunipola would be an improvement

 

[Groundhog]

Lions need to get into the Afters more.

 

[pagliaccio_euforico]

Why isn't Daly taking the kicks down the right side?

So biggar can show off his 18m banana kicks.
