Force at home are tough, good luck to the Lions.

Lions may sneak it but I am going with force on this one

 

[LittleGuy]

Bit of a slow one so far, and I missed the only try while in the bathroom LOL. Pretty sloppy stuff out there on the field as well.

 

[TRF_heineken]

That white card for biting is total BS!!

First of all, that guy of the force came from behind van der linde and took him in a rear naked choke hold, with CJ's mouth behind his arm, and secondly, CJ has a mouthguard in!

 

[ZeFrenchy]

Cheap penalty to give he Lions the losing BP...

 

[LittleGuy]

Not sure why the commentators were bashing the decision to take the penalty for the bonus point the Lions are desperate for points in the standings, how does a tap and run and inevitabe knock on help them.

 

[TRF_Ezequiel]

A try wouldn't have gotten them more than the penalty anyway. They would still be trailing by 2 points if they got to a converted try.
