Now there is a match I want to see becoming a replay of last season. 18 tries in all and a final score of 65-72! The higest score ever in Super Rugby overall, the highest score ever by an away side and the highest score ever by a team clinching a double bonuspoint. </p><p></p><p>The Lions lost to the Stormers last weekend and this will be their 10th match without having a bye. This is weird since the Stormers and Brumbies have their second bye this week! The Johannesburg side has struggled with conversions and penalties until last week when Burton Francis stepped up and ended the match with the best kicking-average this season so far by a Lions-player. what does this mean for Elton Jantjies and Andre Pretorius? The 20-year old Jantjies is a talent with high potential but hasn't stepped up to the plate yet while Pretorius is showing that experience alone is not enough. Michael Rhodes has been cleared by SANZAR for a dangerous tackle last week and can play. The flanker, who joined the Lions this season after having won the Currie Cup with the Sharks (mainly as a benchwarmer) is likely to start on the bench if Joshua Strauss is fit to play. </p><p></p><p>The Chiefs travelled to South Africa without their mentor and veteran Tana Umaga. He suffered a calf-injury during a training session which forces him to stay in New Zealand. Jackson Willison will replace the outside center. After losing to the Crusaders and seeing the Hurricanes win in Bloemfontein they are now bottom of the NZ Conference and they hope to grab a win either in Joburg or next week when they move 100 km North to face the Bulls. The Chiefs have been surprising with a win over the Sharks (15-12) but disappointed along the way by losing at home to the Blues. The lowest scoring game between the 2 sides in the last 10 years was in 2006, when there were 37 points between them. Amazing huh? Wait till you see the rest of the results. </p><p></p><p>[TABLE]2010 <img src="http://superxv.com/siteimages/teams/Lions.gif" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> <strong><span style="color: red">65</span></strong> <strong><span style="color: green">72</span></strong> <img src="http://superxv.com/siteimages/teams/Chiefs.gif" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></p><p>2009 <img src="http://superxv.com/siteimages/teams/Chiefs.gif" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> <strong><span style="color: green">36</span></strong> <strong><span style="color: red">29</span></strong> <img src="http://superxv.com/siteimages/teams/Lions.gif" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></p><p>2008 <img src="http://superxv.com/siteimages/teams/Lions.gif" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> <strong><span style="color: green">33</span></strong> <strong><span style="color: red">27</span></strong> <img src="http://superxv.com/siteimages/teams/Chiefs.gif" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></p><p>2007 <img src="http://superxv.com/siteimages/teams/Chiefs.gif" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> <strong><span style="color: green">34</span></strong> <strong><span style="color: red">7</span></strong> <img src="http://superxv.com/siteimages/teams/Lions.gif" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></p><p>2006 <img src="http://superxv.com/siteimages/teams/Lions.gif" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> <strong><span style="color: green">21</span></strong> <strong><span style="color: red">16</span></strong> <img src="http://superxv.com/siteimages/teams/Chiefs.gif" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></p><p>2005 <img src="http://superxv.com/siteimages/teams/Chiefs.gif" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> <strong><span style="color: green">45</span></strong> <strong><span style="color: red">14</span></strong> <img src="http://img18.imageshack.us/img18/8171/catsrugbyclublogo.png" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></p><p>2004 <img src="http://img18.imageshack.us/img18/8171/catsrugbyclublogo.png" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> <strong><span style="color: green">23</span></strong> <strong><span style="color: red">21</span></strong> <img src="http://superxv.com/siteimages/teams/Chiefs.gif" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></p><p>2003 <img src="http://superxv.com/siteimages/teams/Chiefs.gif" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> <strong><span style="color: green">40</span></strong> <strong><span style="color: red">9</span></strong> <img src="http://img18.imageshack.us/img18/8171/catsrugbyclublogo.png" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></p><p>2002 <img src="http://img18.imageshack.us/img18/8171/catsrugbyclublogo.png" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> <strong><span style="color: red">25</span></strong> <strong><span style="color: green">36</span></strong> <img src="http://superxv.com/siteimages/teams/Chiefs.gif" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></p><p>2001 <img src="http://superxv.com/siteimages/teams/Chiefs.gif" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> <strong><span style="color: green">22</span></strong> <strong><span style="color: red">18</span></strong> <img src="http://img18.imageshack.us/img18/8171/catsrugbyclublogo.png" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />[/TABLE]</p><p></p><p>* The Lions participated as the Cats before 2006 when they formed a franchise together with the Cheetahs</p></blockquote><p></p>
