Romano sees yellow early doors.

Cynical.

It’s premature I realise. But this is a wonderful rugby team and they are going to be difficult to beat.
I cannot say the same for my own team playing later tonight.

grootblousmile on 23 July 2016 at 4:48 pm

This time a much more solid Saders scrum and a good clearance kick from deep inside their own 22.
55

Tassies on 23 July 2016 at 4:49 pm

@ Scrumdown:
Morgan?
56

grootblousmile on 23 July 2016 at 4:49 pm

Lions penalty, Kieran Read on his elbows over the ball… not on his feet, in other words!
57

grootblousmile on 23 July 2016 at 4:50 pm

Elton Jantjies for goal…

Man but he sports a kak mowhawk hairstyle…
