Keep them out boys, I want to watch the final in GooseBay Saloon! Over a long Black Label draught…
Great steal
Gill steals the Lions lineout… and the Wallabies get a relieving penalty
what a line out steal
this is not good for my nerves
Just more than a minute to go…
Lions with a mountain to climb, Can’t make it back from here
Wallabies have the ball
Seconds left… Lions penalty for holding on… quick tap
Last chance saloon
Time is up on the clock
Lions penalty on halfway… no clear release
nooooooooooooooooo
Huge decision
51 or 52 m kick to goal
Incredible, my prediction is coming true!
What an end to the game…. what a game!
Too long, Halfpenny can’t kick that far. An action replay from last week, only the other way round
Short…
Wallabies win this one!
255 @ The_Young_Turk: You wise old sage, you!!!!
Well done Australia
yes, yes, yes,yes
what a match
this was brilliant
Final Score: Wallabies 16 / 15 Wallabies
As I predicted, Halfpenny is just a half kicker.
Series all square
Fokkit!Waar is die brandewyn nou!!!
Deans can unpack his suitcase for another week at least
😀
This was goooooooood!
Great match, I think the final is going to be massive, massive! Think Wobblies are going to have the edge.
Wow, I really thought that this was one of the strongest Lions team in the last few Lions tours, and the Aussie side left a lot to be desired. How wrong I have been. Australia now go into the final showdown as favourites, thats for sure. I wonder how the Boks will fare against them?
Ok manne, laat ek verder gaan pak, tjeers.
Kickers… the Sharks match is yours to Author, brother
