8 minutes on 1 scrum. Props' getting hard on's all around the country

Any real man would.

Brumbies stuffed that scrum position. The Lions' replacement front rankers are miles ahead of the starters.
Heinke van der Merwe will make a differense to any scrum Nick?

Ja Oom - Heinke vdM and Hannes Franklin came on and made a big difference. Alexander was taking Kevin Buys to school at scrum time.

Ja Heinke pushing busses from age 6. Franklin a great find from the Pumas. Pitty we cant see Ronnie Uys playing with him. Pumas had a big scrum all CC 1st dividion last year.

How is Francis going at 10? This is his big change.

Pretty average at the moment to be honest. Just put a kick out on the full and not getting his backs firing.

He did kick a penalty from his own half tho.

Expect him to be a bit jittery in his first real match for the Lions. Hope they'll play better in the second half.

Brumbies finally put something together for a try 17-6 now and I'd say they're safe as the lions have shown no firepower at all.

Dare I say they need Carlos...

Well I was wrong PB - a lions try has them back in this.

The Brumbies look so flat. At home against the Lions they should be killing it.

Horrible.

Coetzee the replacement scrummy also a Puma find, the wet weather should fit his running style, just need a haircut tho.

Coetzee playing very well.


No try by my call. He's held and doesn't reach with the arms - he moves his body

Was Valentine always this bad or is he just having an off night?

Apart from that inside ball that led to the try, his general passing and options have been very poor...

Wow what a shit game by Giteau. How anyone rates him as a flyhalf when most of the set plays have him at 12 is a mystery.

In all seriousness, he just doesn't do a thing for a back-line when he's at ten. If the Brumbies or Wallabies want success they really have to bite the bullet and say enough is enough.
