      Would it kill the Reds to attempt a short restart?

        Lions with a huge talent disparity.

        A gulf in fact.

        Yes, they're Test players versus provincials, but the provincials have more time together which should make a difference.

        And we've got a system that is paper thin for professionals

          Very rarely called for the attacking side at any level

            Oh if that was a Reds player rugby on reddit would already have a "was this a missed card?" Post by now.

            And some stupid Irish fluffybunny pontificating it was a straight red

              Yeah, although it's not that often they're right next to the halfback.

                Staunch defence from the Lions. All those phases and not making any metres.

                  @ACT-Crusader Reds losing their shape too, late arrivals to clean. Lions at test match intensity would have won a penalty there i reckon.

                        Lions showing a bit more in attack now lifting their intensity with players coming from deep and at pace. Reds defence is at 6s and 7s.

                            Reds will do well to keep this margin closer than the Force game

                              It's not as if I'm Nostradamus but I did call this. Still think score flatters Lions. So far.

                                Winger makes a great spot tackle but lightning ball. Geez this is impressive by the Lions, they're at training speed

                                  Morgan has been very busy. Some good old fashion openside play, hitting rucks with some reckless abandon and even a couple from an extra wide gate…..

                                      Kiss not smart enough to stack his bench with forwards, so the Lions class disparity is becoming more obvious with more minutes.

                                        Nothing to do with the tackler not releasing and not rolling away...
