    Still 7-13 after 66. That's a great effort.

    I'll wet myself laughing if the Baabaas score another try.

    This NZB is almost ideally suited to reinforce Lion preconceptions on NZ rugby... but missing the real differentiator.

    Yup, they saw and felt the fast game with lots of counter attack with forwards just as capable as backs with ball in hand, and they also saw NZ variety on attack as well as speed of thought and hand. That's what NZ Super teams can do but also they do offloading as well and the NZB haven't done any.

    Lions have been miles offside at a number of rucks in the last 5 mins.

    They bottled it there though, just not chancing their arm. They won't win this by being conservative.

    I really thought the Lions would have finished it off by now.

    Set something up for Vaka. He's been most dangerous!

    I was hoping for another bomb to put the cat amongst the pidgeons.
