    Geez, and now a pass from Ruru is intercepted and the Lions are over again. 28 - 10.

    They showed a stat earlier that the Blues had 62% possession and the Lions a lot of missed tackles, but that's clearly not reflected in the score.

      Rieko gets the try after a great pass from Ruru.
      Lots of subs have been made in the mean time, including Perofeta.

        Perofeta looks good with Ruru. Was Hodgman concussed?

          Wow, another try from Rieko! The subs have had a positive influence and have sped up the game considerably.
          Ruru + Perofeta is miles better than Nock + Gatland.

            More cohesion and the Team is really moving forward.

              SBW is pretty disappointing though.

                Duffie's defence has been suspect, he still comes in and exposes his Wing.

                  Not just Duffie's defence. Lions strike back immediately.

                  35 -24 to the Lions with 6 minutes to go.

                    Try Tupou. Probably the only name the commentators have pronounced right during the game.

                      Boys chancing their arm, bench has been strong. Lions have been strong at the breakdown. We can get the ball wide, keep the all in hand we can win this.

                          Awesome! The Blues beat the Lions with a converted try in referee's time! Geez, how much did the Blues improve after the subs came on!

                          Final score: Lions 35 - 38 Blues

                                  I was worried Ruru had been given the TSF curse when his first three touches were ankles/above the head/intercept but he added impetus after that.

                                        With Ruru he may have just edged on the right side of the ledger, but only just.

                                          @crucial Ruru must have been the most relieved man on the field when that touch down was not given,but great to see the Blues come up on the right side of the ledger,probably the Blues best win against an away team of real quality in a very long time.
