@@srodber915 The same way the snowflake roses (or is it white) cried after the Owen Farrel debacle. The tackle on JP Peterson with today's rules would have been a borderline red (at least a yellow). As a South African fan, I agree regarding the actions of Schalke - he was a lucky man to have still stayed on the pitch! If VAR was used then he surely would not have stayed on. But I salute that British team - they came to play and they fought fire with fire. Not many can stand up to South Africa when they come at you hard. Just ask the All Blacks after they have been brutalized by South Africa a couple of weeks back. Rugby is for real men, for the rest there is soccer....

How the referee saw someone gouging someone’s eyes, and thought it was worthy of only a yellow, is beyond me. That aside though, this is one of my favourite rugby matches, and series. Back when rugby was rugby, before they took power and strength away from the game. There would be about 7 red cards if this game was played today.

It wasnt actually his fault. If you watch the game there's 90 seconds on the clock so he can't kick it out. Lions don't track back either and the SA chase is great. So he has two options, last play if the game give SA the ball just inside your half for anlinout and hope you defend to win or he can up and under and go for the win looks to his left and sees the best fielding winger in the world and goes for it. Execution wasnt good but the decision is admirable. He was also very obviously concussed moments before this. It's often edited with other clips to make it look different than it actually was.

I’d always want the Lions to win or England to win. But I love the way that SA (usually) play the game. Tough and direct with great finishers. Yes, playing on the edge that way does result in unlawful acts with people like Corne Krige and Bakkies Botha seemingly preferring to play dirty rather than clean.

I remember a day I went to watch the Sharks playing the Auckland Blues in Durban, and I was sitting quite low on the stands, close to the turf edges. JP Petersen was on my side of the field. I just couldn't believe how big this bloke was for an international winger. I kept getting distracted, trying to get my head around how this frame could reach the speeds of a Bok wing, because I had seen many international wings before, and they weren't like that. To boot, Joe Rokocoko was his opponent and looked just as big.
