Great try, but that lineout throw nearly backfired. Tried the flat no-jump throw, but that only works if the opposition aren't paying attention and this time it was very low and nearly got nicked by the prop at the front.

Russell is in the mood today - three great plays in that attack and then nails the wide conversion.

It is the least of Greenwood's problems as a pundit, but I wish someone would tell him that Wiese is not pronounced like Visser. Really starting to get on my pecs.

Raynal may be plus for Lions after last week - as long as no high shots.

Fills me with horror every time I hear the name, only to remember that it's okay, he's not there, we're fine.

That is a nonsense penalty against Curry.

Gods, it looks even worse on replay. Practically inexcusable.

Wankhands from Lawes at the back of a lineout. He was thinking about what he was going to do with the free ball before he'd caught it.

Oh jesus that replay of Williams. Great under the high ball. Can't pass. Who could have known?

Great play by De Allende though. That's one where you've gotta just give marks to the guy in defence.

The tackle reminded me that Kolbe's on the pitch though. I had been wondering if he'd pulled out late or something.

Curry straight back with a turnover. Lucky penalty though, as I didn't think Henshaw had released on the ground. Going for the corner again - brave or foolish?

Foolish. Very average throw and lucky SA knock on rather than clear their lines.

Lucky - SA knock on after line-out fumble.
Scrum chance..
