[QUOTE="anderton46, post: 860931, member: 74657"] As others have said I feel the game was lost in the forward battle,which was surprisingly one sided. Our backs held up their hands and kept is close and played well. Unfortunately I just don't feel any combination of forwards is going to be enough to beat the AB's. The lions have big strong forwards who are good at set pieces, and they have skillful open field styled forwards too. Unfortunately the AB's players tend to have both these skill sets. How do the lions win the next test? They make a lot less errors, convert a higher % of chances and hope the AB's are having a bit of an off day. IMO. [/QUOTE]
