Western Province are about to get the second half underway. I look forward to an exciting half of rugby.

At the half time break Western Province lead, although majority of the play took place in their defensive area. The Lions showed great composure and ball retention, however seemed to lack the creative spark to break through a solid and well drilled Western Province defense.

The Lions will look to have a bit more incision in the second half, where as Western Province may be satisfied with relying on their fast breaks off the turnover. We'll see if that is true in the second half.
