Impressive 'never say die' attitude from the Lions.

The most beautiful comeback of this season

[@nathijames]

What a comeback by Lions

[@plutoniumnitrate1201]

Quade cooper.....pathetic attempt to let the ball run out of the touch line

[@timoteojuans1964]

Plutonium Nitrate he almost stepped out when he scored his try too. Guy is way too casual. Thinks he's playing touch.

[@BlindmanPepperspray]

Rebels sure is playing in last season form, Blowing a huge lead. Seriously how did you blow a 28 point Lead in 30 minutes?

[@itshardmakinganamefo]

Even worse. They blew that lead in 15 minutes when the scores became 33-33

[@luthoralushe9831]

Lions comeback has to be commended though...

[@d-zul1739]

Quade cooper should have not let them concede an easy try

[@emmanuelardron3231]

Sums up Australian rugby.

[@MrHydrent]

Thank you Cooper. Always a good thing when he's in the opposing team.

[@vuyohashe2101]

What a game!! I was so awesome to watch it live. Sharks you up next!! It's going to be an evening you will never forget.

[@JenkiJ]

Say what ever you want about egon seconds, the rebels’ discipline was appalling. High tackles, offsides, side entries. They were a disgusting team today and deserved to lose.

[@bennierheeder7015]

Jamie Jenkinson it’s hard to say what was more appalling. The rebels discipline or Egon Seconds handling of the ill discipline. He is not super rugby quality.

[@andrewmarkmostert7061]

I agree 1st half he missed so much The rebels only got momentum because of him making the mistakes but also lions made some dumb mistakes. But egon seconds can ref on this level if it werent for the lions up the game and didnt play the ref but the ball thry would've lost a game that they werent suppose to. Thanx egon seconds

[@bennierheeder7015]

L JB you can hate as much as you want on Elton. Some of it maybe even a little justified. However, saying Egon Seconds handling of the game was fine, is asinine, to say the least. You bring all your rugby “knowledge “ to null, when you back this refs performance on the day. Have a lekker dag.

[@iwazhere7077]

Good to see the Aussie sides are competing again. If they could cut out the ball tampering &such, that would be great 👍🏻😉

[@alphatav3733]

It's over confidence from Quade Cooper that causes him to not think clearly and do imbecilic things at times like today. He is a gifted baller, but has an undisciplined nature.

[@timrogers2045]

Similar to Danny Cipriani for the English. Maverick temperaments both.

[@MichaelEdlin542]

True, yet both quality players on their day!

[@devonnewman8444]

I guess the Rebels suits him then :)

[@Karma-qt4ji]

@@MichaelEdlin542 On their day they are brilliant. But both possess the ability to lose you the game as well.

[@MichaelEdlin542]

@@Karma-qt4ji Absolutely!

[@elijahmohlala9955]

Absolute Masterclass by Quade Cooper, first that 10 on 10 Violence, followed by mastered basics of passing and following the ball ( supporting running to finish off one of the best team tries i've seen this year).

[@ethan7484]

greatest comeback so far.. AWESOME!!

[@Formakiwi]

4:38 that's why Quade's been out of selection favour for the Wallabies for years. Plenty of talent, but lazy and arrogant with it.

[@siviweottoxhegwana5315]

This is so true, I fully agree with this statement👍

[@Ese96Agoaye]

Play to the whistle!

[@roryalcock4801]

I know everyone hates Quade but jeez man give him some credit. He's been solid in defence and brilliant in attack this season

[@timoteojuans1964]

Rory Alcock no one doubts his talent. But he is aloof. He was like a centimeter from stepping out on the try he scored too.

[@roryalcock4801]

@@timoteojuans1964 I guess but everyone focuses on his few mistakes rather than many pieces of briliance

[@thomasderuiter6584]

Well done lions from a huge fan from wales. Awesome comeback

[@warfit3716]

A game of two halves - well done Lions

[@corriedebeer799]

I was still impressed by the rebels, they look much better this year than the brumbies / tahs.

[@epatongan]

This is why it important to have captain that rise to the occasion and make choices that will benefit the team in this game. Cool heads always prevail.

[@juckoosaurus]

great fight from the lions bit holy crap the rebels really did blow a huge lead no one should blow

[@hendrikbreed7253]

Never say die..

[@SupaSeb09]

2nd try by the rebels has to be try of the week, maybe even of the month.

[@saveriofontana4562]

Yes. I agree.

[@toniocartonio572]

Can't believe qc did that tackle 1:04

[@Fayomitz]

This is my first time watching rugby. Was that a huge comeback or was it like a side change where it is easier for one of the teams to score?

[@vik4741]

Huuuuuge comeback

[@FergusHodgson]

Such a major comeback like this is very rare.

[@MHaziq-qy2bu]

Nice choke by the Rebels!

[@somanytakennames]

The Lions pulling a Scotland right there.

[@andrewmarkmostert7061]

Well first half the rebels scored some soft tries and quick mistakes of the lions. Egon seconds did make some questionable decisions but 2nd half the lions change the game and up the tempo and let the ball do the talking rebel. With the rebels discipline from the start of the game they didnt deserve to win. Well done to the lions with a awsome come back and this with good character Lions4ever

[@tetapuaroberts1502]

Hard luck rebels looking strong

[@kevinrtres]

NO,please! It was Lions making simple mistakes and giving away soft tries in the first half that allowed the rebels to look good. The second half simply confirmed who was the better team on the field.

[@asanterikhotso2281]

Amazing game

[@dvoob]

at 5:10 marx clearly participates in the tackle and never releases. Ball carrier was never given a chance to set the ball and should be a penalty against the lions rather than a try going the other way...

[@dylancarpenter7902]

The rebels played like England did in the second half, well played to Scotland and the lions. Clearly wanted it more 😂

Is it just me, or does Quade Cooper seem the most arrogant rugby play around?

[@dchegu]

Its a sad day when good rugby is being played in an empty stadium.

[@corriedebeer799]

Probably had 20k people watching and still looked empty, ellis park is really big.

[@josh_adams_fit]

Why's the stadium so empty

[@kevinrtres]

Cost of tickets and harrasment when looking for parking. Crime. Why go there when you can sit around the braai at home for the same money?

[@divad8727]

Wow

[@kevinrtres]

Great escape by the Lions! Next week they'll be tested by the nifty and swift passing of the Sunwolves. Those leaky gaps in defence will be put to the test. So watch out Lions, you might end up with your tail between the legs!

[@f1j11slander4]

Just as bad as england second half game against Scotland

[@plutoniumnitrate1201]

The lions comeback can be attributed towards the 2 yellow cards and had that not happened, they would have lost.

[@bennierheeder7015]

Plutonium Nitrate should have been 4 yellows. Appalling discipline from the rebels.

[@andrebeetge5928]

And the rebels should of got a red card much earlier in the game, they were warned several times for ill discipline and got away with it, the Lions definitely deserved to win. To come back from 5 - 33 is a great win for sure!!!

[@FergusHodgson]

Look at that empty stadium. Super rugby just isn't what it used to be.

[@iwazhere7077]

Fergus, have you ever been in Johannesburg on a Saturday? I support my team, but if I feel the need to go muck about in a warzone, I'll play Call of Duty

[@vik4741]

@@iwazhere7077 oh stop lying. This "warzone" thing you speak of is just a dumb excuse. If there's a big local derby, people do go to the stadium, so where's this warzone that you speak of then?? The super rugby in all countries is not doing well with filling up the stadiums. They need to rethink their format and find ways to bring people to the stadium

[@JPTheron88]

it is hard to compare the number of people to most other stadiums, Ellis Park is massive where as the NZ stadiums are small 16 000 @Ellis Park seems empty whereas in NZ the stadium looks Full. Ellis Parks capacity 62 567, Christchurch stadium capacity 18 600.
