Wins for Springboks and All Blacks
rugby20 June:  New Zealand overcame France 14-10 in Wellington to level the series 1-1.  Ma'a Nonu settled All Blacks nerves in the first half after France's historic 27-22 win a week earlier in Dunedin before Cedric Haydens surged over in the second half but the All Blacks held out for the victory.  Meanwhile in Durban the Springboks had to cling on for victory against the British and Irish Lions.  After taking a 19-7 half-time lead, two second half tries from the Lions pegged back the reigning world champions but the home side did enough to cling on, much as the All Blacks did in Wellington against the French, and emerged victors by 26-21.
 
Lions hang on to deny Cheetahs
rugby06 June: The British and Irish Lions had a major scare before completing their third victory of the tour to South African on Saturday.  After racing into a 20-0 lead with tries from Stephen Ferris and Keith Earls, a second-half comeback brough the home side right back into the game before the tourists hung on for a narrow win by 26 points to 24.  Coach Ian McGeechan will have been pleased by the start but disappointed to surrender such a commanding lead with the First Test against the Springboks just two weeks away on 20th June.

Lions to face the Cheetahs
rugby05 June:  The British and Irish Lions continue their preparations for the First Test against the Springboks on 20 June with another warm-up match on Saturday, against the Cheetahs in Bloemfontein.  After a lacklustre performance in their opener against a Royal XV last weekend the Lions sprang to life running in 10 tries in an emphatic 74-10 win over the Golden Lions on Wednesday.  Against the Cheetahs there will be first games on the tour for Leigh Halfpenny, Luke Fitzgerald and Donncha O'Callaghan.  Tight-head prop Euan Murray, featured in our 03 June show, plays his first full game of the tour after coming on as a substitute in the win over the Golden Lions.
