Lions target complete display in Currie Cup final
Cape Argus
|September 15, 2025
WHILE the Lions were purring as they booked a home Currie Cup final against the Griquas with a 67-19 mauling of the Boland Cavaliers, coach Mziwakhe Nkosi is slightly concerned about the dip in their level of play in the second half.
The dominant Lions led 41-5 at halftime, and while there was no danger of being overhauled, the error count from the home side was high in the second stanza.
“Tt was probably not our most accurate second half but as the game got scrappier, we got scrappier. But we take it,” Nkosi said, in his post-match media briefing. “In the first half I thought our set piece was good, I thought we scrummed well, while they tried to have one or two mauls that we stopped.
“Our maul functioned. When we did get direct, when we did get over the gain line we were good. When we tightened up, (flank Ruan) Venter and those guys coming through the middle, they were good.”
