5 Lions stars who failed to perform in the second test – and who should replace them

#2. Duhan van de Merwe

Guardian 3/10: “Too much emotional investment for him, perhaps, but he was lucky to escape censure for one tackle and could have no complaint about the yellow card.”

Rugby Pass 5/10: “A mind-boggling brain fade to soccer kick Cheslin Kolbe off his feet, having already got away with a potentially cardable follow-through tackle that ended PSDT’s evening early.”

Joe 5/10: “Made one carry and stuck one tackle in defence. Not the same player we saw in the warm-ups.”

Telegraph 4/10: “Launched as a weapon, but lacked control. Saw yellow after a clumsy trip on Kolbe and probably lucky to escape sanction for a late tackle on Du Toit”

Wales Online 3/10: “Yellow carded for a daft trip on Cheslin Kolbe in a benign area of the field, harassed under the high ball and couldn’t make the yardage he has previously.”

Balls 3/10: “Too many errors for this level and a yellow card. Hard to see him keeping his place for the third test. “

Replacement: Josh Adams
