For the second consecutive week Western Province relinquished their position of power and surrendered tamely in the Currie Cup.

This time the Lions staged an unlikely comeback at Ellis Park and somehow fashioned a 22-19 win when not much appeared to be going for them.

That burgeoning confidence was very much in evidence when right wing Stean Pienaar took a quick tap and caught the Western Province defence napping with a converted try that tied up the scores after 71 minutes. Earlier penalties, and they were entirely predictable, stacked up against the Lions. Their recidivism was partly self inflicted but it was at scrum time Western Province applied the squeeze.
