Lions scrum coach Julian Redelinghuys says the scrum battle against the Dragons in their United Rugby Championship URC match on Saturday at Ellis Park will be between two desperate packs looking to make amends.
The Lions had a difficult time in the scrums against Edinburgh last weekend, while the Dragons endured a torrid time against the Stormers pack in their clash in Cape Town, so both teams will be gunning for an improved showing.
Despite their struggles in the scrums the Lions managed to walk away with a comfortable win over the Scottish side, but Dragons were badly impacted by their scrum failings as they fell to a tight loss to the Cape side.
