Swys' Lions will not take Reds lightly

JOHANNESBURG – The once mighty Reds might be struggling to keep up with the other teams in the Super Rugby competition, but the Lions are reading nothing into their travails and are expecting a huge battle in Brisbane on Saturday.

Coach Swys de Bruin and his tourists are coming off a stunning 29-0 win against the Waratahs and are sitting pretty at the top of the table. The Reds, on the other hand, have won just three from eight matches and find themselves among the cellar-dwellers on the log.
