Live: Lions facing Kangaroos challenge as Bombers search for first win

The Lions lead, but the Kangaroos aren’t going away.

What a fourth term we have coming up at Barossa Park!

What a mark from Cooper Trembath!

Jy Simpkin’s set-shot from ther arc had the accuracy but not the distance.

Never fear, said Kangaroos fans, as Trembath leapt high to take a breathtaking mark above the pack inside the goal square.

He nailed his shot from right in front, giving the Kangaroos hope close to three-quarter time.

Oscar Allen has three goals for the afternoon.

Marking on the lead inside the attacking 50, he kicked the Lions’ ninth major of the match to set up a 23-point lead over the Kangaroos.

Sam Draper joins the score sheet for the Lions.

The Lions created a turnover inside their defensive 50, before swiftly moving the ball up field.

Draper had one opponent to beat close to goal when the ball was bombed in, but he got his right boot to the pill to dribble through the Lions’ eighth major.

It’s a four-quarter game, obviously, but the Bombers remain alive against the Demons at half-time.

They trail by a single goal at main break.

The Kangaroos are staying in the contest at Barossa Park.

Luke Davies-Uniacke collects his first goal, as the Lions lead by 10 with eight minutes remaining in the third quarfter.

The Bombers are challenging the Demons late in the second quarter.

Having given up the lead earlier in the term, they reduce the Demons’ advantage to a goal via Isaac Kako’s major.

Lincoln McCarthy is as cool as a cucumber from a set-shot chance.

McCarthy’s goal creates a 16-point buffer on the scoreboard for the Lions midway through the third quarter.

The Bombers aren’t going to roll over, with Sam Durham kicking his first goal late in the second term.

The Bombers trail the Demons by two goals.

Following up on Kade Chandler’s major, the Demons kick another.

Brody Mihocek does the damage for the Dees and they now lead the Bombers by 19 points.

Just when it seemed the Bombers woke up from a post-quarter-time slumber with Archer May’s goal, the Demons provide a reply through Kade Chandler.

It’s the Demons up by 13.

Back-to-back goals from the Lions puts them in front by seven points early in the third quarter.

Zac Bailey was first and he was then followed by Kai Lohmann.

Archer May shows the range of his skills to kick the Bombers’ first goal of the second quarter.

Xavier Duursma found May, who took a contested mark inside the Bombers’ attacking 50.

The angle on goal wasn’t helpful but a banana kick did the job for May, who claimed his opening major of the match.

The third quarter is underway between the Kangaroos and Lions.

Let’s see if the Kangaroos can hold their lead throughout the term, or whether the Lions step up and take control of proceedings.

Tom Sparrow gives the Demons a third straight goal in the second quarter.

They seem to be moving into overdrive as they establish a 14-point lead over the Bombers.

Kysaiah Pickett … just brilliant.

Moments after showing blistering speed to chase down Isaac Kako and force a turnover inside the defensive 50, Pickett takes a mark and slots the set-shot to put the Demons in front by eight points.

An amazing display on both sides of the ball.

The Demons capitalise on a turnover inside the Bombers’ defensive 50, allowing Max Gawn the chance to kick a goal.

Amid traffic, Gawn doesn’t fluff his lines to put the Demons ahead by two points.
