# Rugby: The Lions beat Connacht 33-21 at Ellis Park on Saturday, and in the process all but secured their first playoff place in the United Rugby Championship. The victory also moved them temporarily into third on the log, with hopes remaining of a possible home quarterfinal as well. But a lot can still happen as their last two rounds in the competition see visits to Limerick and Dublin to face Munster and Leinster, respectively.
