Wow, great try from Uruguay

BIG miss!

 

[Ferrari333SP]

Great scrum, followed by some great pick and go - try time Georgia

 

[bushytop]

Those Georgians look a fit side to be fair.

 

[Ferrari333SP]

Haig has trained them well - a good chunk of the players playing in France helps too

You could see Georgia having a good shot at Fiji at this point, based on this performance

Great box kicks by the Georgian scrum half

It's a match up I've been looking forward to since the draw tbh... still can't pick a winner.

Haig is probably saving Mamuka for that match, I'm guessing - he knows the team has a great chance at beating them

 

[bushytop]

Great work from the hooker... good player him.

Fiji v Georgia was always going to be the 2023 WCQ in this group.

I hope Uruguay hang on in there for the last 20.

 

[Ferrari333SP]

Ahhhh, Mamuka is finally out on the field. Do I watch the rest of the match, or go to bed....1:42am right now

Your not staying up for Wales vs Australia?

Definitely. It'll be an interesting contrast of styles.

Although surely Fiji can't be as bad as they were against Uruguay again? For starters, they'll know that they can't play a second XV!

Arata is gun. Hope he gets a club gig in Europe.

Both scrummies are good to be fair.

If there was any doubt about the heat/humidity, check out Milton Haig's shirt!

Pale blue on a hot day... school boy error!

 

[BPM]

Indeed. Although he'd have been soaked whatever the colour!

The Georgian power just too hot to handle for the urugians and with the 4day turnaround the fatigue clearly showing , I'd love to see Georgia in the 6 nations but don't really want to lose Italy either can't we make it the 7 nations
