Portugal weakened by losing Lima at centre, Georgia strengthened with return of first choice fly half from a long absence, so...

Georgia 27 - 19 Portugal
 
Had hoped this would be a good competitive game but the power difference between Georgia and Portugal looks like men vs boys,
Then silky hands for a fast paced backs try?
Could be a big scoreline here
 
Portugal were so fun last match. Hope they can get it together, but it's not looking good for them so far.

To overuse the phrase, I think Portugal already played their final. Theyre defending hard though
 
Nice try by Portugal. Good for the game, but Georgia should still win this fairly comfortably.
 
If there's head contact there (can't tell from that one angle) it's an easy red
 
Wow that was tough 1st half hopefully we come out the 2nd half and get to play our rugby
 
Argh, they were lining up for that try!

Fair play Portugal have woken up massively
