northernscum Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 This lot are the current world champions? Their handling and passing in the majority of that 1st half was even worse than Scotland in the 1st half of the USA game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fringo Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 I think they are treating it as a training game and trying moves but making lots of mistakes. They've still managed to score 4 tries though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fringo Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 My Georgia +64 points handicap at Evens is looking good so far... I've already cashed in. I think NZ will have had the HT shake up from the coach (which northernscum alluded to) and the smaller teams also tend to leak a lorry load in the last 20 mins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duncan Blackheart Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 My Georgia +64 points handicap at Evens is looking good so far... No way! If I'd seen that, I'd have been right in. Good bet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thewolf_1980 Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 Maybe I shouldn't have cashed out. What did you get for cashing out? NZ have been pretty awful in truth. Surely my bet's up now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thewolf_1980 Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 It would have to be the biggest capitulation ever for you to lose out now! It was one of those 'looks too good to be true' type bets, which I normally still get wrong! Georgia are one of the better 2nd tier teams and don't tend to get completely humped so nice to see my instincts be correct for a change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest allyc Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 Think there should exist some form of play off between the 6 nations wooden spooners and the likes of Georgia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prefer a second tier, '6 nations shield' with limited possibility of promotion i.e. some hefty safeguards built in, the kind that stopped East Stirlingshire getting booted out of the Scottish league a while back. Inevitably Scotland would end up getting relegated otherwise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thewolf_1980 Posted October 3, 2015 Share Posted October 3, 2015 I think the narrowness of the defeats for the '2nd tier teams' will put pressure on the 6N committee to open up to the likes of Georgia and perhaps even USA/Canada. I definitely think some form of two-tiered structure with promotion and relegation would be healthy for the overall progress of the sport. The likes of Japan seem rather isolated too.

Super Rugby next year has a team based in Japan - good move, I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
