Georgia have faced two Six Nations teams so far and have not made life easy for either, although both matches have been lost. The Lelos ran Scotland close on a miserable night at Invercargill before going under in a tryless match, while England took advantage of a few defensive gaps to pile on six tries and win handily without playing overly well. Georgia’s success in this tournament will probably be measured on their result in this game, and it is one they have won more often than not in recent European nations Cup matches.
Romania started well against Scotland but the Oaks have fallen since then. Argentina repeatedly cut the backline up and only some careless handling prevented several more tries, while England made no race of the weekend match. Both times Romania was exposed out wide – which may not happen this time – but when the defence was turned the cover was not quick enough to prevent tries being scored down either flank. Romania, like Georgia, will measure their 2011 World Cup success by this result.- by http://www.sportal.com.au
