Hodge failed again.

That’s got to be his confidence shot for match clinches

Georgian forwards up for it but don’t think I’ve ever seen a back line so utterly petrified of their opposite men.

Aye, just look at the size difference between Georgia 14 and his opposite man Nadolo!

That bounce was evil. He was through if it sat up even a little bit.

It was a brilliantly executed move. Very unlucky, and so much space.

It's on Amazon if you've got it. Otherwise I imagine the usual sites like rugbybstream.me will have it.

Fiji are showing that the laboured play of Georgia's tier 1 opponents this autumn was very much a choice and fans really should demand better from teams; they're in the entertainment industry after all.

10/10 for the commentator dealing withe names of players from both sides!

Georgia 7, if he doesn't have a French or English club deal yet, is certainly putting himself in the shop window. Second eye-catching carry through some massive Fijians.

Tbf, would we know if he was getting it wrong?

Seriously though, credit where it's due, sounds like he's nailing it.

Such a good tap tackle.

We need to start getting some points on the board from this pressure

Something to be said about Ireland who don't appear to be about of neutral, but the overall carrying, carry support and and actual clearouts have been very very good.

Passing has generally been decent, bar some hiccups.
Jaco and Taylor making a big difference in that department.

Not even sure that is a deliberate knock on. Took McAki's hand first?

Stupid fucking penalty after stupid fucking penalty. Why on Earth are we doing it, the only pressure we have been under is from our own fucking stupid penalties

The commantary is awful. They seem surprised Ireland are playing a game kicking it a lot. Aye lads have you watched the last few years of Irish rugby. It's what they're good at!

Idiotic penalties, just like the first half in Italy. Thought the yellow card was harsh.

Would love to see Huw Jones come on with Taylor in the centre
