[Toko_11]

Very disappointed with the absence of Jgenti, i had also hoped we would finally see khmaladze as a starting FH with kvirikashvili at SH.. also no shkinin for fullback kiassashvili is a most probable starter unless they decide to play khmaladze there.. which would be the best current lineup but disappointing for future perspective.

substitution in the squad Peikrishvili-Malaguradze out Chilachava-mikautadze in

 

[Toko_11]

so the squad for Geo-Jap confirmed
1. Davit Khinchagashvili(Some might think he's old but still as good as ever, a workhorse)

2. Shalva Mamukashvili(seems to have earned coaches trust. not easy competing with Natriashvili)

3. Ziro(The man looks like he's illegal in 21 countries wanted in 4) http://farm7.staticflickr.com/6227/6306176292_6afb40a60e_z.jpg at least looks like he is o.o

4. Giorgi Nemsadze(A quality player works hard does most of the dirty job, in a perfect world he would be a sub because he has no outstanding talent but we don't have anyone better atm)

5.Levan Datunashvili(Very strong when in form, the unsung hero of the team)

6. Shalva Sutiashvili(Same as 4)

7.Vito Kolelishvili(Don't mess with his haircut http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1-5PDZ6XfB8)

8.Godzilla(because of this guy whole opposition is on steroids and painkillers even before the game starts)

9.Irakli Abuseridze(mr. I'm tired lets attempt a totally useless box kick and let the other tired backs chase it)

10.Kvirikashvili(I pray he has his good cleats on)

11.Todua(well he's pretty good for a Georgian back)

12.Merab Sharikadze(last time was weak defensively. I expected zibibadze to start since he is in the form of his career but..)

13.Davit Kacharava(Easily our best back atm)

14. Irakli Machkaneli (not much to say very experienced)

15. Irakli Kiassashvili (man temporarily filling the vacant spot on the team)

16. Irakli Natriashvili(Surprising on the bench. Hooker)
17. Mikheil Nariashvili(on the bench as expected. Prop)
18. Davit Kubriashvili(Not in top shape, can handle Japanese props in his sleep though)
19.Vakhtang Maisuradze(he's like #4 except actually a sub)
20. Giorgi Begadze(exciting new face in the team, very hopeful about him. SH)
21.Giorgi Tkhilaishvili(same as 20)
22.Lasha Khmaladze(wanted to see him as FH or FB starter)
23. Tedo zibzibadze(likes to send people to hospital. Outside C)
