Croket66, this is Kingsley Jones...In Russia, many of his decisions do not understand. I would like to believe that he tries to see as many players from different clubs, and on next ENC will play in major squard. Otherwise, without the best players we will be very difficult.
 
No he means to ask whether participating at the RWC 2011 has given rugby in Russia a boost?

On qualifying for 2015: the coming European Nations Cup 2012-14 will be a tough one. Only team in my book that's sure of qualifying is Georgia. Second / third place in the competition is gonna be contested by Russia, Spain and Romania.

Novokuznetsk 45-7 Bulava
Fili 12-7 Imperia!!! - line in this match: Fili win 10.0, Imperia win 1.1
Agro 13-45 Krasny Yar

Tom Fleming about game in Kazan:

- Tom, our congratulations. Could you please comment your game with Agro?

- The game with Agro was as I expected. On an artificial pitch fast open rugby was to be played. Only thing slowing it was simple errors by both sides unfortunately.

- What helped your team reach comfort score gap in first half?
- Attitude of the team. The loss last week and our previous performances helped motivate the team I think. We knew we haven't played our best rugby as a team. So our attitude changed and we took a step toward playing our best.

- What you think about opponent team - Agro?
- Agro as a team impressed. In there first year in competition looking at previous results I knew they would not be a walk over. They have a lot of heart. Once the team gels further as a unit I feel they will do very well.

- Yar won 3 games out of 4. But still Yar have some issues in game pattern. What current problems you could mention?
- Through the start of season we have had some injuries in a number of positions across the park. This has made it difficult to gain cohesion in combinations and patterns. Also the team was doing well in new Zealand but the Russian cup being cancelled and a month of no rugby didn't help. But there is no need to panic, Once back in Krasnoyarsk next week we will have time to assess our tour and make the necessary changes to remedy any problems.
