Team added to the thread start

 

[jabali]

Well, Pumas will take this game seriously but inside, honestly, they don't think on the possibility of loosing it. I'm glad that Tati Phelan (Pumas' coach) finally took Martin Rodriguez off. He is a great player but, Phelan took too long to realize that he is performing horribly as a kicker this world cup.
Pumas will show a more agile team and will try to avoid forward contact as much as possible.

 

[Seaton]

Some odd things happening for me on TRF...

I, and most of Scotland ( Celtic 'fans' GTF), will be looking for one of two results.

Georgia win, the most prefered.
Argentina BP win, the most probable.

Either of these after our 6 try win over England will see us through.

But seriously, immense opportunity for Argentina to grab top spot to avoid New Zealand should England fail to beat Scotland, being a day later is great for them.

 

[Toko_11]

We are going to win this game if our defense is as good as it was against Scotland and our offense is as good as it was against England. for that we are going to need match fit Kubriashvili and Zirakashvili. Also Shvelidze or Giorgadze as a prop. and Kvirikashvili with his good cleats. and a ref who won't be on either side... boy a lot of things have to go right for us to take this :mellow:.

Come on Lelos lets go out in style !!!

 

[bluealess]

This is a Top 14 derby! :lol:

Very attractive game if you like scrums!

I bet something like 35-14 (4 tries vs 2)

 

[Toko_11]

squad announced:
1.Vasil Kakovin,
2.Akvsenti Giorgadze,
3.David Zirakashvili,
4.Levan Datunashvili,
5.Vakhtang Maisuradze,
6.Giorgi Chkhaidze,
7.Viktor Kolelishvili,
8.Mamuka Gorgodze,
9.Irakli Abuseridze,
10.Lasha Khmaladze,
11.Alexander Todua,
12.Tedo Zibzibadze,
13.David Kacharava,
14.Lekso Gugava,
15.Malkhaz Urjukashvili


Reserves:
2.Jaba Bregvadze,
1.Goderdzi Shvelidze,
6.Giorgi Nemsadze,
5.Ilia Zedginidze,
9.Bidzina Samkharadze,
10.Merab Kvirikashvili,
10/12.Lasha Malaguradze.



A lot of unexpected changes in the squad... first and most noticeable change is Lasha Khmaladze playing as our fly half instead of Meko Kvirikashvili... I'm really worried about this experiment, not sure how good Khmaladze is at n10 haven't seen many of his games.

as for the other changes I don't think it will make whole lot of difference. Viktor Kolelishvili will play instead of Basilaia who was outstanding during the whole tournament, but Kolelishvili is also a very reliable flanker/N8.

Malkhaz Urjukashvili plays as a fullback and will probably do the kicking something he has done well throughout his career.

Kakovin will be our prop sounds good enough.
Lekso Gugava at 14 is just as good as anyone else... except machkhaneli who is miles ahead of everyone as long as our wings go.

and we will finally get to see how Lasha Malaguradze and Giorgi Nemsadze look like.

overall very interesting I wonder if it will work out for us.

I really hoped Kubriashvili could get fit until this game but i guess its not meant to be what a shame he barely got to play on this world cup and i was looking forward to seeing his performance the whole time sad me

 

[keress]

ahh some news in squad ,it's good and reliable squad,i liked this)).
Go leloss Gooo !!!!

 

[jabali]

Go Pumas! Scotland had the same kind of defeat in 2 consecutive games. Dominating until minute75 and letting it go for a try at the end. Argentina needs only one point to be in the QF. Even loosing to Georgia (thing that will never happen) by less than 7 points, we are in. GO PUMAAAAAAASSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Argentina 33 (4)- Georgia 13 (1), that is my bet

 

[keress]

(thing that will never happen)

okeya)))) , let's wait for the future )))))
of course Argentina is favourite in this match,but we don't give up))

 

[jabali]

, let's wait for the future......but we don't give up))

Well put. Nobody expect Georgia to give up. That is what will help Argentina to score. Georgia will come with all its power, and Argentina will play with the backs and run the ball.

Talk to you tomorrow Keress

Of course, it is clear)
This match will be big experience for us))

sorry for my bad english )))

 

[tittlemouse]

Would be so ironic now for Georgia to beat Argentina after all the discussion and fear over the England Vs Scotland match with the loser going home to be false and not have any impact.

But yeah being serious now I expect Argentina to win and get the bonus point.

 

[Seaton]

Robinson must get in touch with the Georgian camp, promise them an entire 3 match series next year summer if they beat the Argies.

 

[bagrata]

If we will win, who will move to the next level?

 

[TRF_Olyy]

If Georgia win and Argentina got 0 bonus points then England and Scotland are through
If Georgia win and Argentina get 1 bonus point then it comes down to points difference, I think - in which case Argentina go through (unless they get hammered, but get the 4try BP in which case Scotland would go through)

 

[LittleGuy]

If we will win, who will move to the next level?

Depends if you win by more than 7 and hold Argentina to less than four tries than Scotland will. If you win narrowly or Argentina scores four tries they are through.

 

[Toko_11]

just Let us win. i couldn't care less who goes through thb. everyone had a chance.


I just saw kubriashvili during the anthems he's in the lineup!
