[QUOTE="amz, post: 908667, member: 39697"] I watched both games of Canada and USA and I was surprised negatively by Canucks. Canada hosted a test which was a good preparation for Repechage basically in a cornfield. I get that RC wants to spread rugby in all areas but surely they could have done better than that. It was disrespectful for own players and for opposition too to play in such conditions. Many players were rested and I feel that it was a bad repetition for November and also disrespectful for own team to not give them the occasion to get together before a big tournament which will decide RWC participation. I've seen moments of Canada which reminded me of social rugby level...I really hope somebody else grab the chance at Repechage and go to RWC, Canada is consistently butchering tests and occasions and really I don't think they deserve to go further. Germany is not much under Russia as playing level so I expect to give them a good run for their money. Congrats to Russia for playing the best they could considering their missing players. USA performance was huge but granted Scots handed them the occasion by playing a very young side. There are few good players in US ranks but I maintain my opinion, eagles are far of beating likes of France, England, even in their best day. [/QUOTE]
