I notice on Nasi Manu's Instagram he was on the Tongan bus and in their sheds. Always wondered if he'd turn out for Tonga. Hope that's a sign he might be involved in their World Cup campaign. Too good of a player to play Test rugby.
That's pretty rough on every other no 8 to play the game
Who does he think he is? Luke Whitelock?

Not only did Georgia (12th in the World ranking) absolutely smash Canada (24th), look at that try in the 67th minute of the match!!
Personally, I really think that a country like Georgia should be included in future EOYTs. If we play Italy, we should play Georgia! Maybe start with the Maori ABs?
Hopefully they can get enough sponsorship to afford a full size set of goalposts now

I reckon he was insisting on the TMO just so everybody could see on the big screen how awesome that was.

And he was right. I love watching the Georgians play. Great crowds, great noise, and their commentators get pretty excited too.

Great win.
We play them Saturday.
If we get involved in an arm wrestle then it could go horribly wrong.
But Canada showed that pace & width will undo them quite easily.
Would love to see Wales play Georgia in Tbilisi.
Football boys just came back and said it was a cracking trip.
I've skied in Georgia and the people, hospitality, food & drink is superbOh and the skiing is top notch

That is either freaking awesome pow or you need some decent pow skis. I want to play there on my board. Nothing like the feeling of floating over powder.

Awesome powder, and I ski a narrower platform twin tip set up.
You've got to be in it to win it IMHO.
Bit different on a board. Then it's all about the float.

I was lucky to be up at Roundhill (NZ) one day when it would dump down for an hour then clear for a hour. Somehow the crew kept the t-bar going and whenever you headed out you could find your own pristine stash. On the board it was more like surfing as you could ride up the turns as you pushed out big sprays. Best mountain day I have ever had.

Nov 3
NZ Maori 51 v Canada 9Nov 11
Georgia 54 v Canada 22Am I mistaken in believing Georgia could rip Italy a new arsehole right now?

I'd be grateful if people can delay posting results at the end of this thread, as I haven't seen all the games I want to watch, yet. For the same reason, I'm avoiding some of the match threads.
I'll add the results to the first post of this thread on Wednesday, when I'll update the broadcast details for the upcoming weekend.
-
@stargazer really? You're asking people on a sports (predominantly rugby) forum, not to post scores of games? Really
If I don't want to know the score of a game, I know I need to avoid the internet/tv/radio and even texts/phone calls all together....
-
This is the ideal place to put scores and I came to this thread to see the other results of Nov internationals.
Please post scores in here!!!
@Gunner @Stargazer -
@hooroo Okay, but I'll post them in the first post anyway where everyone can find them if they can't be bothered to go through the whole thread. I was just following instructions made by moderators in June ... maybe they don't mind the spoilers now. I'll stay away from this thread until then.

You will need to remind me of what we said in June? Very short memory...

@stargazer while I admire what you are wanting to do, you do realize that if you open a thread, it normally takes you to the last post, so putting them at the start of a long thread isn't achieving anything as not many people go right back to the start of the thread over and over??
Well I don't anyway!

Mine goes from the top down now (since the re-boot). So I always have the original post at the top, and then directly under I have the most recent post. Is yours different?
-
@nepia yep, when I click on the thread name or the latest post it goes straight to the end.
How does it work for you on the TV & Movie threads then?
Maybe it's in settings?

Oh, I like mine as it is. It's the same in all threads. The first post I always see on the TV thread is your Lost one.

@nepia haha that sucks...mine is 20 posts per 'page' on the infinite scroll setting.
