You would think if you are importing a saffa lock, you'd at least go for tall timber!

I wonder what the props for Russia do as their day jobs? Maybe some sort of problem solving.

Easy win for the home side. Putin's boys get the big stage for their first game. Big audience to watch them both do it.

What's not to like?

I for one am disgusted by the lack of diversity on that Russian team. Especially in comparison to the metropolitan melting pot of diversity that is the Japanese side

One of their props Kirill Gotovtsev has an interesting backstory.

There is a bloke who's name doesn't end in "ov", "ev", ski" or "ko".

The Georgians have a guy whose name doesn't end in "adze" or "vili" which is unusual.

All of a sudden living on the left side of the ditch is kinda ok ...

[canefan]

Free feed is a couple of minutes behind tv1. I thought TV1 was only showing AB games and only one delay?

[Bones]

@booboo even better on the opposite side of the ditch. Never a better excuse for pre-noon beersies.

Thought Russia would have been worth a flutter, first half w/ 18.5 point start. Aside from 2011 the host has always been a bit slow getting out of the gate in these opening fixtures. Big stage, nerves etc..

Two of my favourite anthems.

Time for stadiums to stop micing (sp) the players and let the pros and the crowd do the singing.
