@MiketheSnow What can you tell us about the two new young loose forwards Morgan and Macleod? Their stats suggest mobility over size?

Both have been very good at club level.
Morgan has been good so far for Wales
Very strong over the ball. Good ball carrier.
Macleod is arguably the closest thing to Faletau. His opportunity to prove it.

MacLeod has played very little rugby at all in the last year due to injury & hasn't played at 8 for a few years (and then only as cover).
Strange selection by Pivac here with Moriarty, Wainwright and Botham all omitted from the squad for this autumn despite being far better than Macleod at 8.

Agreed
Botham should have been in the squad
@MiketheSnow said in Wales v Georgia:
Pivac doing his best Foster impression.
Hope you have not been unduly influenced by the Fern!
Why is Wales playing in a black jersey and ugly green shorts? Red jerseys don't clash with Georgia's white.

It's a bit bizarre, isn't it?
We have so many decent strike runners but continually fail to get any of them into space.
No creativity at all.

Awful isn't it.
Next Welsh attack coach should be a league man
Backline creativity and penetration in league is light years ahead of this shit
@Catogrande Looks like they will celebrate all the way home too, good for them.
What a great second half of rugby and Georgia played really well to win that..
Wales will be gutted but what a great advert for the global game
Truly awful by Wales in every aspect. Looks like they didn't have a coaching team behind them at all.
Glad we lost to be honest.
Google is joining in...

Reckon Wales could do with Warburton right now
Listening to him after the match and he talks a lot of common sense. Hopefully the WRU are talking to him.

Wow! Wonderful for Georgia. Time to make it the 7 Nations?
I know it probably won't happen, but it would be great if a tour of NZ, Oz or SA, playing teams like the AB XV could be organised. Would benefit them and the game hugely.
@Victor-Meldrew Why not just relegate Wales and keep it as the Six Nations?

I like that idea a lot.

Try playing your neighbours first
@MiketheSnow They are our neighbours
I'd have to compare the Georgian line-ups, but they narrowly lost to Samoa, last week. The week before that, Samoa suffered a big loss to ... Italy.

Need the European leagues to agree first I guess.
Hats off to Sth Africa for inviting them, Zimbabwe & Kenya into the Currie Cup.
