Today will see wins for NZ, Australia and Ireland. Although a singing crowd for the big fishes might create a bit of a stifling atmosphere for the Wallabies...but I doubt it. The Georgian forwards are not going to take a pasting in their match against Ireland - they were big against Argentina but I think the Irish have a storm brewing in their forwards after getting bossed around so often by Namibia in their previous match.
"Portugalled" by early afternoon I'm sorry to say...this is going to be the tournament's first 100 point match. This will not deflect from the pride that 'Os Lobos' will feel at representing their country, and, playing against New Zealand's finest. Oh well, what doesn't kill you makes you stronger...but this is Pro v Am stuff of the first order and any follower of rugby will be cringing at the prospect of such a mismatch. Alternatively, the gardening, shopping, washing the car beckons...
Enjoy the matches.
