Ah Losty Dublin, you win my vote for charitable services to the boards.ie rugby fraternity. Good man yerself! There's certainly some eclectic games on offer, Turkey v Azerbaijan is no doubt a grudge match (but maybe Turkey rest their top XV ahead of sat's crunch match with slovakia...), and Andorra v Denmark...

Just noticed in the listings that on UTV at 11.05pm there's a program on the English RWC03 team and where they are now. It goes on for an hour and a half so could be good.

I'd actually like to see Russia versus the US Eagles but to me, the pick of the weekend is probably Italy and Argentina while Georgia and Samoa will be interesting as a physical game.

Argentina are going backwards at a rate of knots, it's really quite disappointing. They need to regroup majorly before 4N 2014. Georgia have become a very solid Tier 3 nation, could easily see them finishing 3rd in a RWC pool, although they haven't qualified yet I think.

5 years ago, Italy would have been wiped out by the Puma's; this year will see a more balanced match between the two. It will not be pretty unless you like an 8-9 game, which I do.

I agree in relation Georgia; they are the stand out of the T3 countries and they seem to have their development system sussed out quite well.
