    Georgia's defensive work outside of set play is remarkably good. They've got some individual talent too.

    Biggest difference between the two is the Welsh backline runs onto good passes and makes good decisions.

    I suspect after the week they've had, they'll be happy to get the win, put the controversy behind them and look at the next opponent.

      They're a good team.

      Could easily knock over Fiji.

      Would rather see them than Italy in the 6N.

      Happy to make it 7N

          @antipodean Yes having two fatties at the back of their lineout and a slow 7 in Gogordze got exploited by the Welsh.

            @antipodean I tuned out before halftime expecting a 70pt blowout, and returned to see 36-14. (Then that last try by North - great feet and hands by Williams.)

            I suppose a win's a win, like England yesterday, but will Wales be happy to have conceded 14?

                      @Disgusted-of-TW Scrum penalty where the Georgian 9 went quickly (not really near the mark but however) and had the Welsh defence backpedaling before being stopped 5 short. They then scored after a few pick and goes close to the line.

                        A few of those bench Georgians made a serious impact. They should be starting. Especially the halfback.

                        Nice to see Welsh use the ball and play some attractive open footy.

                          I think the Welsh have the best backline of the 6N.

                          As @MiketheSnow points out, they'd be better for the competition than Italy has been.

                            6 out of 10
                            Some glimpses of fast paced, accurate first phase ball
                            Wales look fit
                            Fell away at times waiting for things to happen rather than creating opportunities
                            Hopefully Owens isn't too badly crocked
                            Gatland has a genuine selection conundrum in the second and back rows

                            Georgia never gave up fair play
                            They should stuff Uruguay and could easily beat Fiji off the back of a dominant scrum
