WORLD CUP QUALIFIER TEST RUGBY: NACRA

21.04.2012
Barbados v St Vincent and Grenadines in Bridgetown (WCQ Americas; NACRA R1 South)

Venue:

Referee: Alasdair Robertson (Cayman Islands)

Preview
St Vincent travels to Barbados for what would appear mission impossible. Defeated 3-34 in the first game, a home game, against Barbados, one would think playing Barbados in Barbados is a mighty hurdle to overcome.

I’d expect Barbados to win comfortably and progress to round 2.
