OTHER TEST RUGBY GAMES THIS WEEKEND

With such a vast list of test rugby games to cover this weekend I have simply run out of time.

Those not covered are..
Ukraine v Georgia in Tblisi (ENC 1A)
This game has no bearing on the result of the 2012 ENC competition, unless Ukraine does the unthinkable and wins! Originally scheduled to be played in Ukraine, the Ukrainians obliged Georgia by playing this game away. The Georgian side is about to depart for their North American tour.

Prediction: Should be an easy win for Georgia even without their top players. Georgia by 30 points

England Counties v East Africa in Kampala
I have sought clarification as to the status of this game. It is possible that East African players could be awarded a test ‘cap’ for this game. The Counties side had a comfortable 66-13 win over the Ugandan Barbarians on Wednesday. They should win this one as well.

Prediction: England Counties by 25 points

Bahamas v Bermuda in Nassau (WCQ Americas; NACRA North R2
This match should decide who will face Guyana in the final and thus the right to play the CONSUR B winner in September, who will then face Brazil.

Prediction: Bermuda by 7 points

And finally Denmark will go to ENC 2B after Slovenia forfeited their playoff match.
