Pleasing end to the first half. Wales doing some good stuff with the ball and even spoiling some line outs which I don't think they've done since the 70s.

A bit difficult to assess Wales' performance on attack really. What can you judge about them given that defense? Their own defensive line seems solid at least, they're not getting murdered by the pack.

Bit harsh on Georgia, when he gave them a pen for Wales collapsing the maul Wales got no YC.

Good solid chunk of defending from Georgia now, did they all remember how to do it over half time

I'm pleased to see the hairdryer works just as well in Georgian. Also please that there somehow haven't been any injuries, I was expected a bloodbath.

Yep, we apparently decided to do things the hardest possible way this half. Great thinking from Georgia on that last try.

Good win for Wales in the end. Georgia put up some stiff defence in the second half.

I am proud of my large adopted sons' second half performance. Beating Wales was always going to be a tall order.

It is a record win for Wales over Georgia and New Zealand beat them 43-10 in the last world cup so not a bad result.

Just finished watching the Wales-Georgia game and most of the Ireland-Scotland game (couldn't watch live as my son decided to to wait for the world cup to start before he could be born). Wales looked good to start, but liked like they got sloppy after the first 20 minutes. I didn't watch my adopted country England's game, but sounded like it went as expected.

Ali Price is going home with a foot injury but don’t worry Henry Pyrgos is coming to replace him.

How can you give a yellow for not wrapping when the reason for not wrapping is the tackler unintentionally rendered himself unconscious.
