*******************

Despite a 31-point winning margin and 6 tries, England will not feel at all happy about this match and you can bet your bottom dollar that Martin Johnson must be secretly fuming at the ill-dicipline and overall incompetance of the England side.

If Georgia had a kicker who could slot the penalties, the score would have been very different.

That said, it’s 5 Log points in the bag for England.
