Seems like the match officials have corrected that early mistake to award the 1st 3 Georgian points, during halftime… because the scroreboard now reflects only 1 penalty and the converted try.

They are like France in many respects… it depends which Fiji team turns up on the day…

That’s probably why such a lot of their players do well playing in France.
