World Cup: Greetings from Guildford! Canada v Scotland.

Sneaked onto a laptop here in the Media Centre. Great atmosphere in opening game, where the Canadians are eating the Scots alive. 25-0 at half-time, three tries from Canada's Marchak, Mervin and Gallo, Scots forwards being hammered. Stunning handling, fast breaks - its a great game to watch (unless you are a Scot ) - shame that Sky won't be showing any Canadian games!

Crowd growing gradually around Pitch 2, where the game is being played. About doubled in size so far - maybe 500 or so (though I am no judge on this).

Overall the venue is good, pitches in excellent condition, but it lacks seating in a major way, especially on Pitch 2! And if you are thinking of coming the car park is a 20 minute walk away, so be warned about that!

But must go. Will add a few more posts today as the opportunity arises.
