Jaba makes history with Georgia

Worcester Editorial 30th Jun, 2016 Updated: 19th Oct, 2016   0

WARRIORS hooker Jaba Bregvadze has finished his summer international duties with Georgia on a high as they completed their first-ever Pacific Islands tour unbeaten.

The 29-year-old, who made 17 appearances for Warriors last season, started all three games for ‘The Lelos’ as they enjoyed scooping two wins and a draw in the Southern Hemisphere.

Georgia, who are ranked 12th in the World Rugby Rankings, opened the tour with a 19-19 stalemate against James Johnston’s Samoa, before beating Tonga 23-20 and Tevita Cavubati’s Fiji 14-3.

Head coach Milton Haig said: “Fiji were a great challenge for us and it took a lot of hard work and self-belief.




“The tour has given us the chance to write history once again for Georgian Rugby.”
