Battle of the Nations - Live steel fighting

I'd like to see Italy do well, mostly because I think they're the underdogs here.

Ukraine wins. 18-0

Blow out!

Sorry, Meri.

Well, there's a reason I said they were the underdogs.

[DontSayBanana]

Oh, shit.  We're screwed.

France vs Belarus next. USA vs Russia after.

Gonna get ugly now.

[Martinus]

Well, Poles who engage in this shit are mainly weird Catholic integrists (the Polish equivalents of the likes of Txini) so hope they get their asses kicked.

Speaking of ugly... that's a LOT of people on the ground.  From both teams.  Good to see the French putting up a fight.

[Grey Fox]

This is weird.

So, what's the rules for this?

Beat them to the ground. Once down, you don't get to get back up.

Pretty much that's it.

Belarus won that one. USA vs Russia next.

Yeah, from what I heard about from last year, they're all pretty much a bunch of thugs.

[merithyn]

Prepare for things to get really really ugly really really quickly.

Love the Russian soundtrack.

[DontSayBanana]

Everything went better than expected.

Seriously, though, that last guy was a trooper- holding his own while being whacked by 4 Russians.  Did you catch a score for this one, Meri?

EDIT: 0-17, Russia wins.
