A nice article about the birth of the USSR national team (just in 1974!), with an awesome opening photo
https://rugger.info/news/36112

Six teams participating in that tournament: Romania's Grivica Rosie, Warsaw Skra, Nada Split, a sort of Czechoslovak national team, the USSR clubs select, the Moscow select.
In that first core of a national team there were not georgian players and there were a lot of Leningrad players.
According to Rugbyinternational.net USSR played the first test match three weeks after that tournament, defeating Czechoslovakia 28-0 in Leningrad on August 31, 1974
