Italy not dealing very well with playing in the 6N even after 20 years. They literally add nothing to the tournament apart from the odd upset win which then causes clowns to say stupid shit like they've arrived! and forza Italy etc, but the following game or year is just invariably the same turgid shite in front of a half empty stadium. But sure, "pinting in Rome" makes it all worth it :bimbo:

Really? I didn’t think it was anywhere near red. Would t have been surprised with just a penalty

The welsh players tackle position was very high and upright so wasn't surprised it was reduced to a yellow.

This could get messy for Italy now. They lost the game in the first 20 mins.

Much like an infinite number of monkeys tapping on an infinite number of typewriters for an an infinite number of years will eventually produce the full works of Shakespeare. One day Italy will score the perfect try from their own 22.

They pulled it off against Samoa straight from the kick off and think they can do it every time with no repercussions when it doesn't work

Watching Italy is a bit like Saints, entertaining but you don't know what they are going to do next.

If the scrummie was blindfolded he would have produced a better pass then.

As frustrating as Italy's errors have been, they've created more in attack in 1 game than the Fre backline has the entire 6N.

Probably four cast iron tries Italy butchered. Hard to have sympathy

Italy shot themselves in the foot so many times all they've got left are ragged stumps.

Gat's has to be happy, the squad rotation in the 6N trial matches must be helping him finalise his squad and give him an idea of his best combos.

I wonder what the best midfield defensive combo is.

Players have to get to know each other and know the defensive mechanisms.
I think with Rowlands, Ball and Hill back in the fold we will be bolstered in the forwards.
Lake, Anscombe and Rowlands are massive losses imho.

I wouldn't take anything out of the 6N forWales this has been Gats experimenting against a backdrop of domestic warfare and utter wankery.

All true. It’s probably gone now but there was a thing on the BBC about divisions in the squad before the on/off England game.
