So Torqs tell me again how Canna at 12 improves our kicking?
Listen son, I said he at 12 was a good option. What shot you today was Garbish-i at 10. Unfortunately Italy needs its few x factor players permanently at their peak to be even interested in a game. When one puts in a Poitrenaud-eque effort, the outcome is more calls for you to be ejected from the 6N.

Did he just change his mind on what he gave that penalty for?

What annoys me is it's ALWAYS the same direction of travel. Refs think that because one side is an underdog or away from home, they'll get away with one eyed decision making. And you know what? That's because they are right and WR has its interests in ensuring the big guys get the every leg up affordable.

My problem is they crap on Italy as not being worthy of being in the 6n some times...but the game today while England would have won most likely takes away from how Italy played.

Any of the other teams in the tournament playing England today would have had these servers on meltdown.

But I am happy to see the bounce back from Italy this week. They are showing flashes more consistently and hope it continues.

And that last pass to an isolated man on the touchline sums Italy up today. Braindead.

Better than last week. Pack was good, lots of energy and intent in the backs. Passing left a lot to be desired, had it been better this could habe been a pasting. Youngs’ worst performance for a while and I do not say that lightly. Daly shocking - is this mental now? May much better.

Ref was poor and that worked in our favour. Not up to the level at the moment.

Not sure I share a lot of the assessments on here of Italy. They offered a fair amount but were stymied by getting their tactics all wrong. For me they are much improved and will pick up some wins here and there.

Not seeing anything that will threaten France but ought to be in shape to win the other two. Oneards and upwards, fingers crossed for Willis.

I think Italy will be kicking themselves a bit that their tactics were so bizarre. I’m not saying they would have won but they could have been a lot closer.

I thought England were very poor, as was the reffing team. Italy were just slightly worse

You must have been for a wank when Russell made a half break and offload to set up the position then?
