Italy deserved a result having been unlucky against England and France.

A win and a draw would be Italy's best result since...?

Edit - 2013 it would seem.

Whatever happened to the yellow card for the deliberate knock on by Italy at the end?

The touch judge thought it was a yellow card but the ref didn't

If that happens and France beat England (which they should, even if they're looking out of sorts) Italy would finish third. Potentially second depending on what Ireland do to Scotland and how points difference would be affected. :shock:

Italy not a million miles off being 3 from 4, makes for some cracking championships in future

Funny game to watch.

Have to say, I don't watch Scottish rugby all that much, but I'm surprised to see so many names on the teamsheet that seem to have been there for years. Jones, Russell, Fagerson, Gilchrist, Turner - all playing some way below their levels of a few years back, and you wonder why after years of middling tournament results we don't see any new names...

Would think Ireland will hand Scotland a beating of giant proportions.
Wales are basically experimenting at this stage.

I’d have sworn I heard him say a yellow card when he was initially talking it through. Dickson appeared desperate for him to award a penalty try

Congratulations Italy. Deserved that over the 80.

Scotland are a 40 min team and it's cost them a shit at a GS.

He said pen only straight away and Dickson begged him to give the yellow

I know but it is a pretty true statement. We're having to wring everything out of the likes of Gilchrist.

To be fair to Gilchrist, I think he's been pretty good this tournament.
