Italy v Wales
-
WTF
-
Italy almost blew that
-
Game over, Italy win 22-15.
Wales found Italy's weakness, the rolling maul. Sadly for them, they discovered it too late.
-
Winnett, Llewelyn, Anscombe, Bevan
That’s all on Gatland
Bin both him and Howley
-
Georgia are ahead of Wales on the IRB rankings.
Equally down to Georgia's form than Wales being shit to be fair.

Triple Crown still on

Woeful performance from Wales.
Gats has talked about overplaying all week & yet when we had a 5 metre lineout in the 1st half we tried a ridiculous front peel move with the hooker.
There's some sub standard players in this Welsh squad but they all look like they've been coached by an amateur coaching team.
Getting Gats back was never going to end well but I never imagined it would be this bad. -

Just watched the highlights. Skipped through most of it... until the end, when it suddenly became interesting.
Skipping through "highlights" - a sad indictment on the game. But even doing that - I could tell the commentary was horrible. Just getting cut-off snippets of obviously inane statements... should be interesting, but... nope. -
Italy v Wales: Five takeaways as Azzurri's 'golden youth' earn a place at the 'adults' table while Warren Gatland hits 'lowest ever point'
Following Italy's 22-15 Six Nations victory over Wales, here's our five takeaways from the clash at the Stadio Olympico in Rome.
Fair points, Gatland is well past his best before and hasn't evolved. I'm worried we've got the same in NZ with the professor back involved in ABs. 'we've got to win it using our attacking DNA' 🙄 Yes it worked for women's rugby but that is a complete different game than men's ATM
