Welcome back Jordie

[Victor Meldrew]

Ioane coughs it up....

Jordie makes a break and off-loads to Nugget

[Mattasaurus]

Lovely delayed ball and great line from JB.... thats better

[Machpants]

JB, fuck we've missed him

[booboo]

I'm starting to cringe for the Eyeties

[Billy Tell]

Aaron smith is like one of those greedy 9s at primary school.

[sparky]

ABs 42 Italy 3.

[chimoaus]

Let’s just enjoy watching our best ever halfback, only a few more times we will witness his greatness.

[Jailbreak7]

Jordie and Frizz have made a difference

[sparky]

Signature performance by Aaron Smith so far.

[Mattasaurus]

Wrap some of these guys up after the half?..... "powder dry" and all that...

100% JB so important to the backline and general kicking.

[taniwharugby]

@booboo yep, not good for them and we are playing well (some exits aside)

[Stargazer]

That delayed pass from RM to Jordie was excellent, too.

[chimoaus]

I’m struggling to understand how Italy are so shit.

[gt12]

This type of game will cement Mo’unga in the team for the rest of the tournament (I don’t think he would be dropped anyway btw).

He’s been excellent on attack (great short ball there) as he usually is against teams that have given up on defense. His kicking from hand won’t be noticed at all.

Btw, his goal kicking has been excellent.

He's always been solid at 12 - apart from the France game.

Not spectacular at 12, just reliable. Which is exactly what I like.

Kieran Crowley seemed genuinely positive in the build up, but it looks like his players have been having nightmares all week.
