6N Wales v Italy

[Duluth]

@MiketheSnow

Seems about right in Cardiff

I'd call it 50/50 if it was played in Italy

[Dodge]

Depends which way the Italians go for me, if they celebrated too much last week they may subconsciously feel this 6N is already job done. I hope I’m wrong though, if they’re as up for it as last week I fancy Italy to win this, particularly when the benches are emptied in the second half

It could go either way that's for sure.

Home advantage, better centre partnership, North's last game, avoiding Gatland's worst 6N finish.

Hopefully all that will be enough to get us the BP win and deny Italy their BP.

We find a front row and we're not a bad side.

Jonathan Davies on Comms - Italy look better coached, he's not wrong.

[Bones]

Huge moment.

Love how the commentators assumed the only result from that scrum was Italy kicking it out in their 22

Not looking like the better centre partnership at the moment. menoncello and Brex look awesome. Tompkins is having an absolute nightmare

[Bones]

Take the 3 Wales ya mongs

[Dodge]

Italians look bang up for it but it’s controlled aggression not desperation, shows how far they’ve come

[Victor Meldrew]

Try of the Tournament by Pani?

[Jailbreak7]

@pooler-fan Surely Gatland is gone if they lose

[sparky]

This is a bit of a thumping so far.

[Billy Tell]

This might be the end of the road for gats. If the 6N had promotion / demotion we might be talking about warren g relegate.

@Billy-Tell

50+ minutes in and this is the worst Welsh performance I've seen in years.

EDIT: Winnett looks class.

[Dodge]

Wales score, 11 points behind 15 mins to go, have a horrible feeling about this

[sparky]

A Welsh revival or a dead cat bounce?

[sparky]

Wales keep giving away penalties. They can't get any momentum or flow.

[sparky]

Wales 7 Italy 21. Less than 10 minutes to go.

[sparky]

Nearly a Louis Lynagh intercept which would have sealed it.

[sparky]

Another kickable penalty and that's the game.
