6N Wales v Italy

[sparky]

Wales heading to their 4th and their record defeat by Italy.

[sparky]

Some of these Welsh players looked absolutely puffed. Their legs have gone.

[Dodge]

Really grown up, competent performance by Italy. I’d swap the England centres for theirs in a heartbeat

[sparky]

Huge moment for Italian Rugby. This isn't a narrow, lucky win. They've totally out-played Wales.

[sparky]

Wales get over the line but lose it.

[sparky]

Consolation try.

[sparky]

Will they actually get a wooden spoon?

[sparky]

George North limps off to a standing ovation.

@sparky Yes too little too late. Penny and Gatland can form their own team. So glad the Chiefs got rid of him

[sparky]

Welsh try right at the end. All of Cardiff cheers even though they've lost the game.

[Dodge]

Was following the commentator talking about wales avoiding the wooden spoon and was annoyed, then realised it couldn’t be true.

Italy coughing up tries at the end should annoy them from a points difference point of view. What a step forward they’ve made in this tournament.

[sparky]

All over.

Wales 21 Italy 24.

Scoreline massively flatters Wales. Italy were excellent and controlled that game for 75 minutes.

[sparky]

Italy's best ever 6 Nations finish apparently.

24-7

Italy celebrating. Stop it lads

They should give themselves an uppercut for how they played after this moment, they switched off completely - you can’t do that in international rugby.

Ball falling off a tee away from 3 wins.

[Victor Meldrew]

If there's an Eddie Jones Law that re-hiring old coaches always ends in tears, then Gatland seems intent on proving it....

Results wise yes but position wise they've been fifth before.

Commiserations @MiketheSnow a tough time to be a Welsh fan.

I thought they showed a lot of spirit in the earlier games but have dropped off badly in the last 2. Looked all over the place today - and nervous.

Seem to have some good new players but you have to question if Gatland is the man.

A stat came up on the BBC coverage about Wales' last five 6N placings:

5th
1st
5th
5th
6th

I didn't realise it was that bad.
