6N Wales v Italy
-
@sparky Yes too little too late. Penny and Gatland can form their own team. So glad the Chiefs got rid of him
-
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.
-
If there's an Eddie Jones Law that re-hiring old coaches always ends in tears, then Gatland seems intent on proving it....

@sparky said in 6N Wales v Italy:
Italy's best ever 6 Nations finish apparently.
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
6thI didn't realise it was that bad.

@pooler-fan Surely Gatland is gone if they lose
@Jailbreak7 don't think so tbh. I thought it was a step backwards at the time when he returned & he's done nothing to change my mind.
His contract is so big the WRU probably couldn't afford to sack him even if they wanted to. -
Was thinking watching the game listening to the comments about Wales' lack of physicality yet Gats & his selection team have constantly overlooked someone like Ross Moriarty at 6 who would walk into the current side & at least offer a physical presence.
Some truly strange selections throughout the competition. -
