    All over.

    Wales 21 Italy 24.

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

        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.

            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.

                    @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.

                          Writing has been on the wall for a long, long time. Goes far deeper than any coaching setup.

                              Can’t work out how to post Neil Jenkins complaining to the ref and getting put back in his box. Should have been sent off, should definitely peak WR’s interest

                                  That try by Pani in the 46th minute was fantastic.

                                      @Catogrande hopefully he gets cited. The game would benefit immeasurably by preventing "waterboys" from entering the pitch. And penalizing substitutes who enter the field of play to celebrate a try.

                                        Ref was poor but we were poorer for not adapting to what he was seeing

                                        I was pitch level and the touch judge was blind. Missed so many crooked throw ins and forward passes from both sides

                                        Shittest performance I’ve seen from Wales live

                                        EVER

                                        Pathetic

                                        My missus’ mum texted during the match

                                        She turned over to BBC 2 to watch Schindler’s List

                                        It was less depressing

                                        Our tactic today was based on luck

                                        Hope they drop the ball from a kick

                                        That’s not coaching

                                          In stark contrast to multiple pay outs Eddie.
