6N has always delivered on tight games, upsets and huge passion / emotion.

This year it's delivering on this as well as quality rugby.

Superb tournament.

Wasn't that the first time they've won in Rome in 11 years? Tough gig being an Italian supporter so dammed happy that they got one!

Italy's win means they go ahead of Australia I believe, with the Wallabies dropping to 10th"

Fox Sports might report this as "Wallabies fall to historic low under Schmidt"

"Within two months of the latest Kiwi taking on the Wallabies coaching position, Schmidt has led the team to drop to 10th in the world rankings."

We should look for other countries to play against since constantly beating up on a Tier 2 nation isn't the development kick start they've been looking for.

This is no big deal. Italy beat South Africa B team.

I see what @Bones means about Finn Russell. Definitely the fattest skinny first five I’ve seen since Andy Goode retired.
