2014 6 Nations: Italy vs England (Round 5)

There is no real chance of the 50+ points win. Pundits really talk alot of **** when it comes to England and it makes no sense. I honestly don't think that we are capable of putting 60 on the board just yet. In a couple years time when Farrell 36 and tuilagi all hit their prime than you start talking about class players. If we were really going for points we would have got Watson and Eastmond in but its clear that Lancaster feels we should go for the win and just play the gameplan instead of expansive rugby. Now I have said that we probably win 60-0 with Nowell and may scoring for fun :)

Nowell to score five, just to spite you.
 
lol. Poor Italy, not getting much respect...since I've tuned into this game, everybody's answered yes to the question: "do you think England can put 50 on Italy ?"
 
Does Clive not realize when he says if they put 60 on Italy, then Ireland has to win by 10 - that he's saying they're going to nil Italy at home? Does he not realize it's 50+ points difference?
 
Ignore Clive, he mostly talks rubbish these days.

I like it how when Manu puts his hand on his heart to sing the national anthem his hand is actually roughly over his spleen.
 
man, just watching the anthem, it feels weird not to see Castro........

I just love the enthusiasm of the Italian supporters for their anthem.....must be a great atmosphere!!

What no score yet.....there has been 9 seconds of play...................!!
 
Ok this commentator is going to get annoying. Sounds like he usually commentates on radio and is used to describing everything in too much detail
 
wonder why they didn't start de Marchi...GOOD scrum there for Italy without their starters.
 
are England a little febrile to start the match there, mmmm ??? :p
 
I thought you were only allowed to put the ball in when the scrums stable/steady?
Clear hit and chase on both scrums by the Italians, but it's ignored.
 
Penalty for Italy.................England scrum being trashed in the first two scrums......where are you Marler................3 nil...............can Italy hold out with just 84 minutes to go?
 
Rubbish tactics...............you have to earn the right to throw it about..........they want to play basketball!
