2014 Six Nations: Wales vs Italy (Round 1)

[Thingimubob]

Jesus I thought rugby players were supposed to be educated. "Anythink", "wid". That's got to be a joke surely?

Being roughly the same age as him, all I can say is loads of people used to speak like that, especially on bebo...

Haha way too good to be picked for Italy

 

[dullonien]

Also he's a traveller?

Yeah. Dad was saying the other week that he's a traveller and loves his rabbiting.

Argh! Wish there was a 'delete' option

Do you love playing wid your balls too?

 

[j'nuh]

Gatland has said to Adam Jones that Rhodri Jones and Samson Lee are "snapping at your heels".
Gatland is also picking Rhodri Jones ahead of Samson Lee.

I'll let you guys make of that what you will.

Italy squad named:

15 Luke McLean, 14 Angelo Esposito, 13 Michele Campagnaro, 12 Alberto Sgarbi, 11 Leonardo Sarto, 10 Tommaso Allan, 9 Edoardo Gori, 8 Sergio Parisse, 7 Mauro Bergamasco, 6 Alessandro Zanni, 5 Marco Bortolami, 4 Quintin Geldenhuys, 3 Martin Castrogiovanni, 2 Leonardo Ghiraldini, 1 Michele Rizzo.
Replacements: 16 Davide Giazzon, 17 Alberto De Marchi, 18 Lorenzo Cittadini, 19 Joshua Furno, 20 Francesco Minto, 21 Tobias Botes, 22 Luciano Orquera, 23 Tommaso Iannone.


Should be a super tight game......

 

[g6mcg]

I knew Bergamasco was in the squad, but still quite surprised to see him playing.

Good luck to Allan (I'm not bitter, at all).

 

[TRF_Cymro]

Allan is the man who could make the difference in the game for Italy. Really been impressed by what I have seen of him.

 

[g6mcg]

He has been impressive, but I think he'll take a while to settle. He's still pretty inexperienced even at club level, and he's going to be playing in a struggling team.

 

[Big Ewis]

Allan is the man who could make the difference in the game for Italy. Really been impressed by what I have seen of him.

agreed. If he has a good game, Italy should win this comfortably.

 

[Thingimubob]

Not a clue who either of their wingers are, been impressed with what I've seen of Allan so far, and of Campagnaro when he's played for Treviso. An ageing Bergamasco who gets sent off even more than he used to vs Tipuric could be interesting... Also has Bortolami been playing recently?! I swear I haven;t seen him in an Italian shirt in ages!

"Prediction: Nothing too flash at this early stage but Wales to pull away by about 20!"

Absolutely agreed. Why not a 30-12 type score ? Surely this won't be tight.

[Largejanner]

Damn your national anthem Wales, I`ve gone again!:wah:

 

[Draggs]

That's amateur, simply shocking. Kick from nothing, followed through easily by Cuthbutt.

Jesus, that couldn't have been more down the middle if it was GPS guided.

Game over
