[QUOTE="Leonormous Boozer, post: 706678, member: 45598"] The Italians in the first game in Rome are always pumped and have one of their better performances. If yesterday was a week 3 game I reckon 14 points could easily be added to Ireland's score. Add that to the fact that we had a 10 who stuck strictly to the kick chase gameplan and showed very little with ball in hand and had a 13 playing 12 and a fullback playing 13 it's easy to see why we failed to score more. The England side that played on Friday should put at least 40 points on this side and the addition of Tuilagi wouldn't do a lot in changing that for better or worse because either way May and Watson are going to get into space out wide and cause a lot of trouble, which Ireland showed, far too infrequently, is the place where the Italians were weak defensively.
