Thank you very much Hap.


I watched Koffi last year (maybe at JRWC?) and he seems ok, but Italian back row is getting a little over crowded (Negri, Polledri, Steyn, Mbanda, Meyer, Licata...), so he will have to fight for a spot there.


I will pay attention to Fusco and Moscardi. Italy used to have depth at the scrum half (Gori, Semenzato, Tebaldi...), but not so much nowadays. It would be welcomed to have a young talent there.


About today's game, Italy was very poor, but the game could have been very different if the referee had showed a yellow card for the dangerous tackle to Parisse or the intentional avant at the first half. Italy didn't do much until the last ten minutes, but I haven't seen such a one-sided refereeing since the Belgium-Spain that ended with Spanish players runing after the referee.


On the bright side, Ruzza did great in two tries... It's not much, but still...


I do not understand COS decisions, I would love to see Morisi and Campagnaro playing together as centres, with Sarto and Padovani at the wings, but he prefers Castello.
