[2022 Six Nations] Wales vs Italy (19/03/22)

[AlRums]

Italy definitely took lessons from the French on how to exploit Welsh weaknesses

As neutral not a great game,If Wales get the butter off their hands ,they should win comfortably.
However Italy getting right in Welsh faces and deserve half time lead.

 

[Ragey Erasmus]

Wales tend to improve in the 2nd half and Italy tend to get worse. Think Wales will still end up winning comfortably after 60 mins of the Italians giving them trouble.

 

[Wichita]

Looks like a mental preparation issue on the Welsh side, they thought it was going to be a stroll in the park, but you should never underestimate the Italian grit.
For the moment, no issue with the score, they might even be 12 points up if Ioane had better managed his opportunity

 

[pagliaccio_euforico]

The issue is we have two captains out there at the moment. Once we take off the No carrying penalty machine we'll walk this one home.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

That counterruck was a thing of beauty

 

[General Melchett]

Excellent counter ruck

 

[AlRums]

Great tackle, unlucky italy

 

[Reiser99]

Why not pass!

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

"Does he need any support" "He does Not"

When really he should've passed.

 

[Ragey Erasmus]

Ione got selfish, if he passed it was a walk in! Ball in the wrong hand so couldn't even attempt a fend.

 

[Reiser99]

Garbisi's kicking has dropped.

 

[Ragey Erasmus]

Welsh clearing out around the side again

 

[AlRums]

Love the description of Biggar as "litter"

 

[pagliaccio_euforico]

Wait isn't brace welsh? Why does Alain put him in this situation? I guess cause Alain had no issue being dual international himself?

 

[Jimbo]

I hate scrum pens when the scrum is only a result of having to stop play for injury or similar, seems like an unfair advantage to me.

Brace is Irish

 

[Ragey Erasmus]

"You have 23 players and I think the the modern game, you should use them"

Would someone like to let Jones know?

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Wow

 

[AlRums]

What a return
