[2024 Six Nations] Italy vs Scotland - 09/03/24

[dirty harry]

The Italian centres are quality!

 

[Wasps92]

Really enjoyed that first half.

 

[Wasps92]

Oh wait it's not over!

 

[Jimbo]

What a game

 

[AlRums]

Great first half all round, Scotland do need to go back to some basics though

 

[General Melchett]

Love Finn still having a crack from deep with the clock in red

 

[dirty harry]

I cant tell if Finn honestly fancied something out of that or if the 5 mins before rattled him and ego took over...

Either way I'm here for those decisions!

 

[Wasps92]

What a game

It's great to be able to enjoy every game in the 6 Nations now. For years I wouldn't bother watching Italy. They are now at least very competitive and enjoyable to watch even if the results haven't necessarily come yet, but you sense it's only a matter of time with some of these players. Menoncello looks as good a 12 as there is in the competition.

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

Good doggedness from Italy. Thought it was done and dusted after the last try. Need to find a way to break Scotland down though.

 

[General Melchett]

The Italy of old would gas out after 60 but they're still well in this.

 

[AlRums]

The Italy of old would gas out after 60 but they're still well in this.

They've only done 40 so far

 

[Rinkadink]

Scotland looked out on their feet for the last 5-10 minutes, line speed was... Stationary?

Half time arrived at the correct moment for Scotland. Should be good to go second half which isn't good news for Italy.

 

[General Melchett]

They've only done 40 so far

They didn't fade against France and Scotland should be expecting the same today

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

Italy with the worst caterpillar ruck of all time to start the half.

 

[AlRums]

That's great mark the half early

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

Loads of obstruction there. Gonna be called back

 

[AlRums]

Scotland love the TMO

 

[Wasps92]

No try gerrin.

 

[AlRums]

Dreadful up and under

 

[Wasps92]

Get in Italy.
