[2025 Six Nations] Italy vs Wales - 08/02/25

[TommiG88]

Italy are playing such dumb rugby.

 

[Gavin]

So much for my bets on Italy with a -7.5 handicap.

It's as if they just go to sleep.

 

[Which Tyler]

You don't often see that.
Yellow for repeat infringement usually resets the ref's patience. Not today (rightly so TBH)

 

[IT157]

Bloody hell. Italy could be throwing this away

 

[Scotty]

If Wales get a draw here it will be crazy

PT has to come with a yellow I believe.

 

[AlRums]

Carley now gone totally one eyed

It does indeed.

Though I think the PT was because he was ****** off, rather than preventing a probable try at that point (IMO maul was sacked before any drive)

Me when I don't know the laws of rugby

 

[Rinkadink]

That's crazy from Italy. Why do they keep giving away those kind of penalties?

Worst case should be forcing Wales to score out wide and putting pressure on the conversion.

 

[IT157]

There we go. Italy made that way more stressful than it should have been.

 

[Crash Hamster]

Italy had a good go at messing that up, but deserved to win. Why would you give away a penalty try when making Wales kick the conversion would have run the clock down?

 

[TRF_Olyy]

That final period kinda showed where Wales are at - 2 men up and being driven back in their own 22 until they concede a penalty

They really need a coaching overhaul asap

 

[dullonien]

Good, didn't want Wales to come back to draw, didn'r deserve it

 

[General Melchett]

Two poor last 20s in a row from Italy. Should've gone for the jugular when Adams got binned.

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

Italy shouldn't be happy with that. Oppo having the ball.woth a chance to salvage a draw should never have been on the cards.

Like seriously. That final play demonstrates how stupid Italy are.

Go for the posts. Means Wales don't get a losing bonus points and I win my bet.

Yeah, crazy. Looked like Italy were the ones 2 players up!

 

[AlRums]

I didn't disagree with the warning and at least one card.

But Wales committed numerous defensive penalties and no warning or card.

 

[Rinkadink]

Is Garbisi okay?

Why would you not take the 3 to deny Wales a LBP?

Fully deserved win though, congratulations.
