    I think that Italian opportunity may have Been grounded but there’s very unfortunate again there was no angle.

    France have more talent on display, but Italy are a much better coached team. Their forwards are fairly well drilled in comparison to the shapeless France and the Italian line out is far superior.

    Allen must be one of the most infuriating players in the tournament.

    Italy don't have any counter attack nous... Breaking ball and they all run laterally

    How infuriating are Italy. They've made three errors in the red zone in 3 minutes.

    Same as Scotland last week, plenty of ambition - no skill.

    Take your points and you're leading by 4

    Camara came right up the outside of the maul there and held on to the ball carrier at the back. Right in front of the AR too.

    To be an Italian rugby fan you need to be an inveterate masochist and have the patience of a saint.

    It's starting to piss me off no end. I think they need to start looking at the laws again.
    They should at least make it legal for the attacking team to "remove" defenders on the wrong side.

    Either that or a law which states a defender cannot get between the 9 and the ball in a maul, unless defender comes through the middle.

    Mauls are wheeling and defenders who haven't come through the middle are like limpets at the back stopping the ball coming out

    “There was no indication that would happen from the boot of Allen” says Harrison.

    It’s Tommy fùcking Allen, the man is a walking indication stuff like that can happen.
