    What a hard grafted try, well worked by their pack. Should make a game out of it now and wake both teams up.

    Italy will be fairly happy with that scoreline at half time all things considered

    Tommy Allen is absolutely useless.
    Why take the points there after getting 7 from the last penalty?

    Italy will be kind of happy with that, have had hardly any of the ball.
    Should have gone for the corner at the end. I don't trust an Italian place kicker to slot one from 10m out.

    It was a penalty so they would have been allowed take the line out.

    Lack of confidence I'd say.

    Didn’t realize that. Thought that if time was up when the penalty was awarded the line out wasn’t an option.

    I'd be happy enough if Italy just denied them the bonus.

    You'd wonder what Wales are at. They are really acting the maggot in this one. This scoreline has a lot less to do with Italy than it does with Wales. They are getting penalised regularly for stupid things. They didn't do this stuff against France so no excuse for it now.
    It's clear and obvious that if they apply themselves they will destroy Italy, they are not putting anything close to a premium effort in.

    Going in two behind having chased the game from the start would have been an amazing return. Three easy points or fight for a return of 5 or 7, normally it's a non brainer.

    Of course he had to go and miss after all that :pac:

    Bit of panic from Wales here? Bringing on the big names early.

    If I only had one eye, I'd be wearing a pirate patch and grow my hair out so I could try and intimidate the opposition with my Snake Plisskin cosplay.
