Silly play from Italy. no ref management.

by eirebilly Sat 10 Mar 2012, 3:30 pm

That was a Welsh penalty i feel Wink

by **Biltong** Sat 10 Mar 2012, 3:31 pm

Wales pretty lucky to get that ball back after another needless kick from counter ball, and then they lose it in a maul.

Gatland is a good enough coach to realise this game plan needs only the slightest tweak and they could run away with this match. A change at 10 would do them a power of good

Neither side was going forward and the ball was grounded? Headscratch

Lydiate is a brilliant tackler.

Good try Roberts clap

by **Pal Joey** Sat 10 Mar 2012, 3:38 pm

Great run Roberts! clap

Here go the floodgates....

by Morgannwg Sat 10 Mar 2012, 3:38 pm

Wooo Roberts. Bags of pace for a massive guy. Just like Gethin Jenkins.

by nobbled Sat 10 Mar 2012, 3:38 pm

Think Wales were lucky - ref decides Wales can seal it off after all and they gain a try...

by Cari Sat 10 Mar 2012, 3:38 pm

WHAT A TRY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Go J-Ro!!! Yahoo

by **Biltong** Sat 10 Mar 2012, 3:39 pm

Now that is what you do with turnover ball.

by Shifty Sat 10 Mar 2012, 3:39 pm

Alright.. alright .. I did say 50 minutes.. it was in fact 49 minutes and 30 seconds... Tumbleweed

by Taylorman Sat 10 Mar 2012, 3:39 pm

50 minute mark...has the gate just been opened?

by Hookisms and Hyperbole Sat 10 Mar 2012, 3:39 pm

I think the floodgates are about to be opened!

by bsando Sat 10 Mar 2012, 3:39 pm

good try! this could be the floodgates about to open, Italy are gonna have to stay focused.

by Cari Sat 10 Mar 2012, 3:39 pm

No finger pointy thingy next time J-Ro!!!! warning

by eirebilly Sat 10 Mar 2012, 3:40 pm

ZZZZZzzzzzzz.

So it begins, again. Wales on their way to winning another game and the English come in blaming the ref as per.

Broken Record

by eirebilly Sat 10 Mar 2012, 3:40 pm

Oooh Priestland...

by **Pal Joey** Sat 10 Mar 2012, 3:40 pm

Still plenty of time for a 32 point win... Smile

Good defence by Italy all match and then everyone just ignores Roberts and looks to cover his pass.

by Cari Sat 10 Mar 2012, 3:43 pm

Bollix

by Shifty Sat 10 Mar 2012, 3:44 pm

Italy need to change as many of their front 5 as they possible can now, they look shattered.

by eirebilly Sat 10 Mar 2012, 3:44 pm

Still waiting for the inevitable Welsh yellow card Wink

by Cari Sat 10 Mar 2012, 3:44 pm

Parisse must be knackered, he's done some great tackles.

Not at all but the ref has been praised for his consistency right up to that point.

by Cari Sat 10 Mar 2012, 3:45 pm

Lovely take Cuthbert!

by bsando Sat 10 Mar 2012, 3:46 pm

North is probably the player of the tournament so far.

Q: What's the best thing about this Wales team doing well?

A: we don't have to hear about Henson anymore. We can talk about welsh players that are actually class like North.

by Morgannwg Sat 10 Mar 2012, 3:47 pm

We still don't look like scoring. How did the Azzuri defence become so good?

by Cari Sat 10 Mar 2012, 3:48 pm

Leinsterbaby - No one's mentioned G****, and you blew it Rolling Eyes

Not for me. I think Cuthbert has the potential to be a much better player. North looks like a stronger runner now but Cuthbert looks a better footballer

by Cari Sat 10 Mar 2012, 3:49 pm

Can someone replace Michael Phillips please?

by Cari Sat 10 Mar 2012, 3:50 pm

Cuffbert could be MOTM today.

by **Pal Joey** Sat 10 Mar 2012, 3:50 pm

Feels like more than 98 tackles Italy have made. They have defended like demons up until that try. More like 150?
