I wouldn't say carnage but I expect Wales to win comfortably by 15.

The players who are Lions are the same as they were before the Lions. They were good then, good now(hopefully). Theres the argument that a player becoming a Lion, especially a winning Lion would make him better and more confident. However I would be worried that we were not as successful in Welsh jerseys as Lions jerseys.

Why are Wales only putting out 9 players against Italy? This smacks of arrogance.

Lions hangovers is the only excuse available.
Wales should be the best side in this tournament. How much the Lions hangover theory is real and how much the mess in domestic rugby is psychologically affecting players is yet to be seen.
But that aside they really should win this by 15+ as the IRB ratings suggest. Anything less is underachieving.

It would be odd if Irish lions came from Wales??

I think on balance Wales deserved to beat Italy in Cardiff today. Close though.
