Hmmm. Yes, not quite as exciting as I'd hoped. Sounded (or looked) like a name from Lord of the Rings. Very disappointing!

Well Parrise is out, but Castro is in, so you can make of that as you will. I do not think that is a good exchange of players if you ask me, but they can have all the pens they want from the scrums they will not kick them with as we have seen all 6N, but knowing my luck they will have a stormer with the boot for a change. Doh

Personally, I think Wales are professional enough to go out and do what is needed, I just hope we do enough to keep the interest for the other games. Yahoo

They don't need to go for goal, they can kick to the corner and their driving lineout has been impressive.

Totally strange situation tomorrow... Even if we manage to win by 40+ points, I won't really be able to enjoy it - since I'll have to sit through two more games gnawing my hands before the result is clear. And if against the odds we do somehow manage to be crowned champions - there'll be nothing to show on TV to cheer over! Well, I guess we'd all pile down Cardiff Bay on Sunday for a trophy hand over..?

Too much is/was being made of where the 'Real' Cup, and where the one 'Dud' Cup, is located.

If I had money and influence, I'd have it shipped it to Italy (I mean the one that will be in Scotland, the Dud one Wink )

I couldn't care less that a team would have to laugh, and shout, and throw drink over themselves, and bite their medals to check for 'authenticity', and all that selfie guff................... without the Actual Cup (Real or Dud).

Winning is what matters.  If a team needs a Dud cup to do that and feel special about themselves then if England don't want to give up theirs, I'd certainly hand the Dud one over in a flash to keep everyone happy. Wink

Great effort by Italy. They weren't afraid to play! Wales left it late but as soon as they started that last camping down at the Italian tryline that was always going to be game over for the boys in blue.

Unlike last weeks boys in green in Cardiff. Though if you had spun it wide you'd of had us. Can't see young Cian getting a short pass in Edinburgh today.

Must admit I am a little surprised at how many pundits and media hacks think wales will put a cricket score on Italy and win this.

I think most discerning welsh fans in all sincerity give the team little hope of taking the pot, in some ways happy to be in the top three having played good rugby despite injuries and rueing a poor forty minutes in the opener costing us another grand slam.

Really looking forward to this afternoons game and seeing how the challenge effects us. Can we play fast open high scoring rugby as well as hard earned hard fought battlefield stuff?

Wales need to put a huge score on Italy today. What a fantastic challenge for sport. That said, I don't think an Italian would need anymore motivation than reading the press's attitude to their forecasted impending demolition.

Not sure i belive that this Wales team can shake off their conservative, workmanlike shackles enough to put themselves in contention.


A win in Rome is a good result, anything more is a bonus. Us fans will be waiting on other results today.

Agreed. I've said all along that we should aim to win, obviously, but the the odds of a big score are pretty much non existent. We haven't put 40 points on anyone since the last World Cup (Fiji?). We haven't beaten Italy by the 40 points, ever. We've done 39 but that was back when we played a more running oriented brand of rugby and Italy were a lot worse. The gap has closed significantly, they're playing at home and we're a much more conservative team now.

So for me this will be a fairly tight encounter to start. If we can get a decent lead and keep injury free then we may pull away a bit towards the end when we bring on the likes of Tips and Scott W. Maximum 15-20 point win for us at best I feel. History tells us that when we are favourites or have to win big then we always struggle (apart from against England at home 2 years ago).

Not wanting to sound too exited/confident, but Wales have to beat Italy, where as Ireland need to beat a Scotland that are not wanting to get a whitewash, and England need to beat a France with a point to prove. I don't see either of the other games as certain wins for England or Ireland. Whereas I can not see Wales failing to pick up the win (and if we do fail to win we aren't real champion material), so worrying about running up cricket scores may not be necessary.

Italy without Parisse is a wounded wounded duck, if you get my meaning. Twice weakened - not so much by his value as a player (and that's there in b&w) but more so for his presence, to calm them and give them the leadership they require.

So he is a big loss and Wales can realistically begin to think about exploiting that - perhaps in the second half - perhaps in the first. But if Wales get Italy mentally panicked then it becomes a potential cricket score game.

The only alternative is that in my opinion, Parisse's influence over his team mates can sometimes be too oppressive. He burdens himself with too much and can often dampen the resolve of players around him who probably think him a bit of a 'show boat'

So??? Will his absence give some of them a desire to make a bigger impression without him around them telling them to 'give it to me!'

But Wales have the potential to really hurt this Italy side.

Yeah, borderline. Think the fact that the Italian just sort of half heartedly threw one arm to compete in the end cost him.

Haimona going off... He did slot everything he could I guess.

Yeah, poor lad, though if you saw the replay, it was a textbook example of how a half hearted tackle is infinitely more dangerous to the tackler, then going full bore.

By Roberts reaction there, I was first unsure if he grounded the ball. He did but his reaction to try and ground it after the tackle was a concern. Much better from Wales now though, great kick from 1/2p.
