they are painfull to watch, they suck, they should be out of that tournament and, what¡s worse, most of their players are not even italian

that proves that the only reason they are there instead of argentina is that they have money

FACT!
 
Would it be feasible to have Argentina in the 6 Nations? In terms of travel and finances.
I'd be interested in seeing Argentina in the 6 Nations. They could open the game up to more Spanish speaking countries.

argentina offered to play as "home" in spain

so it would be as feasible as italy

Argentina are joining the Tri Nations in a few years so it doesn't really matter.
 
To be fair, they have some cracking players. Parisse, Castrogiovanni, Bergamasco brothers, Canale etc are playing for top clubs and would walk into most teams.

The backline is shite though, has been since Dominguez retired.

Italy are doing better than France when they were first introduced. Injuries have cost them this year.
