Super try.
That's surely game, set and match. Another terrific Italian try.
Oh my fecking god 
Sit down and watch, this is how you play running rugby

Once they cut out the silly/odd decision making they will compete.
You fecking moron.
It’s amazing to see this team with confidence (after the last 2 games)
Winnett can’t be the best full back we’ve got.
Not his fault but with his size (in modern rugby), will struggle at high kicks, making tackles, getting through tackles… and isn‘t a generational runner with ball in hand to compensate a bit. And kicking average.
Apart from that, he’s a superstar

What's happened to Wales? It wasn't that long ago that they were the team to beat. They are now going to finish a 6 nations without even getting a draw.
It'll be super for the competition if they can win a game or two every year.
Yeah. Makes a huge difference if one team is not guaranteed to get the wooden spoon before tournament even starts.
Caught that then head on head? (accidental I should have added)
I don't want this to be a red and I'm glad it isn't. It doesn't look pretty but that's called a rugby accident.
Well done Raynal. Broken clock and all that
Lost most of our real stars… Halfpenny, Williams, AWJ, Tipuric, Faletau, couple more and haven’t replaced any of them or even close.
Regions not helping either
That reminded me of a line in the Inbetweeners - ''Like a stopped watch is right twice a day, once a term, Neil gets something right.''
Saw the offside, didn’t see the neck tackle.
Not sure he dropped it (that last angle showed he didn’t).
At least we avoid a home zero

If Italy improve Ireland's historical dominance of the wooden spoon stats will continue.
I mean, I like to laugh at the Welsh as much as the next man…..but this is a really good Italian performance. The scoreline actually flatters Wales
This defo flatters them now
Luvverly jubbly
And a bit more?
Amazing what happens when you play front foot rugby, recycle quicker and have a bit of invention?
Well played Italy.. today and this tournament
As if
All they have to do now is not wait til they are miles behind to start doing it!
Surely Wales will be better next year?
Struggle to be worse?
Couple of the subs probably should have started but we’re missing a strong front row, creativity, speed and playing cautious rugby … also lost Zammit to NFL
.Not sure there’s a lot coming up behind so just need to do something with this group. I think they’re good enough to challenge more than they have but can’t see higher than fourth (at best).

Ironically I noticed whilst posting in the drugs thread…..

Scotland when facing England: that motherfecker from Highlander
Scotland facing anyone else: Renton from trainspotting. When he’s going through heroin withdrawal
I see world cup quarter final Ireland have turned up again today.
i’m embarrassed that england even touches scotland.
You, embarrassed by touching. Sure.
The Geordies provide a natural barrier, they’re not strictly English…..or human for that matter.

It's an awful watch
Yeah it's zero craic.
i like to give off the air of a challenge.
they’re saudi nowadays anyway.
That kick summed up this match
Other teams not letting us be brilliant is really annoying.
Crowd is absolutely rocking though... again
welcome to successful rugby. brings out all the non-proles.
