Italy get a yellow card, and then start to fall off tackles. 2 quick tries to Ireland. score is now Italy 3 - Ireland 26

I don't watch any Italian club rugby but they famously haven't had a good 10 since Diego Dominguez retired about 15 years ago.

Ireland going through the phases finally but can't break down the Italian defence, who for their own part have stopped giving away a stupid amount of penalties.

I don't live in Aus, just a good rugby forum. Better than any British based one

BBC reporting that the WRU has just had a dressing down from the IRB (or its new name) about their handling of George North! Also Keith Wood maybe be annoying, but Carlo Del Fava seems to speak sense and be fair and unbiased. Keep him

It's a poor form of gatland ball... Keetley can't even organise a big lump to run hard it seems. Their tempo is way off, Italy just need some more accuracy and could win this really! Schmidt needs to change the 10. I think this game plan could actually work today given a decent 10 and a higher tempo

Italy 3 Ireland 9 half time

Discipline is the only difference here. They have actually tried to play some rugby, where as Ireland haven't. But the Ireland's discipline and defence is too good where as Italy have no discipline.

I disagree on keetlry getting better, they had about 10 phases there and at no point did he manage to get anything resembling a back line set up

Why did Italy Kick their? They were getting some momentum over the gain line!

BBC said something about a shoulder I think... But not 100% sure

Launchbury and Lawes are probably the top picks. Though who else? I presume you mean parling, but I prefer Attwood to Parling. Hell at the moment I am not sure I don't prefer Attwood to Lawes. Predictions for this afternoon: Comfortable Ireland win, can't see beyond this really. Hope Italy...

As for North, watch these highlights at about 4 minutes and 20 seconds. Attempts a tackle and clearly gets knocked out. Falls straight to the floor limp as a fish. Here is hoping he doesn't play next week for his own safety!

Hands off thank you! Our pack is coming along nicely under Wig ;)

Anthony Watson was mine, but yeah Haskell was good. Can you be dick of the day and MotM all in one though? Can't believe he didn't dive for the line! Well then they need a serious talking too. North was clearly not in a good way, and was clearly knocked out again after the Attwood no try...

Have to admit I really quite enjoyed that second half. Very impressive win, especially when you consider the centres and fly half had never played as a unit, and this was something like Cole's second game back after a massive injury? Also as a Bath fan I was pretty damn pleased with how...

Poor poor Wales ;) On the other hand that also means 2/3 are quite close. Which I suspect this will be. England by between 2 and 5 points!

http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/rugby-union/31166190 Well this was quite funny! Game of thrones themed trailer for the 6N's :D

Well we shall see come 8 o'clock tonight! best of luck to all the Welsh boys in here, but I definitely want you guys to lose! You are the favourites though remember, you lot don't always like being the favourites ;)

Well the french flag is one third red so at least its a reasonably logical choice I suppose! Probably got bored with just plain white as their away kit after all this time.
