Wales Italy match thread
Afternoon all,
Well we are soon to kick off. I wish both sides the best of luck but secretly i will be hoping Wales win and go on to win the Slam .

Wales by 30, although I would love to see Italy make it much closer than that.

Love the use of the Band of Brothers and Taxi Driver soundtracks there...
Hopefully I'll make it through both matches. Cari is very poorly today

Italy have often been the banana skins for Wales....they need to be careful as they'll target certain big Welsh backs...

Think if they go a couple of scores ahead they will cut loose, as happened with Ireland. If Wales dont build up a big enough lead in the first half, can see Italy making a scrap of it, but still too much class in this Welsh team for it to be close.

Well I predicted wales by 28, and on the six nations comp 40-12, hopefully I make some points.

I think that it will be close up until the 60minute mark and then it will be down to Wales to see how much they can score.

Arrived home from work with an epic temperature, aches and shivers. Went straight to bed. Have been there ever since, but I've got up for this (wrapped in four layers and a massive woolly blanket). Almost barfed into the bin just now! Hope My Boy can cheer me up and get his deserved record.

What did you think of their outside half in the U20's game last night?
That hair cut was something very different!

There's such a big Italian community in South Wales too, so it's a great atmos here for home Italy games.

I think that's a more realistic margin, Italy only take one massive beating a year, and I wouldn't be suprised if Wales leave it late to run up their points.

Bad news = Irish ref
Good news = it's one of the few decent ones they have, and it's not dangerous Dudley!

Clancy is going to give the Italians a bit today. He often favors the defence at the rucks.

Look, i fully expect Wales to win and win well. I just dont think that it will be by 20,30 or 40 points.
