England v Italy 6 Nations

[Jailbreak7]

Not much sign of FB Capuozzo so far. Italy pack have been MIA. Could be a long afternoon for them.

[Bones]

Yeah Italy look uncoached again. Disorganised, with little endeavour.

And then...

Strong England defence so far.

England 7 Italy 0. 20 minutes gone

[sparky]

England scrum wins another penalty.

[Bones]

The reasoning Doleman is using to penalise Italy might have been nice to apply to the 3 blokes bound by a fingernail at the front of the England maul.

[sparky]

It's a bit boring.

[sparky]

Looks like Chessum scored.

[Jailbreak7]

Cant understand the logic Doleman is using. England are clearly sealing off as well.

[sparky]

England 14 Italy 0.

[sparky]

Quality a lot lower than Ireland- France yesterday.

[Jailbreak7]

England comms talking up the team into world-beaters.

Very first play of the game had Genge crawling into the breakdown then lying down, just like in Ireland/France yesterday. At least both sides were ignored then.

[Bones]

Italy are toast. That was horrible defence.

[Jailbreak7]

Italy away from home are a different prospect.
They really need to shore up that defence. Looks porous and weak. Need also to adapt to referees rulings.

[Victor Meldrew]

Bit one-sided with England dominating upfront

Padovani having a blinder on defence

[sparky]

Van Poortvliet scores the 3rd try for England.

[Bones]

I don't think you can let that go. That still caused an advantage, no matter how far off the play the Comms think it is. He's run through the fucking gap the Italian was running into, stop whining.

Van Poortvliet Slade scores the 3rd try for England.

[Victor Meldrew]

Not a patch on the other two games thus far.
