Great momentum from the bench for Italy
Back on top
Italy 17 -14 Scotland
61 mins -
Lunch call, so no typing
Scotland exerted their experience in the last 20 and pulled away to win
Italy 17 - 28 Scotland
Scoreline flattered Scotland but fair play they took their chances whereas Italy didn't
Italy would have beaten Wales today, so thank god we played Ireland last night.
Good young half-back partnership for Italy

England v Georgia just started
Frenetic
England will walk this
-
Fuck me England.
Bully, bully, bully and then when they can't bully their way over the backs (May) fuck it up
-
England rumble, make hard work of it, but finally get over.
Willis on debut.
England 7 - 0 Georgia

But effective. I'd give anything now for a boring All Blacks team who were as ruthless as this England set up. Instead we have clown Foster and his circus.

Loved May jumping to hit the guy in the chops with his shoulder and then doubling down by pulling his headgear off in the next motion. Keep that up and you could be an AB son!

That's the thing though, they aren't ruthless.
They make hard work of it.
And it's so ponderous.
They're the Arsenal of International rugby.

They make life hard for themselves by sticking to their bully style of play. But they make it even harder for their opponents, which I guess is kinda the point

@MiketheSnow They win lots and don't lose much and that's what it's all about.

Never in question.
But against second string sides they could really let it flow.
And who knows, they may get better at it and use it when it matters.

@MiketheSnow Mike, it was a hard watch and I walk away from it feeling unsatisfied but I’m not sure %Eddie does. I don’t think his agenda was to stick 80 points on Georgia but to test areas of our game plan in a match we were never going to lose. He didn’t pick a side to play an open game with inventive back moves. He will look at this as a good step on the road (can’t bring myself to say journey). I will look on it as an 80 minutes bore fest.
But at the end we stuck 6 tries on them to nil and didn’t play that well.
