6N 2025 England V Italy
-
We need more than wins. We need statement wins that show some progression, some structure and ideally some ambition, but I’d take the first two for now.
Edit: Just seen some stats from the Scotland game: average 2.7 carries before kicking. Kicj=ked away 69% of our possession.
Given those stats I think we did really well to manage the one (dubious) try.
-
England take the early lead, Lawrence pulls a hamstring, Marcus Smith on and Daly to midfield.
England have had all the ball and territory but don’t know what the fuck to do with it.
Italy have one attack and two clever chips puts Ange over
England 7-7 Italy

That Capuozzo try was truly sumptuous. Contender for Try of the Year.
-
Italy's D near their line is very, very good.

Lawrence pulls a hamstring
It looked like more than that, with the way he carried on, didn't look like achilles when he went off though.

Hope not for his sake. Def. Lions contender

Brace already making it up as he goes along
-
TMO gets it right
-
First and second England players to every ruck are off their feet
Should be a penalty each and every time
-
That Freeman try was hilarious . Contender for Dumbass Defence of the Year
-
Try of the season

Fucking hell, Italy 8 blows England backs off the park.
Thought this game could be a bit of a one-sized bore-fest.
It's bloody brilliant to watch.

Italy have a few world-class players these days.

Fingers crossed they win. It's much better for the rest of us if this coach stays on.
