2018 6Nations - Game 1: Italy

[Banquo]

Great score, and that was very good from Faz fair play. JJ showing you don't need to be a unit to get behind the defence.

[Galfon]

Smart from Faz....try Ford. 69 min.
15 - 34.
game won.

[Banquo]

Give them their due, Ford and Faz have done well together. Much rather Ford wasn't kicking so much.

[WaspInWales]

JJ presents the ball so well.

[WaspInWales]

Shocking pass!

[Banquo]

yay the Faz left to right class showing

JJ is just bloody good

[WaspInWales]

Should be dropped for that!

[Stom]

Well at least we're attacking better.

[Galfon]

Eng looking more cohesive with JJ & Nowell after Teo/Brown...easier when the opps. kernacked though...

[Zhivago]

You guys need 8 points to match (beat?) us in the table

[WaspInWales]

Line!

[Which Tyler]

Nice

[Banquo]

More unseen work

[Galfon]

Simmons off at the B of the burst..more than useful.
15 - 41

[Stom]

Simmonds cuts such beautiful lines

[Which Tyler]

You guys need 8 points to match (beat?) us in the table

Pardon?

[WaspInWales]

Flattering us a bit now, but still gotta score them.

[Banquo]

See Ford's pass l-r there! Lovely by Simmonds too.

[Galfon]

Nowell shows his pace..Chiefs take centre stage.
15 - 46 after 78 min.

[Which Tyler]

So, for next week, Simmonds and JJ have to start, Watson has to start at the back, with JN right wing?

[Banquo]

Can't complain too much about our backs attacking, or in their 22.

A lot of the breakdown, and backs defence has been crap.

[Banquo]

So, for next week, Simmonds and JJ have to start, Watson has to start at the back, with JN right wing?

No, Ben Teo had a good game, Flats said so.

[Danno]

Stand totally corrected on Simmonds, I think I was confusing him with Farrell at times (sorry, Sam).

I like how we're pinged for not releasing every 5th ruck yet the Italians can fall on the wrong side of literally every tackle and not hear a word of it

[Galfon]

7/10 overall due to last 15 min. upsurge.
Some selection changes still in the reckoning for Wales match.

[Which Tyler]

So, for next week, Simmonds and JJ have to start, Watson has to start at the back, with JN right wing?

No, Ben Teo had a good game, Flats said so.

Te'o was decent running hard lines, JJ just as good there, whilst being better an Jimmy lines and 2 players in defence.

Robshaw, Simmonds, Mercer
Care Ford, Farrell, JJ
Nowell, May, Watson
