Yes my laser accurate analysis strikes again, Hastings hasn't had a good game.

It was so much easier to blame Them. It was bleakly depressing to think They were Us. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.
In fairness that might be the least deserved individual or team try I've seen in a long long time. Not to say that Italy deserve anything. No one deserves anything from this game. Maybe some refunds for the fans, but that's about it.

See MB's post above you.
Until that clock goes red the BP is still a possibility. He strolled to the line AND booted the ball away.
No idea why Hogg protested against the ref blowing up.
He's the one that initiated the celebrations with Hastings after the third try. Not suggesting players don't celebrate but if you are chasing a BP win then .. don't do it?
I thought it was strange to hook the props when he did - they were both playing well and the prop that Sutherland has dominated was coming back on. Wasn’t material, really,
Thought Harris was probably my MOTM, dunno who got it.

Watson got it. Thought that he and Ritchie were great and a large part of the reason that we kept the Italians scoreless.
Other than that, that may be the most dispiriting comprehensive victory it has been my missfortune to watch. Defense was ok but bailed out by some good scrambling and optimistic Italian decision making. In attack we were patient but pedestrian, hoping our star player could create out of nothing (which he did). Half backs were consistently poor and created nothing on their own merit. That's good enough to beat a poor Italian side (and if I was Italian I'd be furious) but we were very limited and won't trouble Wales or France playing like that.
