close, I'd give it.

Italian midfield looking tidy.

Thank god we are playing Italy

We are a shambles, as expected

we are being a bit embarrassed in the backs, innit

lucky it wasn't Cueto...

Brown is "seatbelt tackling" him there, so, much like the Italian no arms job on Watson, probably should be a penalty try anyway.

15 - 27 after 58 min.

Never fear, JJ's here.

Brown has been very poor apart from a couple of decoy runs... Really poor

Wales will be licking their lips at attacking our defence.

rubbish resourcing at the breakdown. You have to have three back rows in your team, end of story.

All change now. Watson at fb.

Again we screw up the breakdown on the "1". Could have done with a flanker out there. But, oh wait, we only have 1

Woo. Brown off

Frustrating that all the issues we thought might be the case have been the case

Te'o a step down in defensive patterns/alignment than Joseph
Brown not up to par
Turnovers a plenty when we under-resource the breakdown… usually because we don't have the flankers to get there
Youngs injury a huge worry with no back-up 9s

Ita continue to boss territory and posession.
Eng. unconvincing.

tad worrying. Defence is very ropey more than one pass out. Faz lucky there!

Worries me a bit. Has he ever played there before?

at least the front rows have all gone well

Take the 3, settle the nerves

Come on Sam!

Yay. Should've taken the 3.

bollix jinxed George

Good break by Faz - made by Ford's pass, but good line

Scored some nice tries today.
