Arrogant ?

For the first time i 24 years, I can understand the statement: “Yeah you scored some tries in the end but the match was over”. It’s the first time in 24 years that I thought after 10 minutes: “Ok, we got this, we can win this.” The first time Italia controlled the game from the first minute till th...

From conceding 150+ pts against the ABs and France at the RWC to 2 wins and a draw in France in less than 6 months. Most remarkable turnaround in the sport's history. I think that something went on in the last two games in the Italian camp. We are certainly inferior to AB and France, but we didn’t ...

tanu

Ah ah that was never a try

tanu

Wow. Just wow. I do not think Italia will be able to repeat what did 2 years ago. Should be a close match until latter stages. I hope to see our guys fight like they did all the tournament, even in Dublin. Would be fantastic to avoid that wooden spoon once in a decade You should have greater ambiti...

Great game. Should be 2Ws if not some crap ref decision on the final kick in the Fra game. Forza Azzurri! They should have beaten England too. The English try at the end of the first half that sparked their comeback should never have stood. Italy should have been challenging to win the whole thing ...

tanu

I don’t recall any edition of the tournament where literally any team could beat the other. For many years we didn’t stand a chance, but this year almost every game has been so close and entertaining that I cannot wait for the next game!

After a couple of key changes, Italy scored 3 tries in 7 minutes: 33-14 after 65 minutes

Italy robbed by the referees incompetence ( French mother ?) This is reminiscent if the sad French fans, players and staff blaming the ref for France loss to South Africa in the world cup. I think suspecting a referee's bias here is ignoring he did whistle for a penalty in a very good position for ...

Law 8.21 The kick must be taken within 60 seconds (playing time) from the time the team indicated their intention to do so, even if the ball rolls over and has to be placed again. So the clock correctly should not have stopped. But does law 8.27 apply? If the opposing team infringes while the kick ...

Second game France get bailed out by the ref. Not good.

tanu

Isn't double movement when you get up to propel yourself forward as opposed as when you are dragged over the line? Depends what you mean by 'get up'. He is clearly tackled and on the ground, then pushes himself backwards over the line and places the ball. I thought it should have been disallowed. Y...

So Ramos at 10? Expect more kicking in second half?

Cheers mate… Scalabrin also is a real monster; had only a few balls to play but each time was doing some damage

tanu

Massive game by our lads; Gallorini is just a bulldozer; Gritti following on his father’s footsteps… really proud of them

How f**king sad the whole stadium booing our kicker

How is that not a yellow against the French ?!?!?

What the fudge was that yellow about?!?!?

Pity about the lineouts; our backs always seem to be able to come away with points, given the opportunity

I think we deserved a bit more. I don’t get why the ref stopped reffing in the last few minutes … Italy deserved to win, much more composed side. Glad we hung on but it was a robbery. The takeaway for us is that every U20 team in the last 3/4 years has offered an incredible high number of talents; ...

That’s the best Italia can bring on the field. We have a quality bench too. Shame that Menoncello got injured, he would have thrived in a game like this. Feel for Marin and Lucchesi too, would have been in the 23 list for sure. I hope we can resist the black wave and show to the world that we have ...

I'd be happy with that; if at least half are kicakble, Allan will keep his 100% record and that will be 30 points for us

tanu

anyway, the game will be played on the 29th at 9 pm local time (CET); maybe should be specified that you are referring to New Zealand time zone

Not necessarily. It depends on how Namibia go against Italy.

Ehm, they already lost 52-8
