Re: Cocks Versus Macaronis
If we played with more self-awareness we would be a danger to un-experienced teams like France. I still believe that with a proper replacement at 10 and at fly-half we would be almost a tier-1 team. Canna is a good surprise as Centre and the young Fischetti-Cannone-Licata -Zilocchi-Riccioni are grea...

Re: Munster v Benneton.
Well I didn't see the game but from reading the thread well done Munster but very hard lines Treviso, would liked to have seen you win but Owens handed that to Munster. I hope next season sees an even more powerful Treviso team :thumbup: I think so..Ian Keatley and Eli Snyman are already in the tea...

Benetton results are down to Kieran Crowley, who is a very good coach. Canada have fallen off a cliff since he left.

It is now the 2nd time in a few days that I hear Conor evoking his "departure" (I'd assume after the WCup). I hope that his work with Italy will continue. I totally appreciate his work done in these 4 yrs with the Italian movement as a whole (considering also Benetton results).
