Match thread #WALvITA #M6N #6Nations #Rugby

What a year #Italy is having. Beat Scotland week one. Came close with Ireland. BEAT ENGLAND!

I love to see Italy win, I really do, and while #Wales have been showing signs of what's to come, I generally root for the #Azzurri

Hopefully a good crowd in #Cardiff - but I imagine the turmoil in the back offices at WRU won't be helping the team get their spirits up.

Hokey dokey.

Would be nice to get a win for the first time in many three year-old's lifetimes...

That said, after last week's massive win against England, Italy are on track to win three from five this tournament.

#Cardiff city central Saturday afternoon/evening with the roof closed - atmosphere should be grand either way.

Here come the anthems!

#WALvITA #M6N #6Nations #Rugby

Always nice to watch a match where I'm happy with either side winning.

Wow, crowd sounds amazing on Mae Hen Wlad!

Are they doing something to the audio? Sounds like a professional choir, best singing I've heard in some time.

Nice to see try-scoring/grin-bearing Rhys Carré starting

Whoosh turnover after turnover and both sides are ready to rumble. Not often LRZ falls for a dummy like that. Surprised we didn't see an Italy try tbh.

Red knock-on leads to accidental offside, kickable penalty for Italy.

Oh wow, Garbisi misses.

Knock-on from Italy, lineout Wales, omg Wainwright chews through the line like a locomotive engine and dots down for a try!

Conversion is good, seven on the board.

@jaz I have just got home. Do I have your permission to watch?
@GrahamSkeats absolutely, it's Italy so I'm open to either side winning 👍 You are free to bring your dark magic mojo.
@jaz be good to beat the team that beat England though, eh?
@GrahamSkeats for sure, but to see Italy win three matches would also be great!
