Josh Adams given a YC and could be upgraded.

@African-Monkey said in Italy v Wales:

Wales getting outmuscled up front so far. They did however have some success attacking the blindside, so something for them to attack in the 2nd half.

Josh Adams not doing his Lions chances any harm. Looks hungry.

Now he could be red carded.

"The Bunker" will review that one with interest.

Game is 60 mins in and Harrison tells us "it can't become a permanent red...."......

Italy 19 Wales 3.

A long way back for Wales now.

19-3 Italy after 60 mins. That penalty should seal it for Italy.

Zero attacking shape to Wales' "gameplan"

Arguably the worst Welsh team I've seen in the last couple of decades, sadly.

Agreed

And I watched the 90s

The thing is there's some quality players in red out there

Un taxi per il Signor Gatland, per favore.

First time anyone has run with vigour all match for Wales there with that Aaron Wainwright carry and sure enough, gains a penalty as a result.

The Josh Adams YC remains a YC.

Wales three scores down with 13 minutes to play. Surely they need to chance their arm a bit?

Try to Wales awarded, but they are checking it.

Double movement?

Double movement?

Yup clear double movement.

No try.

@sparky said in Italy v Wales:

I've muted and listening to the Radio 5 Live commentary.

Likewise

Far better

Wales try.

Wainwright scores.

All the energy with Wales now.

Wainwright scores. He's made a huge difference since coming on.

Ten minutes to go. Can they achieve a crazy comeback?

Elvis ‘68 Special

Come on Wales

Kick misses. Italy 19 Wales 8.

Ten minutes to go.

Dumb from Faletau.

That’s it

Still on. 22-15, Italy down to 13.

Penalty Try to Wales.

22-15.

WTF

Italy only have 13 players.

One minute to go.

Italy kick it long. Wales need to go 90 metres in the wet.

30 seconds left. Great excitement at the end of an AWFUL game.

Italian defence solid.

Into the Red.

Penalty to Italy. All over.

Italy almost blew that

Wales get a losing bonus point.

Game over, Italy win 22-15.

Wales found Italy's weakness, the rolling maul. Sadly for them, they discovered it too late.

Italy deserved that. Wales offered so little for 70 minutes. They didn't get out of first gear for most of that match.

Winnett, Llewelyn, Anscombe, Bevan

That’s all on Gatland

Bin both him and Howley

Georgia are ahead of Wales on the IRB rankings.

Equally down to Georgia's form than Wales being shit to be fair.
