Lawrence pulls a hamstring

It looked like more than that, with the way he carried on, didn't look like achilles when he went off though.

Hope not for his sake. Def. Lions contender

Brace already making it up as he goes along

TMO gets it right

Freeman in for England's second try. 12-7

First and second England players to every ruck are off their feet

Should be a penalty each and every time

That Freeman try was hilarious . Contender for Dumbass Defence of the Year

Try of the season

Fucking hell, Italy 8 blows England backs off the park.

Thought this game could be a bit of a one-sized bore-fest.

It's bloody brilliant to watch.

Thanks to brilliant England coaching.

If England aren’t careful they could lose this

Italy have a few world-class players these days.

Fingers crossed they win. It's much better for the rest of us if this coach stays on.

Defence optional from both sides.

Half time. England 21 Italy 17.

Chance of a big upset from the visitors?

Italy blew a chance to really put England under pressure

Them Marcus hitch kicks his way to the line

Tom Curry goes over and that’s the match

And suddenly it's 42-17.....

The Twickenham crowd are having a Sunday afternoon snooze.

And so does the English defence. Italy score their third try.

England 42 Italy 24. Not a great game but it's beautiful spring afternoon in London.
