3 Simone Ferrari

so as a prop he is the tractor version

Italy dominating possession. Canada look a bit shit

Very soft defence.

That's the game.

Sad fro Canada, they have slipped a long way back in the world. Disappointing

Very soft defence.

..and again

Credit to Italy though - they are actually throwing it around - so much different to their usual style. Good stuff.

Geez, if Italy scores this easily against Canada, what kind of monster score can we expect from the ABs and Springboks when they play the Canadians?

Pitch is going from disappointing to dangerous.

Think they may regret only having two matches in Sapporo.

@Duluth That was pathetic. Canada making Italy look like world beaters.

Namibia might be eyeing up a win v Canada.

I haven't seen a lot of him, but Jake Polledri looks like a star in the making. Very impressed with him.

How the heck does Olmstead not make this Canadian 23?

He's buying all the beer all tour

Hahahaha
