So it's  off to the South of France for a week for the boys to spend the hard earned money of the WRU for so called team building.  How many hangers on will also get a freebie.  And if they overspend on the jolly the Regional benefactors will pick up the tab!  What a farce.

Back to that performance today, are 12 and 13 realy the best centre in Wales?
Keep the faith

congratulations and happy for you, at least is not so bad, for me, lost against Wales..
We had our bad day at office and without Ioane and Capuozzo, Italy is a normal team, specially against a team with immense experience as today Wales..
Hope Italy can win next week

A win crafted in polyfilla and woodchip on a background of the hosts having played the worst they’ve played for some time.

The result, while good for 500K in terms of 6N league place, changes nothing.

Next Saturday is likely to be very difficult indeed and a score gap rather wide

The Italian tries were more enterprising and capable of unlocking more sides than our attack. We just happened to be in Rome when Italy had their worst game for some considerable time. Sorry to see that.

Webb did the basics well...he can't run so his game was based on that.

Next up for him to face is the best no 9 on the planet A Dupont who will expose his weaknesses, graphically....just saying.

As for the rest of the French backs....carnage.

Next up for Wales are besides Dupont....the best player on the planet are Jonathan Danty, Fickou, Penaud Ramos ....and we have ....oh yes.

Worst result possible for Welsh rugby going forward, as others have said the papering over of cracks is frightening.
Our centres were torn to shreds today and Owens Williams offers nothing. Dyer is not international standard his attempt at a tackle when last line of defence was schoolboy stuff.
Jenkins very good in second row and could form a decent pair with Rowlands. 
France will put 50 on this side in Paris next week

Who’s looking forward to hearing what Sir Clive and Jonny have to say afterwards?

The match has been over as a contest for some time. It’s quite painful for the hosts

It would have been more catalyst for change. The win is a straw to clutch; a distraction from the real picture.

Good to see Ben O’Keeffe enabling such a flowing game. Also to see that he’s spent sufficient time learning French and able to speak it appropriately in the match environment under pressure
