9pm local time. Normally a keenly faught fixture from the Azzuri in the 6 nations, but after a humiliation from the All Blacks, will Les Blues be also looking for some fun?
What’s the format, top 2 from each pool go to quarter-finals?
Is there no penalty for that cultural appropriation by France?
There it is! Goose egg is cracked, time to get serious!
That was some well executed passage by France. Hope Italy can find some energy and headspace to rally and get in this game.
Genuinely bricking it for this one. Must win game, and Italy will be looking to bounce back from the dreadful showing against the ABs.
As we say in Scotland: da fash. Italy are spent this tournament, if they keep it under 50 I’ll be surprised
