    I remember a nice discussion recently about cheating in rugby and Irish players not doing it.

    I give you Exhibit A: Jamie Heaslip.

    I remember that discussion and Heaslip was talked about extensively. He's very much a bend the rules player, just gets away with it and somehow isn't associated with it at all. He's a Wizard Harry.

    Very well worked try. Henderson doing well so far.

    Also its nice to hear Garces constantly talking to the scrum. More refs should do this.

    POM is one of the best defensive lineout operators in the world, the speed he gets into the air at the front is incredible.

    Tommaso All-an ... Tommy Allen

    Possibly the most **** sports related thing I have heard all year, if not longer. Jaysus.

    Parisse does love those long passes. Happily they're not really that effective so far.

    Unlucky but a poor kick by Zebo there, gives Italy a great field position.

    Keith Earls seems to have the opposite of whatever curse Jean de Villiers has.

    The pronunciation of the Italian players' names is a shambles on ITV. The commentator, instead of saying Venditti (Ven-deet-tee) is actually saying Vende ti (Ven-deh-tee), which, when translated, means he's essentially telling the poor bloke to sell himself.

    Discipline has not been good.


    Going down the line is a bold move from Italy.
