Six Nations history repeats itself as Wales lose to Italy in Cardiff

Wales secured a third-place finish in the TikTok Women’s Six Nations Championship despite being beaten 10-8 by Italy at Cardiff Arms Park.

They suffered a third successive defeat in the tournament following victories over Ireland and Scotland, but a losing bonus point confirmed third spot.

Italy centre Michela Sillari kicked a 79th-minute penalty to thwart Wales after it looked as though the home side had done enough.

They trailed 7-0 at half-time following scrum-half Sara Barattin’s try that Sillari converted, with Wales fly-half Robyn Wilkins and number eight Sioned Harries both yellow-carded for dangerous tackles just two minutes apart.

Wales dug deep, though, and after Wilkins kicked a penalty nine minutes from time, substitute Keira Bevan scored a try to edge her team ahead.

But Sillari came up trumps amid intense pressure, and Italy prevailed.

Mark Tele'a's departure sends unsettling message to NZRU over wantaway All Blacks

I won’t lie - he is a loss

Anyone who thinks otherwise is in denial

He constantly tops the metres gained and defenders beaten stats


But - wing is a position that is well stocked and I’m not sure so far this year he’s in the same form


After Proctors performance against the best Aussie team yesterday he really needs to start at centre

Leinster will use Rieko on the wing at times and Razor needs to bite the bullet and try this (even if he moves to centre during tests)


Otherwise the ABs now have other threats as mentioned like Naholo who appears unstoppable and Tangitau who seems exceptionally quick

Carter - hmmm not sure


And of course LF who has been smashing it for Toulon mostly at centre

Gregor Paul mustn’t watch much outside of NZ


Also I was very impressed with Love at 10 yesterday!

How about this backline against France:


Roigard

Love

Clarke

Tavatavanawai

Proctor

Tangitau

Jordan

'My Mrs deserves a raise, whoever is paying her'

great that he’s back! Would be great to see him get capped in the summer.


England desperately need to build depth at lock - the depth does seem to be there in the form of Coles, Clark, & Owen, but Coles has only played 35 minutes of international rugby in the last 12 months, and Clark & Owen are uncapped.

Is Spain rugby's next great superpower?

Spain are doing great. They have a similar system here in The Netherlands now. They’re a bit behind Spain. More tier 2 nations in Europe do this and will get better.

Highlanders vs Crusaders: Jordan is Cullen-esque, another Test bolter

Haha what a one dimentional post… They played the Highlanders mate. Didnt the Chiefs beat them by more last week? So for all the 10 Crusaders you have nominated Ill just say that the Chiefs must have been better so therefore deserve to be ABs ahead of the Saders players. Is that the logic we are using? Are the Highlanders, in 10th, the benchmark?

Saders played well, and its great to see that after the disaster of last year, but just settle down mate.

USA embracing ‘pressure’ in final event before World Championship

In 2024, I received a substantial tax refund, which I saw as a golden opportunity to improve my financial situation. Eager to invest, I became interested in Bitcoin, a digital currency that many believe represents the future of finance. Unfortunately, my excitement led me to a fraudulent company that promised incredible returns on investments. Their persuasive tactics and seemingly legitimate operations drew me in, but it didn’t take long for me to realize that I had been deceived, and my hard-earned money $572,000 had vanished.Feeling devastated and hopeless after losing such a significant amount, I reached out to a friend who had faced a similar ordeal. They recommended a company called GRAYWARE TECH SERVICES , which specializes in recovering lost Bitcoin. Although I was skeptical, my desperation pushed me to contact them for help.From the very first interaction with GRAYWARE TECH SERVICES , I was impressed by their understanding and willingness to help. Their team guided me through the recovery process, providing the support I needed during this challenging time. They explained each step clearly and kept me informed throughout the entire journey. Their dedication rekindled my hope of recovering my lost funds.Thanks to the diligent efforts of GRAYWARE TECH SERVICES , I was able to reclaim my stolen Bitcoin.

Kini Naholo powers Hurricanes to upset win over Brumbies In Canberra

Hard to tell how quick this guy (Naholo) is, but lord he takes some stopping! Could he be the guy who takes Clarke and Telea out of AB left wing contention? and given how poor Reece has been in the AB jersey (sad, because I love his energy) could he take the right wing slot?

Well said Rob Penney. The leadership group have helped set the foundation. Codie Taylor is always a leader. Captain David Havili and some times captain on the field, Will Jordan have been incredible. There influence is huge.

Crusaders flex muscles in attritional win over Highlanders

You obviously have never watched Richie Mo’unga play. He was a magician at 10 for the Crusaders in there title run 2017-23. Great defence, tries, try set ups , goals. Richie Mo’unga was one of the great line breaking 10’s.

I do care actually. Players come from lots of different places to the Crusaders. It is a great place. Hence the amount of titles we have won. You are picking a pointless and diversionary argument.
