General Chat

The ground is very slippery and the scrum has had to be moved

The Women have played there this morning too which couldn't have helped.

Italy women beat them ... the first game Italy Women have won this tournament ...

close thing (15 - 22) but Wales Women's indiscipline cost them the game - 3 YELLOW CARDS

ALLAN IS UP ... THUMBS UP BY FALETAU TO ALLAN AND ALLAN WAS LAUGHING .... ONLY IN RUGBY! :-D :-D :-D <3

PENALTY ITALY

They have taken it and now have a lineout at 10m from Wales' Line

Italy are driving

Pen adv Italy again ...

WALES WERE IN AT THE SIDE - BRADLEY DAVIES

SO PENALTY ITALY

Going for a lineout and not the posts!

good clean take by number 3

They are out and on the attack .... ploughing through Wales Defence

BUT WHISTLE .... ITALY "Holding on" WALES PENALTY NOW AND ANSCOMBE CLEARS THEIR LINES

Wales in attack now

Evans kicks but Italy gain the ball

Lovely to see JAMES DAVIES .... brother of the injured Jonathan Davies having his first cap today .... a long time coming! <3

Both brothers play for THE SCARLETS

James is known as CUBBY BOI (CUBBY BOY)

His older brother Jonathan is THE FOX

So Nicknamed because their parents used to run the FOX AND HOUNDS PUB in Bancyfelin in Carmarthenshire

Italy are playing penalty adantage .... and another as Liam was "off his feet"

Say what you like ...

The Pundits and Wales Fans can all shout that they want Liam Williams at Full Back and not Leigh Halfpenny.....

BUT LEIGH IS SOLID!

He does not let in all the penalties that Liam does .... albeit that Liam is an exciting player

Altogether now .....

WE’LL KEEP A WELCOME IN THE HILLSIDE

Far away a voice is calling
Bells of memory chime
Come home again,come home again
They call through the oceans of time

We'll keep a welcome in the hillside
We'll keep a welcome in the Vales
This land you knew will still be singing
When you come home again to Wales

This land of song will keep a welcome
And with a love that never fails
We'll kiss away each hour of hiraeth
When you come home again to Wales

Yes..... so glad it worked!!

Come on Wales
Come on Wales

A camera on a cable is in view on the screen ... it looks like one of those chairs you sit on to go up a ski slope :-D :-D :-D
