England look really out of sorts here.  Italy have been very clever with the breakdown though.

Really out of sorts it's been a terrible first 20 mins from England.

Better for the try, need another couple of scores this half.

Well we are a long way from securing a bonus point. We seem to be completely lacking any idea about how to deal with the Italian's tactics.

I'm astounded that our players are asking the referee about the rules around a ruck.

That try sums it up, lacklustre and pathetic from England.

We were asleep as that penalty was taken.

Italy deserve their lead.

So is that the rub? Villa finally win a game so England must lose? That was bloody awful.

I think this is more credit to Italy so far.  The next 10 is key, if we have a plan it will be very clear straight away.
