Australia are pretty gash, but they will still beat England pretty easily.

You are correct, but my point still stands.

Well done Italy!! Even missing about 20 points in kicks

Lesson to WR, throw money at supporting the rugby nations we have instead of new markets and supporters that don’t exist

For this one to work we have to pretend the Aussies didn't lose a home series against England 2-1, or that the last time they played NZ they didn't get battered... They've won 1 game out of their last 5. It's a very un-Australian period.

Sky have been showing Italy matches on TV8 as well as on Sky Sports, and the viewing figures have been very good (by Italian standards.)

350k watched Saturday's game on TV8 with a further 91k watching on Sky
