Parisse offside, Samoa penalty on their own 22
Samoa is just such a physical team, but the Azzurri are standing up to them well so far.
Try Wiiliams, under the sticks for Samoa
Good score by Samoa! Come on Italy, stop farking around.
Samoa 7 / 0 Italy
Samoa penalty, on their 22 again, not rolling away
Now Samoa not rolling away, Italy penalty
Inevitable Italy penalty… shot at goal for Orquera
Samoa 7 / 3 Italy
Italy should not try and play the Samoan game. Just keep it in the forwards and grind down the Islanders.
Advantage Samoa… penalty. Italy loosehead culpably offside
Samoa 10 / 3 Italy
Samoa stretch their lead to 7 once again.
Italy penalty on about the middle spot, Parisse down
Strange decision by Italy to keep for posts from so far out…
Just short by Garcia
Wasted kick that. Smells a bit of desperation…
Samoa 5 out… and they get the penalty
Going for goal again
Paul Williams misses this one
Italy should force one scrum after the other, they have the wood on Samoa there

Italy playing into Samoa’s hands here they should slow it down.

Handbriekie het winkels toe gegaan om die goed te gaan koop vir Vadersdag, en ek weet sy wil Lamnek potjie maak, so sy sal Jerekie-pik-my ook koop….
