Go Canucks Go..
Just trying to stay awake for the big games…. i can’t work out why Italy is still mediocre after all these years in 6 Nations and European competition..
@ Te Rangatira:
Only 1 big game TR, Eng v Wales 😀
Italy fielding some second string players, and the still don’t have Parisse back, but you are right, they should be much better than Canada

Hello Sushi, you old bugger!

Speed to burn!
Another great try by Canada, jeez they look good at times
@ nortie:

Hahaha
Full time at Newlands
WP 50-19 Pumas
Province run in 35-0 points in the second half
Italy penalty, from deep in their own half… kicked out
104 @ Te Rangatira:
Yep, I know about the game after this 😀
You think Samoa can roll the Boks?
Wouldn’t surprise me at this stage, I see Nanai Williams is playing at 15, Boks will be reverting to box kicks, so the Samoan back 3 will have plenty of ball with which to run
If Canada had a more accurate kicker they could have felt much safer now

Order restored, solid performance in the second half – is it too early to talk about peaking at the right time?
Livewireback 3 for Canada, I am impressed
Canada must have been given a real pep talk at H/T, because they are a different side right now
