Will Wales regain some degree of respect by defeating Italy and scraping to 5th in the table, or will Italy do enough in attack and defence to heap more misery on the Welsh?

I think Wales might scrape the win, but a losing bonus point for Italy will still consign us to the wooden spoon.

I haven't a clue.

Much like Gatland it seems.

We can win, obviously but italy look the better side.

If Wales go out trying not to lose then they probably will, it could be a very good game, both sides in a cup final neither want to be in.

He's benched Rowlands. Glad to see Hardy back in place. That bench front row is going to cost us.

Gatland is stealing a living.

The reason he announces the teams early is to get on with his other jobs.

He put it in the Welsh suggestion box but there were over two dozen letters claiming to be Gatland and all resignations
Ambition should be made of sterner stuff.
