Conor Murray, Tommy O'Donnell tries for Ireland
Phillip Matthews
Former Ireland captain on BBC One
"Eventually, that tackle count is going to count against you. Tommy O'Donnell shows great pace and the superior fitness of this Ireland team is coming into play. Andrea Masi should have been able to take him."

With their hooker in the bin, Italy's defence suddenly looks threadbare.
Tommy O'Donnell spots a hole, shrugging off Andrea Masi and cantering in under the posts from outside the 22-metre line.
Ian Madigan flips over the extras.

Former Ireland captain on BBC One
"It hasn't been pretty but the mauling has been very good today from Ireland, they've kept momentum going and Italy haven't been able to cope with it."

Nothing complicated to get your head around here. Line-out ball into the giant mitts of Paul O'Connell, an eight-man shove, and Conor Murray scoops up from the wreckage and dots down.
Ian Keatley adds the extras before being replaced by Ian Madigan.
Keith Wood
Former Ireland hooker on BBC One
"Ghiraldini is in there but I don't know if that's particularly cynical. I think Castrogiovanni is very lucky, you knew it was offside. It's three-to-one in terms of tackling. All the momentum has moved to Ireland."

Leonardo Ghiraldini takes a 10-minute sit-down after pushing the referee's patience too far.

"These penalties have really cost Italy today. They've given them away far too cheaply and haven't been able to deal with this Irish maul at all."
More like it. A little less grunt, a little more grey matter.
Ian Keatley puts up the cross-field bomb and Simon Zebo just fails to gather.
Tommaso Allan replaces Michele Campagnaro in the Italian centres.
Conor Murray partially charges down Andrea Masi's clearing kick on the Italy 22-metre line and Ireland work the ball left.
Tommy Bowe, faced with a wall of blue, attempts to grubber forward for himself. Good idea, but his kick cannons off Italian socks and into touch.

Oh I don't know Brian, some of the Ireland fans are pushing it close.
BBC Radio 5 live sports extra
Former Ireland international Reggie Corrigan: "This is just not what we have come to expect from Ireland after their successful autumn internationals but let's not criticise them, they are leading so it's all about getting out of Rome with the win."
Someone wake up the scoreboard operators! We have some points!
Leonardo Ghiraldini infringes at the scrum and Ian Keatley pops over a routine kick.
This must be what it was like watching rugby in the 1900s.
In the absence of anything of note on the field, the Ireland fans are making their own entertainment singing "the Fields of Athenry".
Carlo Del Fava
Former Italy lock on BBC One
"When the ground is cutting up, it's extremely difficult to scrummage because all your pressure and purchase comes from your studs gripping the ground. If the ground is slipping underneath you, it puts you under immense pressure."
Toby Jones:, external Italy are looking very good this year, could cause a few upsets.
Lucy Victoria:, external Ireland's attack way too flat, and lacking any magic. Nothing threatening with ball in hand.
Changes on both sides by the way with Rory Best replaced by Sean Cronin in the Ireland front row and Alessandro Zanni replaced by Marco Barbini in the Italian backrow.
Ireland finally manage to work the numbers in their favour.
Their three-quarter line find themselves opposite some bulking forward beef and Jared Payne makes headway before slipping the ball out the side door for Robbie Henshaw.
He is hauled down just short of the line by some desperate Italy defence, but Ireland knock on in their haste to play the ball as space opens up out wide.
That was a semi let-off for Ireland. Michele Campagnaro gets a palm to Ian Keatley's attempted pass to Simon Zebo but can't gather cleanly. He might have been in there if he had enough pace to make the most of a legitimate interception.
A hint of space as Ian Keatley throws the mis-pass to Tommy Bowe out on the left wing. The cover scrabbles across though before the British Lion can fire up the after-burners and there is no green-shirted support to off-load to.
