Jonny: Wins for Italy and France would make things very interesting going into the third weekend.
Anon: Talk of Welsh depth premature and wrong. Gatland should bring on big guns or risk not getting a 4 try BP

Wales hooker Elliot Dee has gone pretty well though.

Former Wales international on BBC Radio WalesWe have huffed and puffed in their 22 without creating any scoring opportunities.
They are not putting many players into the ruck so it's difficult to get over the gain line because they have more bodies in the line.

BBC Sport Wales at Stadio OlimpicoWales were in complete control of that first-half with four Dan Biggar penalties.
They dominated possession and territory but the Welsh attack could not find a way to break down Itay's resolute defence.
A poor kick from wing Josh Adams seemed to change the momentum as Steyn scored the first try and the hosts and home crowd seemed to believe again.
Italy now go in just five points down.

Wales' line-out is spluttering. Adam Beard, all exasperated shrugs and rolling eyes, leads the inquest after a squint throw gives Italy the put-in to the scrum.
And then Nicky Smith splinters in the vice at scrum time to give the Azzuri a penalty.
Italy kick up to the Wales 22m...

Dave: Some of Wales' kicking has been rather aimless and it's allowed Italy to come back into the game - they should just hang onto the ball!
Mike: Wales' rugby team and football team should swap. One kicks goals but can't score tries and the other tries but can't score goals

Former Wales international on BBC Radio 5 live sports extraItaly broke off the line out and they have scored the first try of the game.
That will only give them confidence after the territory Wales have had. Wales have to pick up the urgency in the next five minutes.

Braam Steyn (con Allan)
Pile-driving power across the final metre...
Italy's attempt to drive over from the line-out is foiled, but the hosts stay patient.
A big carry from Sebastian Negri is followed by a tag-team drive from David Sisi and Braam Steyn, with the flanker getting the head pats after they make it over the whitewash.
Tommaso Allan kicks the extras.
