9pm local time. Normally a keenly faught fixture from the Azzuri in the 6 nations, but after a humiliation from the All Blacks, will Les Blues be also looking for some fun?

As we say in Scotland: da fash. Italy are spent this tournament, if they keep it under 50 I'll be surprised

Italy tend to perform quite well against France , whether that’s cos a lot of them play their club rugby in the top 14 or neighbourly rivalry, I dunno. But that and France seeming to always play to the level of their opponents, I don’t see it being a walkover.
