This weekend the story of Wales starts in the north. The seniors | :00:21. | :00:26. | |
are looking to close in on Grand Slam glory in the south on Saturday, | :00:26. | :00:32. | |
but tonight the under-20s kick-off in Colwyn Bay. It has proved a | :00:32. | :00:37. | |
happy hunting ground for Wales, where they shot down at the Scots' | :00:37. | :00:47. | |
| :00:47. | :00:49. | ||
On the road, they have misfired, slipping up against Ireland, before | :00:49. | :00:56. | |
being blown away by the English. They shipped 40 points at the Stoop. | :00:56. | :01:00. | |
They may not be going in search of the Grand Slam, but will be keen to | :01:00. | :01:08. | |
entertain a sell-out home crowd. It has been a glorious day in Colwyn | :01:08. | :01:14. | |
Bay. Conditions are just about perfect for running rugby. Wales | :01:14. | :01:23. | |
starts strong favourites tonight. Good evening and welcome from a | :01:23. | :01:30. | |
sort out her Eirias Park. Joining me tonight is Sean Holly. And we | :01:30. | :01:36. | |
have talked a lot about the importance of the under-20s. Sam | :01:36. | :01:41. | |
Warburton told us last week that it was about development off the pitch | :01:41. | :01:46. | |
as well. A crucial part of these young men to come to North Wales, a | :01:46. | :01:51. | |
full house, a great occasion. Danny Wilson are without a dozen -- | :01:51. | :01:56. | |
without about a dozen key players. A fantastic time to go white and | :01:56. | :02:01. | |
impressed. You were never afraid to give youth a chance at the Ospreys. | :02:01. | :02:09. | |
Who should we look out for? Davies is a precocious talent, and | :02:09. | :02:13. | |
confident young man and one of the most natural kicking talents we | :02:13. | :02:17. | |
have had come through. I'll be looking for him tonight to really | :02:17. | :02:24. | |
run of the game and go forward, but also have composure. We have to | :02:24. | :02:28. | |
take this game into the last 30 when they can run away with it. | :02:28. | :02:35. | |
Luke Morgan is looking sharp. a young man with no shortage of | :02:35. | :02:41. | |
talent. Me wanting to be hungry for the ball and get back and counter | :02:41. | :02:51. | |
| :02:51. | :02:51. | ||
attack. He can score some tries! Let's get the ball to him tonight. | :02:51. | :02:55. | |
Coaching the under-20s is a challenging job. Danny Wilson has | :02:55. | :03:00. | |
had to do without some of this top players. It is difficult to believe | :03:01. | :03:05. | |
that George North are still eligible to play for this side! He | :03:05. | :03:13. | |
has also lost his captain Kirby Myhill. | :03:13. | :03:17. | |
Our first experience against Scotland up here was some | :03:17. | :03:22. | |
experience, a passionate crowd. Hopefully that will keep going. | :03:22. | :03:27. | |
had changed your team around a little bit. Why? There is a wider | :03:27. | :03:31. | |
squad there with a number of boys who want to have a look at, | :03:31. | :03:35. | |
thinking about the World Cup. It gives us an opportunity to do that | :03:35. | :03:45. | |
| :03:45. | :03:52. | ||
tonight. It is a home game that we Quick atmosphere building here. We | :03:52. | :04:00. | |
have had the Triple Crown trophy being displayed. A tricky wind | :04:00. | :04:04. | |
favouring the team playing from left to right. Tom Shanklin, I am | :04:04. | :04:10. | |
looking forward to seeing Jack Dickson. You have got your eyes and | :04:10. | :04:16. | |
Jordan Williams. He is a very promising player, can play 10 or 15. | :04:16. | :04:23. | |
A great kicker. Speed to burn. Similar to Matthew Morgan. I think | :04:23. | :04:29. | |
he needs to be a bit more vocal. There will be plenty of opportunity | :04:29. | :04:39. | |
| :04:39. | :04:42. | ||
for him tonight. Very impressed with that picture. �6.4 million has | :04:42. | :04:48. | |
gone into the development of this stadium. It is a credit to North | :04:48. | :04:58. | |
| :04:58. | :05:03. | ||
Wales rugby. The only... Thanks, guys. It is a wonderful | :05:03. | :05:10. | |
facility here in Colwyn Bay. Clearly a strong appetite for the | :05:10. | :05:17. | |
game up here. Clearly. When you come to North Wales to get | :05:17. | :05:22. | |
tremendous support and huge crowds. It is great that we can embrace | :05:22. | :05:30. | |
that. If we needed a reminder dead George North is from north Wales, | :05:30. | :05:35. | |
you can see it in that model that has been going around tonight! They | :05:35. | :05:40. | |
are very proud of him round tonight. There is clearly a lot of talent | :05:40. | :05:46. | |
appear. And a lot of talk about the possible restructuring of regional | :05:46. | :05:55. | |
rugby, could you see at club appear in recent times? -- in the recent | :05:55. | :05:59. | |
future? There is definitely untapped talent appear. Surely | :05:59. | :06:09. | |
| :06:09. | :06:14. | ||
there is something that we can do to embrace the north of Wales. | :06:14. | :06:24. | |

Welsh language and commentary is on under-20s Italians from the Long | :06:37. | :06:46. | |
Walk down from the changing rooms. Amazing facilities here. The whole | :06:46. | :06:52. | |
set-up here is something they had done a fantastic job with. | :06:52. | :07:00. | |
Fantastic is the appropriate word. You have got a fantastic training | :07:00. | :07:09. | |
facility and playing surface. The North Wales crowd had come out in | :07:09. | :07:18. | |
force. They want to see top-class rugby. It is a capacity crowd of | :07:18. | :07:26. | |
just under 6000, it was against Scotland a few weeks ago, and it is | :07:26. | :07:30. | |
the same again this evening. It will be the same again next week | :07:30. | :07:36. | |
when France are the visitors. If things they appear next year, they | :07:36. | :07:41. | |
are hoping to expand even further and open -- and utilise some of the | :07:41. | :07:45. | |
open spaces around the ground, which is great for the area and | :07:45. | :07:51. | |
Welsh rugby in general. No doubt about it. They are hoping the | :07:51. | :07:58. | |
under-20s will make this their home for the next couple of years. They | :07:58. | :08:03. | |
are hoping to extend and improve what is a great facility here. | :08:03. | :08:11. | |
Ellis and Jenkins, the Welsh skipper this evening. He will join | :08:11. | :08:17. | |
his squad as both teams line up on the five metre line in preparation | :08:17. | :08:27. | |

an Irish referee this evening. Wales, with two defeats away from | :12:58. | :13:07. | |
home, but a win here at their new home at Eirias Park. They live to | :13:07. | :13:17. | |
| :13:17. | :13:17. | ||
Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds | :13:17. | :14:21. | |
continue in the same mould. Sam Hanging on to the ball in the | :14:21. | :14:26. | |
tackle, so they give away the first penalty. We will intend from Wales, | :14:26. | :14:32. | |
looking to get the ball wide. They had speed out wide so I'm sure they | :14:32. | :14:37. | |
have -- am sure they feel they have the beating of the Italians off | :14:37. | :14:45. | |
wide. Jordan Williams is looking very dangerous. I think he is | :14:45. | :14:51. | |
better suited at fullback. A great runner. I think he was isolated | :14:51. | :15:01. | |
| :15:01. | :15:01. | ||
Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds | :15:01. | :17:30. | |
there and had to hold on, giving Italians. Good ball retention. They | :17:30. | :17:35. | |
have to keep it fairly tight. Wales are defensively are looking quite | :17:35. | :17:45. | |
| :17:45. | :17:45. | ||
comfortable in terms of their organisation. This is a missed | :17:45. | :17:54. | |
tackle. The offload them. Wales look organised, but they need to | :17:54. | :18:04. | |
| :18:04. | :18:04. | ||
Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds | :18:04. | :19:05. | |
The Italians. Certainly as big as Calabrese found a way, completely | :19:05. | :19:15. | |
| :19:15. | :19:16. | ||
open for them. That is a simple try for him. It was. All the space out | :19:16. | :19:24. | |
there to the right hand side. I think it was Tom Young who was held | :19:24. | :19:30. | |
down and could not that across quickly enough. It gave them just | :19:30. | :19:38. | |
the time and space needed. Sam Davies are taking the dummy. Great | :19:38. | :19:48. | |
| :19:48. | :20:21. | ||
start from the Italians. Showing Seven minutes played and seven | :20:21. | :20:31. | |
| :20:31. | :20:58. | ||
points ahead. Rob Williams got the blind side, or at the narrow | :20:58. | :21:08. | |
| :21:08. | :21:08. | ||
Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds | :21:08. | :22:15. | |
leave it. Rhodri Williams, it is instinctive, pick it up. Iolo Evans | :22:15. | :22:22. | |
should have taken that. A penalty kick and another opportunity to | :22:22. | :22:32. | |
| :22:32. | :22:32. | ||
Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds | :22:32. | :23:22. | |
has been all Italy since the Italy have scored in the | :23:22. | :23:28. | |
Championship this season. They kept the ball, they have not made | :23:28. | :23:32. | |
mistakes, they have not conceded penalties, they have taken | :23:32. | :23:42. | |
| :23:42. | :23:57. | ||
ironic cheer goes up from the crowd. That is a poor penalty kick to give | :23:57. | :24:07. | |
| :24:07. | :24:07. | ||
Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds | :24:07. | :25:08. | |
away. Wales will be delighted it delighted. That is a good line-out. | :25:08. | :25:15. | |
I think it was Dan Baker who got across. Got his just rewards. | :25:15. | :25:21. | |
Pretty simple stuff. Poor defensive work from the Italians. But well | :25:21. | :25:31. | |
| :25:31. | :25:47. | ||
done, Robert Evans. I think Wales Simple as that. Wales are needed | :25:47. | :25:54. | |
that actually. Even thought they are without some of their first | :25:54. | :26:01. | |
team, or first players, there is still enough talent in this side | :26:01. | :26:11. | |

Jordan Williams was slightly behind Luke Morgan was stopped just over | :28:10. | :28:20. | |
run it slightly. Keen to get into a little bit of space. Let's have a | :28:20. | :28:28. | |
look. This is the initial move. Strong, powerful. Tried to stay on | :28:28. | :28:38. | |
| :28:38. | :28:38. | ||
Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds | :28:38. | :29:46. | |
Will's would love the opportunity to run into the open space. -- | :29:46. | :29:56. | |
| :29:56. | :30:26. | ||
Apperley. Too strong in the end. Because it went dead, they have to | :30:26. | :30:36. | |
| :30:36. | :30:39. | ||
go all the way back. It is a strong Aldwyn died there. That has given | :30:39. | :30:49. | |
| :30:49. | :30:49. | ||
Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds | :30:49. | :32:28. | |
eager last time. They got there somebody running on its speed, and | :32:28. | :32:34. | |
it is a bit flatter, not quite as long as we have seen on a couple of | :32:34. | :32:40. | |
occasions. The Italians are putting pressure on in midfield. The Welsh | :32:40. | :32:46. | |
side are trying to throw it around so, get wide as quickly as possible. | :32:46. | :32:51. | |
They could be the case for using the boot occasionally, trying to | :32:51. | :33:00. | |
make the defence think. I think the Italians have realised that they | :33:00. | :33:09. | |
are going to try to play this wide game against them. Guido Calabrese | :33:09. | :33:19. | |
| :33:19. | :33:26. | ||
didn't take his hands off the ball opportunity to move things back to | :33:27. | :33:33. | |
level terms. Sam Davies seems to be made cheering as this tournament | :33:33. | :33:40. | |
goes along. He is very confident, and naturally gifted kicker of the | :33:40. | :33:45. | |
ball, and we will see more of his running ability again. He has the | :33:45. | :33:50. | |
full box of tricks. He communicates well with his forwards and backs, | :33:50. | :34:00. | |
| :34:00. | :34:11. | ||
offside, running into the man in front. Wales have more of the | :34:11. | :34:21. | |
| :34:21. | :34:24. | ||
natural rugby talent. That was bad work there, crossing. The Italians | :34:24. | :34:27. | |
have the organisation and a commitment. They will have worked | :34:27. | :34:37. | |
| :34:37. | :34:37. | ||

hard and done their homework on quite comfortable for the Welsh to | :35:20. | :35:30. | |
| :35:30. | :35:30. | ||
Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds | :35:30. | :36:26. | |
the penalty at the breakdown again. The referee has been very vocal. | :36:26. | :36:32. | |
REFEREE: There have been higher series of penalties at the break | :36:32. | :36:39. | |
down. They are not listening to me, so why am giving penalties. | :36:39. | :36:44. | |
Welsh just need to do a bit more graft, go through the phases. They | :36:44. | :36:54. | |
| :36:54. | :36:58. | ||
are trying to get everything wide so quickly. | :36:58. | :37:03. | |
Tom, you were saying that the well to try to get outside Italy. Every | :37:03. | :37:11. | |
set piece, they are trying to get the ball wide, Ged Jordan and Luke | :37:11. | :37:16. | |
Williams into the game. Great start but the Italians, though, 10. | :37:16. | :37:26. | |

the Wall Street could quickly! -- sharp, very lively with the ball. | :38:51. | :38:57. | |
He has looked sharp and defensively. He was the one who held Luke Morgan | :38:57. | :39:03. | |
and earlier to get the turnover. David O'Dea EXE has looked good, | :39:03. | :39:10. | |
too, always looking for the offload, getting past defenders. -- David | :39:10. | :39:20. | |
| :39:20. | :39:23. | ||
Odiete. They are always looking to make yards. David Odiete, with the | :39:23. | :39:29. | |
ball in hand, or defence of the has looked good. Great work by the prop | :39:29. | :39:37. | |
forward there. Italy are certainly up for this one. They have come | :39:37. | :39:45. | |
here to win and perform. Italy have not won so far. They and Scotland | :39:45. | :39:50. | |
have not won any of their three matches. Scotland are at the bottom | :39:50. | :40:00. | |
| :40:00. | :40:11. | ||
of the table. Italy had the better Italy will be very happy to get her | :40:11. | :40:21. | |
| :40:21. | :40:21. | ||
reset out of that. That was a great hit by Wales. Just trying to get | :40:21. | :40:26. | |
the momentum from their hits that will put the Italians on the back | :40:26. | :40:36. | |
| :40:36. | :40:42. | ||
even without the Kirby Myhill. This is their second year with the | :40:42. | :40:52. | |
| :40:52. | :40:52. | ||
Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds | :40:52. | :41:50. | |
to applaud both teams for their endeavour. They are trying to keep | :41:50. | :41:57. | |
the ball alive at every opportunity. Sam Davies has made the right | :41:57. | :42:01. | |
decision on a couple of occasions, with the Italians trying to close | :42:01. | :42:09. | |
down the wide players. Great play by both sides, it has to be said. | :42:10. | :42:15. | |
The Welsh are pinning in some grit low tackles. Look here, 6 and 7 | :42:15. | :42:21. | |
would normally go for the ball, but they take this base passed the ball | :42:21. | :42:26. | |
in this case. It creates a nuisance for Italy and causes the turnover | :42:26. | :42:36. | |
for Wales. You don't have to win the ball directly to win the ball | :42:36. | :42:45. | |
eventually. That is great awareness by the two Welsh bankers. -- Welsh | :42:45. | :42:54. | |
flankers. Italy will be disappointed by this, they went for | :42:54. | :43:00. | |
their easy ball at the front of the line, so they will be very | :43:00. | :43:06. | |
disappointed to lose hold of it. The Welsh will be very happy with | :43:06. | :43:16. | |
this. Wales are playing against the wind, so they will be happy to keep | :43:16. | :43:23. | |
the ball in hand. They need to go through more faces, to try to time | :43:23. | :43:28. | |
in more of the Italian defenders, so the guys out why it will get | :43:28. | :43:38. | |
| :43:38. | :43:52. | ||
scrum, so it looks like the Welsh are relying on an early hit to get | :43:52. | :43:57. | |
the momentum. As it slows down, you can see the pressure coming on from | :43:57. | :44:07. | |
| :44:07. | :44:23. | ||
the Italians. The Italians are now have remaining. -- first half. That | :44:23. | :44:29. | |
was a better scrum from the Welsh, they disrupted the Italian scrum. | :44:29. | :44:35. | |
Jack Jones, wearing five, is a late replacement for Rhodri Hughes, he | :44:35. | :44:45. | |

He took his man. He had to make a tackle. He had made the decision to | :45:50. | :45:55. | |
come in and he committed himself. He got the ball out of the hands of | :45:55. | :46:05. | |
| :46:05. | :46:12. | ||
the Italians. Good play by Iolo Evans. The father of Jack Jones | :46:12. | :46:22. | |
| :46:22. | :46:27. | ||
played for Swansea. A lot of the old boys are producing a players of | :46:27. | :46:37. | |

| :47:30. | :47:32. | ||
That was not them actually. That was at Michele Campagnaro. The ball | :47:32. | :47:39. | |
to Rhodri Williams was not good enough. Guido Calabrese is looking | :47:39. | :47:43. | |
quite sharp and lively. He is keeping things ticking over for the | :47:43. | :47:53. | |
| :47:53. | :47:53. | ||
Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds | :47:53. | :48:39. | |
defence. That was unexpected position for Italy. I think it just | :48:39. | :48:46. | |
caught, it came back from the second row forwards. Guido | :48:46. | :48:50. | |
Calabrese certainly was not aware of it. He was putting pressure on | :48:50. | :49:00. | |
| :49:00. | :49:13. | ||
very strong breeze behind them in the first half. It will be | :49:14. | :49:22. | |
interesting to see how Wales adapt their tactics in the second half. | :49:22. | :49:32. | |
| :49:32. | :49:35. | ||
Possibly because of the wind. Davies has a very good, cultured | :49:35. | :49:45. | |
| :49:45. | :50:24. | ||
he does what Guido Calabrese did at the beginning. Lovely timing. Italy | :50:24. | :50:34. | |
| :50:34. | :50:35. | ||
gets and their second try. They have used the same move. But this | :50:35. | :50:40. | |
time, it was one of their quick men. Both the winger has looked very | :50:40. | :50:49. | |
sharp. Great food work, fantastic foot work. Wales will be | :50:49. | :50:55. | |
disappointed that they conceded that try. They had numbers there. - | :50:55. | :51:05. | |
| :51:05. | :51:06. | ||
- footwork. Great finishing. They probably deserve it. They have been | :51:06. | :51:11. | |
strong up front, they controlled the game. They tried it to play | :51:11. | :51:17. | |
with a little bit of width and they have been awarded with two a very | :51:17. | :51:27. | |
| :51:27. | :51:56. | ||
It was a lovely pass. Once he got outside Nathan Edwards, he was | :51:56. | :52:06. | |
| :52:06. | :52:42. | ||
always going to get across that has been calling very clearly, he | :52:43. | :52:52. | |
| :52:53. | :52:54. | ||
has been very vocal. It looked very much as if Sami Drissi was him or | :52:54. | :53:04. | |
| :53:04. | :53:08. | ||
not ball quickly. -- in on that ball. The communication had been | :53:08. | :53:18. | |
| :53:18. | :53:42. | ||
made. He has to be allowed to three points for Wales. He is | :53:42. | :53:51. | |
striking the ball very well. The coach at just in front of us | :53:51. | :54:01. | |
| :54:01. | :54:01. | ||
Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds | :54:01. | :54:54. | |
Sollis. We have not seen much of Luke Morgan. The tackle coming from | :54:54. | :55:01. | |
behind. Wales are trying to keep the ball alive. That was better by | :55:01. | :55:11. | |
| :55:11. | :55:14. | ||
Wales. Italy have to bring on a replacement prop. That will take | :55:14. | :55:24. | |
| :55:24. | :55:54. | ||
first half performance. They started and finished very strongly | :55:54. | :56:03. | |
indeed. Rob Evans hit back for Wales. But a bit of work for the | :56:03. | :56:08. | |
Welsh boys to do. They knew they were going to be in a game, and | :56:08. | :56:18. | |
| :56:18. | :56:31. | ||
voice, but it was Etholle who struck first. The extended their | :56:31. | :56:41. | |
| :56:41. | :56:42. | ||
lead with this penalty. Wales were able to even the score, but Italy | :56:42. | :56:52. | |
| :56:52. | :57:13. | ||
An interesting first half, plenty of incident. Yes, a very good start. | :57:13. | :57:18. | |
Where as did pretty well to pull it back. But the wind is playing a | :57:18. | :57:26. | |
huge part in this game. Italy are always good for our half, but then | :57:26. | :57:33. | |
they tend to wear down. Wales should be able to pull back, | :57:33. | :57:43. | |
| :57:43. | :57:53. | ||
especially with this went. early tries. The first dry is a | :57:53. | :58:03. | |
classic example. It takes a chance. The scrummage compromises at the | :58:03. | :58:07. | |
Wales at seven and then Wales and Wales at seven and then Wales and | :58:07. | :58:17. | |
| :58:17. | :58:29. | ||
It was timed to perfection. Around the corner, Wales will win the race. | :58:29. | :58:37. | |
It gives a Wales their try. Thanks for that. Where as it looked as if | :58:37. | :58:47. | |
| :58:47. | :58:54. | ||
they were back in the game. Italy struck back. -- Wales looked. It | :58:54. | :59:04. | |
| :59:04. | :59:06. | ||
was great good work. -- footwork. That was enough to put Nathan | :59:06. | :59:16. | |
| :59:16. | :59:24. | ||
Edwards off. Italy have been very looked shirt tonight. They have. I | :59:24. | :59:29. | |
honestly didn't expect it. Wales have beat Italy every time they | :59:29. | :59:36. | |
have played them at this level. Sean, you have been looking at how | :59:36. | :59:41. | |
the Welsh have played defaces tonight. They are going a little | :59:41. | :59:49. | |
bit lateral acts the moment. Cheers you have three forwards outside San | :59:49. | :59:57. | |
Davies. You can see that there was an outbreak -- an outside break | :59:57. | :00:03. | |
caused by Jordan Williams. A great run by Willgriff John here. This is | :00:03. | :00:09. | |
the same in terms of shape. Three forwards running off Sam Davies. | :00:09. | :00:19. | |
| :00:19. | :00:22. | ||
This time, you can see great footwork to get through. It is a | :00:22. | :00:32. | |
| :00:32. | :00:35. | ||
bumper weekend of sport coming up. It continues after this programme. | :00:35. | :00:39. | |
Sergio Parisse has said that it is almost impossible for Italy to win | :00:39. | :00:47. | |
tomorrow, that could be a bit of gamesmanship. Both then the Six | :00:47. | :00:54. | |
Nations continues with the Scotland Against Ireland's, then France | :00:54. | :01:00. | |
first is in them on Sunday. All the action will be rounded up on the | :01:00. | :01:08. | |
Six Nations Special on Sunday night at 10:35pm. All of which brings us | :01:08. | :01:11. | |
on to do Six Nations. We have talked all night about the | :01:11. | :01:15. | |
importance of the under-20s as a stepping-stone to international | :01:15. | :01:23. | |
honours. This is our guide to becoming a Welsh rugby legend. In | :01:23. | :01:27. | |
it is not easy to become a legend, but here is one way. | :01:27. | :01:32. | |
Show your skills at under 20 level. This is the shop window for any | :01:33. | :01:42. | |
| :01:43. | :02:03. | ||
you need to shine for your region international plates. Off the bench | :02:03. | :02:07. | |
against the Barbarians and did enough to get on the plane to New | :02:07. | :02:13. | |
Zealand. It is great to make the World Cup squad, but three tries on | :02:13. | :02:20. | |
your international debut? That is the way to stand out. Step 5, bring | :02:20. | :02:30. | |
| :02:30. | :02:31. | ||
on the old enemy. Scott Williams sprinted into the history books. | :02:31. | :02:38. | |
From under 20 to Welsh legend and five steps, nice work Scott | :02:38. | :02:43. | |
Williams! Scott Williams is not starting | :02:43. | :02:50. | |
tomorrow. There is intense competition in the squad. Plenty of | :02:50. | :02:55. | |
competition, especially in the centres. I don't think Jaime | :02:55. | :02:59. | |
Roberts's position is in doubt at the moment because he is such a big | :02:59. | :03:03. | |
part of the squad. It is great that Scott Williams is making such a big | :03:03. | :03:07. | |
impact when he comes on, that is what you want from the bench | :03:07. | :03:14. | |
players. I think we might be able to see my 50 or 60 minutes? Maybe | :03:14. | :03:19. | |
even at half-time. He has proven that he can score tries. He has | :03:19. | :03:26. | |
played well for his region and his country. Sam Warburton is not fit | :03:26. | :03:31. | |
for the Italy game, but we are blessed in many positions and | :03:31. | :03:41. | |
number seven is one of them. I am a big fan of Justin to prick. He is a | :03:41. | :03:47. | |
great athlete and a great line-out option. He is a slightly different | :03:47. | :03:56. | |
player, probably more of a link player. He has got a lot of talents. | :03:56. | :04:00. | |
Wills are overwhelming favourites. How do you see it going? I don't | :04:00. | :04:05. | |
think it will be too easy. We have momentum and confidence and | :04:05. | :04:09. | |
strength in depth now. We have got something to look forward to next | :04:09. | :04:14. | |
week, but let's not get ahead of her cells. And to the hard yards | :04:14. | :04:19. | |
first, with her big ball carriers and earth macro, then get that | :04:19. | :04:26. | |
backs into the game. Wise words, let's not get to ahead of the Celts. | :04:26. | :04:36. | |
| :04:36. | :04:37. | ||
We have had some dark days in the past against Italy. Tom Shanklin | :04:37. | :04:46. | |
does like to run in a few tries against Italy! | :04:46. | :04:56. | |
| :04:56. | :04:56. | ||
Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds | :04:56. | :05:54. | |
It is Tom Shanklin for the line! for a matter of seconds. | :05:54. | :06:01. | |
A wonderful bit of nostalgia there, and progressively less hair. | :06:01. | :06:07. | |
need to go back a few years to get some clips of me with hair. I lost | :06:07. | :06:16. | |
twice against Italy, in 2003 and 2007, but I played well, so every | :06:16. | :06:26. | |
cloud! I think it will be a difficult first have tomorrow, | :06:26. | :06:32. | |
Bucks I think the way the Welsh play will suit Italy, they like to | :06:32. | :06:41. | |
spread the ball wide. I think Italy to try to tire out the Italians. | :06:41. | :06:51. | |
Staying with the theme of centres, we will stay with another one. Mark | :06:51. | :06:55. | |
Taylor wanted me to say to Tom Shanklin that he never lost against | :06:55. | :06:59. | |
the Italians! There are you surprised by Italy tonight? | :06:59. | :07:06. | |
really. We knew they would be a tough side. We are making it | :07:06. | :07:10. | |
difficult for ourselves by giving away too many penalties and getting | :07:10. | :07:16. | |
turned over in her own 22. We are making basic errors. We are just | :07:16. | :07:22. | |
gifting them points. You have the wind in the second half. Hopefully, | :07:22. | :07:26. | |
we will play in the right areas. We have got to make them work for | :07:26. | :07:33. | |
their points. A quick word about the atmosphere here? His it is | :07:33. | :07:39. | |
tremendous. Great atmosphere last week against Scotland, and the same | :07:39. | :07:47. | |
again tonight. Thanks for your time. At the wind will come into play, so | :07:47. | :07:51. | |
what are we also need to do to win this game? A Beanie territory in | :07:51. | :08:01. | |
| :08:01. | :08:21. | ||
the first half. -- we need the Luca Scarsini, the replacement prop | :08:21. | :08:28. | |
as there because Sami Drissi will still have another half-a-dozen | :08:28. | :08:34. | |
minutes in this sin-bin. Wales with the wind in the second half will | :08:34. | :08:39. | |
try to make the best use of that man advantage in the early stages. | :08:39. | :08:46. | |
As Tom Shanklin mention, you have to put the boot to ball, get | :08:46. | :08:50. | |
territory, put themselves in a position where they can build. The | :08:50. | :08:57. | |
need to put pressure on the Italian defence. So, but Wales are still | :08:57. | :09:07. | |
| :09:07. | :09:23. | ||
trailing in their second game of Italy Cup playing into the wind. | :09:23. | :09:27. | |
This presents the opportunity for will still get back within one | :09:27. | :09:37. | |
| :09:37. | :09:49. | ||
point. David Odiete has looked very How many times do you see players | :09:49. | :09:55. | |
just lean on the man on the ground to secured possession? He would | :09:55. | :10:00. | |
argue that he was not going to ground, but he was still on his | :10:00. | :10:04. | |
feet, but it is the referee's interpretation. They have been a | :10:04. | :10:09. | |
couple of calls on the breakdown and he has penalised them, so both | :10:09. | :10:19. | |
| :10:19. | :10:28. | ||
teams need to learn to play the will be disappointed with that. He | :10:28. | :10:38. | |
| :10:38. | :11:09. | ||
did not connect very well. It all Could this be yellow? Guido | :11:09. | :11:14. | |
Calabrese. A I have seen yellow cards given for that. Dan Baker has | :11:14. | :11:20. | |
been very impressive and carried very effectively. But he did not | :11:20. | :11:25. | |
quite have the support around him. That ball is quick, they have them | :11:25. | :11:30. | |
on the back foot. You can cool off your feet as the scrum-half. I | :11:30. | :11:36. | |
would not have been surprised by a yellow card. Great footwork by Dan | :11:37. | :11:42. | |
Baker. He looks to get the pass, but support is in close enough, he | :11:42. | :11:48. | |
pitched John Apperley on his backside and gets the offload. | :11:48. | :11:54. | |
Davies makes no mistake with this one! Wales have taken just three | :11:54. | :11:58. | |
minutes to get their first points of the second half and put them | :11:58. | :12:08. | |
| :12:08. | :12:08. | ||
back within one point. That will dishearten the Italians. The early | :12:08. | :12:18. | |
| :12:18. | :12:55. | ||
stages will all be about territory. just running out of space. That was | :12:55. | :13:05. | |
| :13:05. | :13:28. | ||
good work. Sam Davies playing themselves under pressure. Yeah, | :13:28. | :13:35. | |
they're making mistakes, a lot of them unforced. Perhaps a little bit | :13:35. | :13:45. | |
shocked to go in at half-time in front. Their previous results in | :13:45. | :13:50. | |
the Six Nations had been and 19 points to five defeat to France, a | :13:50. | :14:00. | |
| :14:00. | :14:00. | ||
defeat Ireland's, and a 40. Hammering by England's. England are | :14:00. | :14:05. | |
going for a grand slam. They have some depth at this level, don't | :14:05. | :14:14. | |
they? They always do. That was quite incredible! A seven-man scrum. | :14:14. | :14:20. | |
You can see he is pretty happy with that! Luca Scarsini will be having | :14:20. | :14:25. | |
an extra bowl of pasta tonight! That is all about the front five, | :14:25. | :14:35. | |
| :14:35. | :14:38. | ||
huge pressure. That will have lifted them. It won't be long | :14:38. | :14:48. | |
before their back up to 15. They may want to keep on three props! | :14:48. | :14:58. | |
| :14:58. | :15:26. | ||
John Apperley, they knew they had the penalty. They will come back | :15:26. | :15:33. | |
for that's penalty against Matthew Screech. REFEREE: The penalty count | :15:33. | :15:43. | |
| :15:43. | :15:53. | ||
conceded much if they do get these three points. A very well organised, | :15:53. | :15:59. | |
powerful drive up. I do nothing there is any way he can plead | :15:59. | :16:09. | |
| :16:09. | :16:11. | ||
innocence of there. -- I do not think. Matthew Screech and Ellis | :16:11. | :16:21. | |
| :16:21. | :16:49. | ||
that a yellow card has not been John Abberley. Oh well organised. | :16:49. | :16:56. | |
The ball comes to Conforti. He could well have been a yellow-card. | :16:56. | :17:05. | |
Lots of referees would have given that. He has just given the penalty | :17:05. | :17:15. | |
| :17:15. | :17:44. | ||
Just making sure it is saved of the park. -- safe off the park. It is | :17:44. | :17:54. | |
| :17:54. | :17:55. | ||
Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds | :17:55. | :18:35. | |
it is a blustery wind. It is to get the pass away. -- I think | :18:36. | :18:41. | |
Rhodri Williams was trying to get the pass away. The pass goes | :18:41. | :18:51. | |
| :18:51. | :18:52. | ||
forward. But they could not take advantage of that. Putting a | :18:52. | :19:02. | |
| :19:02. | :19:42. | ||
Michele Campagnaro under pressure there. How important is a game like | :19:42. | :19:48. | |
this for the development of rugby? It is essential. The amount of | :19:48. | :19:53. | |
enthusiasm it is creating, you can see from the crowd here tonight. | :19:53. | :19:58. | |
Lots of youngsters. Everyone is out at supporting the fixture. We have | :19:58. | :20:05. | |
got a full house. What about the future of Wales youngsters in this | :20:05. | :20:15. | |
| :20:15. | :20:19. | ||
ground? Hopefully, it will go on for another three years. Iolo Evans | :20:19. | :20:27. | |
is from Caernarfon. It is a pleasure to be here in North Wales. | :20:27. | :20:37. | |
| :20:37. | :20:53. | ||
with the club. Bernard a Vickery, one of the stalwarts of rugby here, | :20:53. | :21:03. | |
| :21:03. | :21:05. | ||
in Colwyn Bay, they can be rightly proud of themselves. A double | :21:05. | :21:15. | |
| :21:15. | :21:39. | ||
Davies in this first half. -- of Sam Davies. Danny Williams did say | :21:40. | :21:43. | |
they are looking forward to their junior world Championship. It is | :21:44. | :21:49. | |
not just about the Six Nations. Opportunities being given to a lot | :21:49. | :21:59. | |
| :21:59. | :22:00. | ||
of youngsters this evening. He is taking over goal-kicking duties? | :22:00. | :22:10. | |
| :22:10. | :22:29. | ||
Williams and there is the third. Just at the wrong side of the flag. | :22:29. | :22:39. | |
| :22:39. | :22:39. | ||
His first touch of the ball was not a good one. The scrum has been all | :22:39. | :22:49. | |
| :22:49. | :23:10. | ||
Italians at a time when Wales need to start applying pressure. Luca | :23:10. | :23:20. | |
| :23:20. | :23:24. | ||
Scarsini Ticking over. -- taking over. Sami Drissi did do some | :23:24. | :23:34. | |
| :23:34. | :23:34. | ||
Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds | :23:34. | :24:24. | |
ridiculous. The referee has to penalise that. I know that most | :24:24. | :24:32. | |
referees allow that, but it has to be a contest, a fair contest. | :24:32. | :24:41. | |
at how Rhodri Williams gets that ball into the scrum now. I am not | :24:41. | :24:45. | |
sure if it was that decision that angered the Italian coaching team | :24:45. | :24:52. | |
or not. But they are not happy. will not argue with him, he is a | :24:52. | :25:02. | |
| :25:02. | :25:02. | ||
Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds | :25:02. | :25:45. | |
the 4th one goal? The Italians and all they have got the better of the | :25:45. | :25:51. | |
Welsh scrum -- know they have got the better. If aid to pull off a | :25:51. | :25:59. | |
win, it will be an historic one. Looking forward to the big match of | :25:59. | :26:09. | |
| :26:09. | :26:15. | ||
the weekend. Coverage starts from 2pm tomorrow afternoon. Followed | :26:15. | :26:21. | |
later in the afternoon by Scotland against Ireland. And at the weekend | :26:21. | :26:24. | |
finishes with France against England on this Sunday afternoon. | :26:24. | :26:32. | |
You can have a look back at the whole weekend on BBC One with the | :26:32. | :26:42. | |
| :26:42. | :26:42. | ||
Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds | :26:42. | :27:25. | |
the ball. The longer this goes on, the more confident the Italians | :27:25. | :27:35. | |
| :27:35. | :27:50. | ||
in. A very quiet part of the game and the crowd looking for anything | :27:50. | :28:00. | |
to try and cheer. Just going from set piece to set piece. Wales are | :28:00. | :28:10. | |
| :28:10. | :28:10. | ||
Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds | :28:10. | :29:16. | |
under pressure again. It is so slow at the breakdown. They should be | :29:16. | :29:22. | |
tried to get some momentum, it to keep on the front foot and then | :29:22. | :29:32. | |

side wing and, has come across the midfield. A I think they are | :29:56. | :30:06. | |
looking at the inside ball from Michele Campagnaro. The scrums are | :30:06. | :30:11. | |
taking any age at the moment! Italy won't worry, they want begin to | :30:11. | :30:19. | |
quieten down, they are the ones ahead. -- a big game at to quieten | :30:19. | :30:29. | |

Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds | :30:29. | :31:16. | |
Luke Morgan and that is a tremendous score! Luke Morgan gets | :31:16. | :31:23. | |
his name on the scoresheet again. That is as good as it gets! | :31:23. | :31:30. | |
Italians were sucked in defensively. Once they had gone through two or | :31:30. | :31:35. | |
three phases, they were on the front foot. You can see the | :31:35. | :31:43. | |
Italians trying to call players across. We have seen the footwork | :31:43. | :31:49. | |
in previous games of Luke Morgan. At last, a wheel strung some phases | :31:49. | :31:59. | |
| :31:59. | :32:06. | ||
together. Great try. -- Wales. Morgan's try converted by Williams | :32:06. | :32:11. | |
and Wales go-ahead for the first time. The ball was delivered | :32:11. | :32:21. | |
| :32:21. | :32:21. | ||
Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds | :32:21. | :33:04. | |
that time, so hopefully that will on. They want them to do well. Now | :33:04. | :33:09. | |
questions are being asked of Italian defenders. The Italians are | :33:10. | :33:19. | |

Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds | :33:20. | :34:09. | |
was congested, but he managed to get the ball in. It was a decision | :34:10. | :34:16. | |
whether to try to keep the ball in the tackle, or get the ball in. | :34:16. | :34:26. | |
| :34:26. | :34:49. | ||
That was the decision he made. This in between the two defenders, he | :34:49. | :34:59. | |
| :34:59. | :34:59. | ||
was always going to get in. Jack Nixon, he was doing great work, | :34:59. | :35:09. | |
| :35:09. | :35:09. | ||
Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds | :35:09. | :35:54. | |
only 17 years old. He did extremely are trying -- mistakes are starting | :35:54. | :36:02. | |
to creep in. They had a great start. They were relying on their scrum, | :36:02. | :36:07. | |
but mistakes are starting to creep in. Their defensive line is | :36:07. | :36:13. | |
impossible -- isn't what it was early on. Some bad decision-making. | :36:13. | :36:23. | |
| :36:23. | :36:23. | ||
Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds | :36:23. | :37:15. | |
very sharp. He sees this space immediately. He does get blocked a | :37:15. | :37:21. | |
bit, so can't get there, but he gets there, makes the tackle. He | :37:21. | :37:26. | |
has been caught out defensively once or twice, but still has looked | :37:26. | :37:36. | |
| :37:36. | :37:36. | ||
Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds | :37:36. | :38:17. | |
and the chance for Italy to draw level. The Italians were looking | :38:17. | :38:20. | |
for bad driving maul again. We have seen some very good footwork in | :38:21. | :38:30. | |
| :38:31. | :38:34. | ||
midfield. We have seen the referee blow very early, not letting the | :38:35. | :38:42. | |
tackled player moves the ball. The referee has been very vocal all | :38:42. | :38:52. | |
| :38:52. | :39:06. | ||
night, and communicated well with there was he got in between the two | :39:06. | :39:11. | |
Italian defenders. This speed of Luke Morgan meant she was always | :39:11. | :39:21. | |
| :39:21. | :39:40. | ||
John and police succeeds and Italy are back level. It is game on. | :39:40. | :39:48. | |
Wales are looking to make more changes. The one to give players an | :39:48. | :39:58. | |

Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds | :39:58. | :41:56. | |
opportunity, but at the same time Deliberate say Italy, just and | :41:56. | :42:05. | |
knock-on says the referee. How many times have we seen penalties there? | :42:05. | :42:10. | |
It is an instinctive thing to pick your hand out. Time and time again | :42:10. | :42:16. | |
we see penalties there. Wales have lost possession, and the Italians | :42:16. | :42:26. | |
| :42:26. | :42:31. | ||
are more than happy to keep playing. The official crowd deceiving 5847, | :42:31. | :42:36. | |
a record we are told for an under- 20s international. They have come | :42:36. | :42:42. | |
up with the numbers, been very supportive of the side, very good | :42:42. | :42:52. | |
| :42:52. | :42:52. | ||
atmosphere. Wales had been guilty of going too wide too early. For | :42:52. | :42:59. | |
the last ride you can see the forwards getting involved. Rob | :42:59. | :43:09. | |
| :43:09. | :43:17. | ||
Evans has been really prominent in His work rate is very high. He has | :43:17. | :43:24. | |
certainly had his hands on the ball a lot. When he has carried, he has | :43:24. | :43:34. | |
| :43:34. | :43:46. | ||
Italian replacement, he has only been on for a few minutes. He hurt | :43:46. | :43:56. | |

Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds | :45:05. | :46:30. | |
moment. A few minutes now to salvage a win. Great atmosphere, | :46:30. | :46:40. | |
| :46:40. | :46:52. | ||
huge support, can be grind out a win here? -- can they grind out? | :46:52. | :47:02. | |
| :47:02. | :47:04. | ||
Wales, defeated by Ireland, winning comfortably again Scotland. One man | :47:04. | :47:12. | |
has really been prominent here, and Dan Baker. His ability to power | :47:12. | :47:22. | |
through and present the ball. Making good passes in an open space. | :47:22. | :47:32. | |
| :47:32. | :47:32. | ||
Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds | :47:32. | :48:21. | |
of it towards the end. Changes this ball. To try and get any kind | :48:21. | :48:27. | |
of points. But Italy protecting it really well. Not doing anything | :48:27. | :48:37. | |
| :48:37. | :48:37. | ||
Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds | :48:37. | :49:46. | |
with it, but they are hanging on in Italy whether that's storm? They | :49:46. | :49:56. | |
| :49:56. | :50:16. | ||
finally have something to celebrate. It looks as if Wales are going to | :50:16. | :50:26. | |
| :50:26. | :50:29. | ||
get another when in their new home. -- win. He has made the right | :50:29. | :50:39. | |
| :50:39. | :50:39. | ||
decisions. Great reading of the game by Dan Baker. Some good | :50:39. | :50:49. | |
| :50:49. | :51:10. | ||
decision-making. Just reading the great performance. He has made the | :51:10. | :51:20. | |
| :51:20. | :51:22. | ||
difference. He has been prominent and make the difference. Dan Baker | :51:22. | :51:32. | |
| :51:32. | :52:08. | ||
That try it probably is sums up the decision to make them at man of the | :52:08. | :52:15. | |
match. He could see the pass was going to be made. He read it well. | :52:15. | :52:25. | |
| :52:25. | :52:27. | ||
Good vision. The Italian pack has been fantastic. Their back three in | :52:27. | :52:31. | |
particular have all looked sharp. Second half, they have not had the | :52:31. | :52:39. | |
opportunity. Dan Baker has been involved and has probably been the | :52:39. | :52:47. | |
main threat it on the Welsh side. There will be relief for Danny | :52:47. | :52:57. | |
| :52:57. | :53:21. | ||
Wilson and the rest of the coaching last 15 or 20 minutes. -- wear. | :53:21. | :53:25. | |
They can't take the pressure. That is where Wales at the senior level | :53:26. | :53:32. | |
have developed their game so well. A great work ethic to keep composed | :53:32. | :53:42. | |
| :53:42. | :53:50. | ||
and keep them the game. -- keep in the game. A replacement hooker. The | :53:50. | :54:00. | |
| :54:00. | :54:00. | ||
Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds | :54:00. | :55:02. | |
at this stage of proceedings. Maybe to a little too late for them. | :55:02. | :55:08. | |
Their last opportunity. They have to be cautiously optimistic. Wales | :55:08. | :55:18. | |
| :55:18. | :55:20. | ||
have to be composed and be sensible in terms of their defensive work. | :55:20. | :55:30. | |
| :55:30. | :55:30. | ||
It has will be the best performance, you expect more from the Welsh side. | :55:30. | :55:40. | |
| :55:40. | :55:47. | ||
A lot of these guys play regional Rob Bailey. -- rugby. The Welsh | :55:47. | :55:51. | |
players had to dig deep for that one. They had to fight even harder | :55:51. | :56:01. | |
than the expected. It took them one hour to get ahead and then Italy | :56:01. | :56:11. | |
| :56:11. | :56:24. | ||
drew level again. There is one more the 75th the moment abide man of | :56:24. | :56:34. | |
| :56:34. | :56:46. | ||
second half, but a deserved win. Yes, the Italians made it very | :56:46. | :56:51. | |
difficult for Wales. Wales have made a few slobber errors, but they | :56:51. | :57:01. | |
| :57:01. | :57:04. | ||
stuck with that and it was a great try at the end. -- sloppy. What did | :57:04. | :57:11. | |
you feel like when that ball popped into your hands so? Just a joy. I | :57:11. | :57:18. | |
saw it coming and it seemed like it was going on for ever. Italy were | :57:18. | :57:24. | |
tough nut to crack. Were you surprised how tough? We always knew | :57:24. | :57:34. | |
they were a tough side and dominant. But the boys have done well. | :57:34. | :57:39. | |
Especially after the English game last week. Would you please with | :57:39. | :57:45. | |
your game generally a? There is always room for improvement, but I | :57:45. | :57:51. | |
am pleased with what I did. what about the crowd? Thanks to the | :57:51. | :58:01. | |
| :58:01. | :58:06. | ||
crowd for their support, it has tonight. Yes, he looked very good | :58:06. | :58:16. | |
| :58:16. | :58:22. | ||
with ball in hand. I am delighted for Wales. And I am more delighted | :58:22. | :58:28. | |
for Dan Baker. He had a great game tonight. Italy made it very | :58:28. | :58:32. | |
difficult for Wales. But they can go into next week very confident | :58:32. | :58:42. | |
| :58:42. | :58:43. | ||
now. Let's turn our thoughts are to tomorrow's match. A tantalising | :58:43. | :58:53. | |
| :58:53. | :59:03. | ||
encounter. Yes, the two number 8s, that will be a huge battle tomorrow. | :59:03. | :59:13. | |
| :59:13. | :59:20. | ||
But which side do you think will have the edge. It all depends... I | :59:20. | :59:30. | |
| :59:30. | :59:41. | ||
think Toby Faletau is something the difference? -- earned. Yes, | :59:41. | :59:45. | |
some mistakes cost us dearly, but it was her first chance to see some | :59:45. | :59:51. | |
of these young players. Dan Baker was man of the match. And there are | :59:51. | :59:57. | |
some good other players as well? Yes, they just need to learn them | :59:57. | :00:06. | |
to understand when to play and when not to play. Yes and it looks good | :00:06. | :00:16. | |
| :00:16. | :00:22. | ||
Let me have your prediction for tomorrow. Wales by 15 points. I | :00:22. | :00:29. | |
think it'll be tough, but I think we will win in the second half. | :00:29. | :00:33. | |
there are still some tickets left for the game tomorrow. For next | :00:33. | :00:39. | |
Friday night here, and there is another came here for the under-20s, | :00:39. | :00:49. | |
the final fixture. Sport Wales is next on this channel. 2005 and 2008 | :00:49. | :00:54. |
