L’Italie retrouve Capuozzo pour aller défier l’Irlande
L’Italie répond à sa défaite contre l’Angleterre en nommant une équipe qui ne comporte que quatre changements pour affronter l’Irlande dimanche 11 février à Dublin.
Les Italiens menaient 17-14 à la mi-temps avant de s’incliner 24-27 à Rome. Leur nouveau sélectionneur, Gonzalo Quesada, a annoncé une composition avec deux changements dans les lignes arrières et deux autres dans le pack pour la deuxième journée du Tournoi des Six Nations.
Ange Capuozzo, indisponible la semaine dernière, débutera à l’arrière, Tommaso Allan sera laissé sur le banc et Stephen Varney, le demi de mêlée remplaçant du week-end dernier, prendra la place d’Alessandro Garbisi, absent, tandis que Martin Page-Relo sera nommé remplaçant.
Dans le pack, Alessandro Izekor, également remplaçant contre l’Angleterre, prend place sur le côté fermé en raison de la blessure de Sebastian Negri, tandis que Manual Zuliani est promu côté ouvert à la place de Lorenzo Cannone, le numéro 8 de la semaine dernière. Le capitaine Michele Lamaro passe par conséquent de 7 à 8 pour s’adapter à la sélection de Zuliani.
L’avant d’Exeter Ross Vintcent, qui n’a pas encore été sélectionné, est appelé sur le banc, avec une répartition 5-3 qui diffère du 6-2 du premier tour. Une stratégie également adoptée par l’Irlande.

ABs captain for 23 seasons. Decent record. Surely nobody will surpass it. Legend. But alas a typo…
1 Go to commentsJust FYI Rugbypass, I for one am tired of your clickbait titles and thumbnails and will be clicking them no longer. Good day.
1 Go to commentsI think Farrell despite all of the stick he gets in the media is still one of if not the best fly half in the world. He is literally the full package. He can kick one of the best in the world, probably has the best defensive game of a fly half in the world and if he wants to he can run, take contact and find an offload to keep the pace of the attack. I dont know why he isnt spoken more about still being one of the best in the world with the likes of dupont. Farrell is the ultimate captain and team leader and is experienced- he has been in nearly any situation you can think of. I still believe due to these reasons that he is England’s best ever player and is still one of the best players in the world.

3 Go to commentsJust watched brumbies v safas game sadly not a show in he’ll thryr anywhere near quarters or semi contention. Admittedly some issues around new comers bot what stands out for me is coaching management, poor game planning and accuracy.

2 Go to commentsTruely great player. In social media and opinion pieces he was held up and flogged for the results. People wanted someone to crucify, and he was the captain. He was still an immense presence respected by his peers. His battles with Siya Kolisi belong up with with Collins vs Burger in my opinion. Unlucky to be carded in the final, but I don’t agree that his red card was the defining moment. Not when you look at the dominant performances of the Springboks (PSDT in particular.) I think Cane should be remembered for the spirit and physicality that is special to test rugby.

16 Go to comments_Crusaders versus Leinster _at the moment might be a rout! But I would like to see the Blues play Toulouse, the Hurricanes front up against Stade Francais, and the Chiefs go against Toulon.

2 Go to commentsIf stormers aren’t available. Based on form and likely availability at the time of the wales Test, you’d think Masuku would be a no-brainer to start. But starting Jordan also makes sense having Masuku come off the bench to close out the game.

1 Go to commentsLet’s examine what might be irking the brainless E: Up until 20 years before this coming Julys tests: 16 games: 14 wins for SA; 1 win for Ire; 1 draw From 20 years until July’ tests Ireland V SA: 13 matches Ireland won 8; SA won 4; 1 draw Points scored Ireland 261; SA 189 Ave Winning Margin: Ireland 11 points; SA 4 points (away 3, home 6) Away win record: Ireland 33.33%; SA 25% Neutral matches 1: Ireland win RWC France 2023. Last SA win June 2016 (8 years ago) They boast 3 World cups in that period (they do boast). The above record is not good, probably not much better than theirs against NZ for same period. That’s why the dopey E is starting fights in his head. He will probably ship a yellow when things don’t go their way in the first test.
