Why ain't it six? It's the six nations ffs! Here's an Italian paragraph that the bbc were too lazy to write

Italian Renaissance?

Fresh from drowning Scotland last weekend, and with a history of one off wins in the 6 nations, the question was always going to be: can they back it up? Well Ireland had a say it that result, but Italy looked the better team for more of that match than Ireland. And with a pack to match the tournament, and a backline that can shine on it's day. Menoncello, Fischetti, Garbisi - get used to hearing these names as I suspect this team are capable of beating anyone in the tournament (bar the French!). I'm gonna back them for another win vs Wales, and England which could be enough to give them an all time high 3rd in the championship

See? About 5 minutes. Love the six nations
