To me the biggest difference was the Italy really wanted to win and Wales expected to win

Fair play Adams.
Last time Italy beat Wales was 2007AWJs 150th cap and Dan Biggars 100th cap - a loss to Italy at home
It's the small things in life
AWJ played in that one too

I think Josh Adam’s just gave it to the lad, class move if so.
Schadenfreude is a wonderful drug.AWJs 150th cap and Dan Biggars 100th cap - a loss to Italy at home

Born and bred in France by the way !
Hopefully this will give Italy some belief for the future that they can be more than just whipping boys.
Fair do's

Especially with the u20's getting 2 wins and beating England.

Looking on the bright side Scotland must be really chuffed to have company from a fellow GB nation in the "Beaten by Italy" club.

But they dropped their best player of the 6N to make way for him

Notable events - The battle of Hastings tat lead to William of Normandy becoming King of England. Alun Wyn Jones' played for Wales for the first time.
Read a stat that AWJ lost his 1st, 50th, 100th and now 150th cap.
Don't know if that's true but I'm choosing to belive it.

As a Welshman I'm very happy for the Italians.
My girlfriend is Italian and I know a couple of Italians as a result who like rugby. What a day for those people, and also great to see for the competition of Italian rugby.
As a Welshman, you need to point fingers at the tacticians - that gameplan was consistently arrogant and incredibly poor. Deserved to lose.
Inquest needs to start at a number of things including Biggar's captaincy amongst loads of others things. Embarrassing and remnants of Fiji world cup loss.
Can Pivac survive? I don't think him and his coaching team deserve to from this. Will he? We will see. Anger shared with happiness. Not one to feel anger from sport but this really is incredible!

I think it was mentioned in the buildup. Martin Johnson was asked if he thought it would be on AWJ’s mind.
