Pretty happy with that. A winger on the wing and a centre in the centre looked a big improvemen (delighted for Benvenuti to get an assist with a grubber). Defence soft at times but Namibia do have a little cutting edge (they should run up a score on Canada), so that isn't necessarily a catastrophe.
Injury to a prop, crap hands in a really humid first half and some awful lineouts from Bigi are the big downsides. But overall happy to just see an Italian side regularly forging some chances, it is consistent with their slight improvement to regularly score two tries per game at the 6N.
Italy stand astride the group, looking down on the puny ABs and Boks. What's not to like?
