Hi Bruce, a couple of remarks: last year Stefan, then on her usual wing position, suffered under the Irish high ball. I suspect Di Giandomenico’s choice was also driven by the need to bring in a taller wing (Ostuni Minuzzi) to better deal with that threat. As it happened , Tyrrell had a different style of play than last year’s standoff so garryowens on the wings were not that frequent. Second, given their lack of sheer power, Italy’s major attacking threat comes from accurate passing and offloading; that worked until fitness was there, but then errors started creeping in. At the end, Italy made 24 handling errors and 24 wrong passes, much above their usual rate. On one point however I disagree: Davidson did not “lose patience” on the occasion of the penalty try. She did not have the patience to listen to what the TMO was trying to tell her, namely, that the infringement by the Irish 9 on Barattin started well before the Italian scrum started to wheel. As far as I know, (a) a penalty try is awarded when an infringement prevents a try from being scored (but the try had been scored); (b) when one infringement is followed by another one by the opposing team, it’s the first infringement which matters (barring, of course, cases of retaliation). Check again the replay and you’ll see what I mean. Frankly, that penalty try was a joke. It denied Italy a losing bonus point or even the chance to draw the game (which did not seem likely, but still). Only consolation, that game did not really matter. Ciao.

However the elite squad later moved to be permanently based at Surrey Sports Park at the University of Surrey in Guildford, with the maintaining their links with the local area and keeping Old Isleworthians RFC as their training and playing base.

Uniquely, the Awards will focus the spotlight on members of the rugby family that showcased great solidarity during the pandemic, supporting their communities, getting involved in relief efforts and showcasing the sport’s character-building values.

You have to feel for the Kate Adlers of the world. Along come all these players and you are suddenly have no game on a Saturday after being a regular for years

Hi Mario, I do not think it is ‘understandable’ or acceptable that Celtic players still feel the need to come to England. It is a black mark against the Irish, Scottish and Welsh Unions that this trend continues unabated. It’s nice for the Prem 15s to be able to think it’s the greatest league in the world (outside NZ?), but it doesn’t help women’s rugby in general. I mentioned Tounesi’s move simply as the latest in a series of moves of players from continental Europe to France and England. It is perfectly understandable why players from Germany, Holland, Hungary, Sweden and so on, choose to come to further their careers. Now that the Azzurre are getting ever closer to England and France in standard, it would be preferable to see their top players staying with their home clubs. Every nation needs to provide as many top coaches as possible. My guess is that Italy’s need is greater than England’s and France’s. But no European country has yet discovered a way of equalising its elite league. It’s the same in Italy, France and England that two or three clubs dominate the scene. I’ve penned my thoughts about the 6 Nations several times. For example: http://4theloveofsport.co.uk/2019/03/21/is-the-womens-six-nations-in-good-shape/

Frankly, it's not very clear why it is "understandable" that an Italian international moves to France or England while it is not understandable that players from the Celtic unions do the same. Even if we forget about the WR ranking, the big gap now is between England (and to a large extent France) and the other four nations.

She really is very talented, a joy to watch. I was very glad to be able to post these articles, hopefully it will inspire more girls to get playing.

Being in Australia watching the videos of my very talented niece is the only way I get to see her play, she really is an amazing little player, very proud of her xx

An indecisive start by England's openers cost them the match: both dismissed by the 13th ball mustering just 5 runs between them. Experienced pairing Nat Sciver (20) and captain Heather Knight (66) nudged England back into the game until Sciver was caught by Deepti Sharma. Deepti also dismissed Tammy Beaumont (37) and Katherine Brunt (2). India replied at a faster run rate. Lauren Winfield took two catches and Katherine Brunt took two wickets. At the 100 ball benchmark (16.4 overs) India were 122/4 needing 26 runs off the final 18 balls. Harmanpreet Kaur (42*) and Deepti Sharma (12*) obliged with three balls to spare. Love to have been there! PS: You can find Deepti's photo with me on the UK Indian Women's Cricket Website, courtesy of our good friend Kaza.
