good heavens italy who would have guessed that result...
The one prediction (from three) I got wrong but absolutely delighted. Meant that the three teams I wanted to win this weekend did so. (I might live in Scotland but do not support Scotland - I leave that to my son who is half Scottish, quarter English and quarter Irish).
That win today was Italy's tenth since they came into the Six Nations for the 2000 competition, if my research is correct. I list there wins as follows:
2013: Italy 23 – 18 France
2012: Italy 13 – 06 Scotland
2011: Italy 22 – 21 France
2010: Italy 16 – 12 Scotland
2008: Italy 23 – 20 Scotland
2007: Scotland 17 – 37 Italy
2007: Italy 23 – 20 Wales
2004: Italy 20 – 14 Scotland
2003: Italy 30 – 22 Wales
2000: Italy 34 – 20 Scotland
Means they have beaten Scotland six times, once, their only away win, at Murrayfield. They have beaten both France and Wales twice.
