#Italy making it even easier to support them by wearing red!
#Italian anthem to start, so I'm gonna nip to the shop and run a few errands.
La Marseillaise in Paris. Lovely. And cut the music, bloody marvelous.
Dupont. Dupont. Jellybear.
Not sure on the grounding, but lovely.
Say "Garibaldi Red" one more time...

My NBC Peacock feed has almost no crowd noise, no field mics, just the commentators. I can't tell if the crowd is on tenterhooks or I just can't hear them.
Me have ball? Me have ball! Me not run fast. Me try kick.
Italy really read much of that attack very well, but no way you can keep that up. And France are over.
Scrum. Brb, gonna do some weeding.
Great take for the mark.
And then a kick to nothing.
France getting a few warnings.
Impressed with consistency of Italian lineouts today so far.
Incredible acceleration. Great try from France, from almost nothing, just bang, gap, legs, cover, support, try. Gorgeous.
Oh yeeeeeees, France being France with some risky play off of a lovely kick down the field and Italy are over. Say what you like, they put the pressure on and get rewards.
Italy nick a turnover but wow they look tired getting formed to support it.
Neti on for Gros, not sure why, with just a minute or to to go in this half.
Italy have moves and form, but need some new tools to pick the lock on France defense. Hopefully coach has some thoughts in the changing room. I anticipate a different Italian team in the second half.
