Coverage of the annual Six Nations rugby union tournament
Italy are used to being the support act at this point of the Six Nations – but Wales? Normally by now they’re the headliners, forcing their way to the front of the Six Nations stage. But not this year. Wales have played in two of the best games of the season – and lost them both. Against England their attack failed to break a ferocious defence. Against Ireland, they never had the ball long enough to quite turn the tide. With both games decided on such fine margins, it’s all the crueller for Welsh fans that with two games still to go, their tournament is effectively dead.
