Vi riporto una lettera di uno scozzese che ho trovato su planet rugby.
<BR>
<BR>\"So far this Six Nations, only two sides have really performed at or above their abilities - Ireland and Italy. I would expect [Italy coach] John Kirwan is keeping his powder dry for next weekend against Wales, which could be the first Six Nations away win for Italy and would complete what he intended to do last year against Scotland and Wales. As a Scot, but a rugby fan first, I enjoy watching Italy, who are actually playing good rugby and am hopeful that Scotland will generate a team in the next 18 months who can again be classed alongside the other Northern sides. Until then though I doubt if we\'ll even deserve the Wooden Spoon we\'re going to get this year!\"
