I don't mind which international shirt he wears, that's his choice. I think if he does go on to play for Italy he will shine in an average team. But maybe that's what needs to happen, otherwise Italy will never kick on.
As long as his choice doesn't impact his Gloucester career.

Or until Gatland becomes the Italian coach!

I mind. We have seen what happened with Moriarty. Play for Italy or England, I don’t mind, but please keep away from Wales.

I wasn't aware he had any qualification to play for Wales? What is the criteria? I would rather he qualified for England as we then get better payments from the RFU if he is ever picked. I am unclear from this thread if we are certain he is tied to Italy or not?

Conor O'Shea was at the Zebre game to see him play. (Think it was that one)

He might make a pretty decent replacement for Sergio Parisse

Love to say I told you so. He's just been named in the Italy six nations squad.

He has been included in Italy's Six Nations training squad. So I guess that settles that conundrum!
