Italy will play Internationals other than 6Ns in other stadiums in Italy :

Argies (Verrona, Fiji (Modène and Aus (Florence) ..

Good move ?

As long as they get decent numbers i cant see why not. After the turnout for the NZ game (in Milan) they must have a good chance of spreading the word.

Florence was set for Saffer int'l last year.
But Mr Della Valle (shoemaker and Fiorentina
owner) said no. The test moved to Udine.
Not that sure Aussies will play in Artemio
Franchi stadium.

pity the game was pretty poor, after the first few Tri Nations, and the attacking style players, and style, AB's and Aussie are playing a better spectical if a game was this year you would think

Its odd given rugby heartlands in Italy are in the North that all the games are played further south miles away from that. A few games in the Milan region or elsewhere up north would really help.

(of course the fact Italy are going rapidly backwards in terms of performance doesn't help either)

Good stuff Italia! The potential of the Italian market is HYAWGE! Break new ground Italy!

Other than footy, whats the competition like for rugby? Other countries would have rugby league (Aus & NZ), ice-hockey (Canada), aussie rules or american footy to compete with for example.

Well gladitorial combat and throwing Christians to the lions hasnt been on the cards for many a year now so im not sure what those Romans get up to for their sporting kicks!

Some tips for English-speaking people.

Gay jester wrestling? Too much chiante and grappa me thinks.

crikey thats brutal i like the way the refs have a big feathered hat though perhaps we could petition to have them introduced in rugby

^Thats a great idea!
