Six Nations Rugby - 2010 - Ireland v Italy

Logo for Six Nations Rugby - 2010 - Ireland v Italy

Gabby Logan introduces rugby union coverage as the 2010 Six Nations gets under way at Croke Park, where last year's Grand Slam winners Ireland host Italy. Declan Kidney will be expecting his side to begin the defence of their crown with a convincing victory, especially as Ireland have never lost to Italy in the Six Nations era. Kidney's side ran out 38-9 winners when the teams met in Rome last year but the scoreline flattered the visitors, who had started shakily and had to soak up some strong pressure from the Italians in the first half.
