Six NationsThursday, 09 February 2017 at 09:44
In the end, it was the rout everyone expected, although at one stage the hosts were 20-17 down with half an hour to go.
But England then obliterated the Azzurri 80-23 after scoring seven second-half tries.
The records tumbled too; it was England's highest score in the championship, the biggest winning margin of all-time, and it was also an individual masterclass from Jonny Wilkinson
He finished the game with 35 points, eclipsing previous record of 30.

- Jordie Barrett over Damian de Allende is far from being correct. The hype around Dupont is also overreaching, he's probably 4th in the world and has been since the 2023 WC. He also avoids certain matchups which is strange. The rest of the list is pretty good apart from minor subjective biases.JasonMarlow16-09-2026
