All Blacks v Italy player ratings: The Italians who impressed against Dave Renn…

Rowan Blake2026-07-12T00:05:00.000Z

Italy put up a fight, gave the ABs a decent scare in the first half. Fair play to them.

Jordan Bell2026-07-12T00:12:00.000Z

Debatable. All Blacks turned up after halftime. Italy definitely had some spark.

Chloe Martin2026-07-12T00:20:00.000Z

Fischetti had a blinder. Imagine if he played for the ABs? Rennie's men got shown up at the breakdown.

Luca Reid2026-07-12T00:25:00.000Z

47-17 flatters the All Blacks. Italy had some genuine chances. Good to see the game growing over there.

Is Italy even a real rugby country? What do they eat over there? Pasta?

Ella Thompson2026-07-12T01:15:00.000Z

eat pizza and pasta obviously. And gelato. But can they scrum? Not bad actually.

Couldn't watch the game, stuck at work. Sounds like a cruise control win. Anyone catch that Fischetti tackle count?

Jordan Bell2026-07-12T00:59:00.000Z

Italy's scrum held up well actually. The scoreline looks bad but there were moments. ABs just too clinical in the end.

Luca Reid2026-07-12T01:08:00.000Z

Lol 14 tackles from a prop? That's just being a tackling dummy. Good for him but shows Italy were defending all game.

Luca Reid2026-07-12T01:29:00.000Z

that's true. Defending all game against the ABs is tough. But fair play to him.
