**1420: ** Looks like a crackerjack atmosphere at the Stadio Flaminio, and plenty of England fans in, no doubt about that. Justin Marshall on BBC One wants to see the England three-quarters get their hands on the ball today, and I don’t think he’s alone… Jerry Guscott thinks Danny Care at scrum-half is key…From Max in Lytham:“Well I was going to watch the live coverage on BBC One, but after seeing Inverdale’s shirt, I’ve had to resort back to your internet coverage!”**1412: **[Lawrence Dallaglio is cycling from Rome to Edinburgh with Lee Dixon and Les Ferdinand](http://www.paklinks.com/gs/<CPS:EMBEDDEDMEDIA id=), among others, stopping off in Paris, London, Cardiff, Edinburgh and Dublin, on what order I don’t know. **1408: ** I agree with the 606ers below, you’d like to think England will try to lob it about a bit today. They’ve got the players, and I’ll be very interested to see how Riki Flutey gets on, I’d like him to come over all Simon Rattle and take up the conductor’s baton.From armchairstrategist on 606:“I hope we are not going to witness England trying to bulldoze their way to victory otherwise it is going to be a most tedious encounter.”**1359: ** It’s fair to say Italy are in a bit of a rough trot - they’ve won one of their last 15 Tests. England, meanwhile, have lost their last six away matches, five of which were under Martin Johnson.**1346: ** Just so you know, our TV and online coverage starts at 1400 GMT, as well as 5 live extra, so if you are right of mind, you’ll probably be watching or listening to that instead of reading this… **1342: ** Fifteen times Italy have played England and England have won every one of them. Leicester tight-head Dan Cole is making his first start for the visitors, while Worcester loose-head Matt Mullan is on the bench and in line to make his Test debut. For Italy, Mauro Bergamasco will not be playing at 9…From Metal-Tiger on 606:“England’s performance against Italy is going to be heavily criticised come what may. If England run riot, running in 10 tries it will be because Italy were rubbish. If Italy put in a great performance and contain England it will be because England were rubbish.”**1330: ** Salute. Italy v England in Rome on this Valentine’s afternoon, and the most romantic thing the players at the Stadio Flaminio can look forward to is a set of size 12 studs to the goolies. Italy have never beaten England in 15 attempts, and judging on their performance against Ireland last week, that’s unlikely to change today.This article is from the BBC News website. © British Broadcasting Corporation, The BBC is not responsible for the content of external internet sites.
