Check out the Italy team news ahead of their next Six Nations 2023 game this weekend.
Kieran Crowley has announced a slightly re-jigged line-up as Italy prepare to face Six Nations favourites Ireland in Rome this weekend.
The Italians put up a stern fight against France in their opener before falling to a narrow defeat, while they stuck 14 points on the board against England to mark signs of progress as a rugby nation.
The big news is that Paolo Garbisi is back in at fly-half for Italy and Ireland must do all they can to avoid becoming complacent ahead of this one.
