Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  Kua akiaki a Leonardo Ghiraldini i a Itari kia 'whakapono tonu' i a ratou e aro atu ana ki nga kaiwhakataetae taitara RBS 6 Nations Wales i te Rahoroi kaore o raatau rangatira me te nama o te ao e waru a Sergio Parisse. Ko te wharanga waewae i pa ki a ia i te hinganga 29-0 i te kainga ki a France i te mutunga o te wiki kua pahemo a Parisse i te kemu whakamutunga a Itari o te pakanga a nga Whenua e Ono. Ko Ghiraldini, te kairau o Leicester, ka mau i te taatai i Stadio Olimpico i tana korenga, me Itari e rapu ana i tetahi wikitoria ka pakaru i te pukapuka ahua o nga Whenua e Ono o tenei waa. Ko te wahine kairau o Itari a Leonardo Ghiraldini e kii ana me whakapono tonu a Itari ki a raatau kaha ina tutaki ratou ki Wales. Kāore ngā Itariana i te whai i tō rātau rangatira rangatira a Sergio Parisse mō tā rātau kēmu whakamutunga o te whakataetae. 'Ko Sergio tētahi o ngā kaitākaro whitu pai rawa atu o te ao,' i kī a Ghiraldini i tētahi huihuinga pānui i Roma i te Paraire. He tino mate nui ia ki a mātau, engari i te wā kotahi, he whai wāhitanga tēnei ki ētahi atu kia mau i te kawenga. Ka taea e Sergio te tākaro i ngā kapa ā-motu katoa o te ao, engari me whakapono tonu tātou. 'Ka puta ētahi wā o te pēhanga, engari me mau tonu tō tātou hinengaro mō ia hēkona o te kēmu. Ka taea tonu e mātou te tākaro i tētahi kēmu pai me te kore a Sergio.' E toru noa iho ngā piro a Itari i roto i ā rātau tukinga kāinga e rua i tēnei wā, i te wā i patua rātau e Ingarangi 52-11 i te Stadio Olimpico i tō rātau tukinga whakamutunga o te whakataetae i te wā whakamutunga. Ka whati a Parisse i a France, ā, kua kore ia e whai wāhi ki te kēmu ki a Wales i Roma. I te ngaro o Parisse, ko Ghiraldini hei rangatira mo Itari, a kua karanga ia ki tana kapa kia whakaatu i o raatau kaha pono. Ahakoa e whakaaro ana rātou ki te patu i a Scotland ki Murrayfield i tēnei wā, kua kitea te pakanga hei putea hua kē atu. 'Me whakaatu e maatau he kapa pai ake taatau i te mea i puta mai ki a France,' i kii a Ghiraldini. 'Ko ta mātou wikitoria i Scotland i muri i ngā hinganga kino e rua, ā, kua whakaaturia e mātou he kaha mātou ki te wikitōria i ngā wā kino. Kāore au i te mōhio he aha te tūmanako a Wales, engari e hiahia ana mātou ki te whakaatu i tō mātou whakapehapeha. Kāore mātou e whakaaro ana ki te whakakahore...
I hinga nui a Itari ki Wīwī i te wiki kua hipa, i te wā i whara ai a Sergio Parisse. E mea ana a Leonard Ghrialdini ka taea e tana kapa te hoki mai. Ka karanga a Ghiraldini ki te kapa kia whakaatu he pai ake a rātau i te kēmu a Wīwī i whakaaturia.
