Wales ran out easy winners at the end of their Six Nations first-round match against Italy in Rome, on a scoreline of 33-7. It wasn't all plain sailing as Italy were 7-3 up at half time, but at the end of a scrappy encounter Wales' superior quality simply proved too much as tries from Jonathan Davies, Liam Williams and George North sealed the victory in the end.
North's try was certainly the pick of the bunch. The game was ticking into the 78th minute when North picked up the ball well inside his own half of the pitch. He absolutely burned all the absolutely knackered Italy chasers and was pretty well shagged himself by the time he managed to get to the line.
George North try
Animal.
There was also another sporting enactment of the 'Salt Bae' celebration. Arsenal's Danny Welbeck whipped it out after scoring against Southampton in the FA Cup, and Jonathan Davies did the same after grounding a try for the Welsh.
