Decimated Italy prepare for Cardiff match
Italy coach Brad Johnstone is preparing a decimated team for this weekend's Six Nations clash against Wales after losing three of his men from the side who beat Scotland.
Johnstone has been forced to re-shuffled his squad after losing flanker and former skipper Massimo Giovanelli with a partially detached retina in his right eye, centre Manuel Dallan with a shoulder injury and prop Giampiero De Carli, who scored a try against Scotland, for personal reasons.
The trio have been replaced by Livorno's Andrea De Rossi, Roma's Giovanni Raineri and Alessandro Moreno of French club Agen.
