Ireland 29-11 Italy: Defending champions Ireland get the 2010 Six Nations Championship under way against Italy at Croke Park in Dublin
Ireland's Andrew Trimble breaks up the left wing in the build-up to Jamie Heaslip's opening try after 14 minutes as the visitors, who have never beaten Ireland in the Six Nations, make a dismal start to the game
After Ronan O'Gara's 10th-minute penalty, Heaslip's fourth Test try, converted by O'Gara, takes Ireland into a 10-0 lead, although the hosts are largely feeding off Italian errors
Tomas O'Leary scores his first try for his country to give Ireland a 21-3 lead before O'Gara adds the conversion to put the hosts in command against an Italian side with a malfunctioning line-out
Italy are penalised at the scrum yet again to allow O'Gara to slot his sixth kick out of six courtesy of another penalty and move Ireland into a seemingly unassailable 26-11 lead
Declan Kidney's Ireland never really progress through the gears during a poor second half but do enough to beat a disappointing Italian outfit 29-11
