The Gatlandball game played by Wales is very predictable, however.  It will work if Wales are significantly better than the opposition, so I'd expect it to work against Italy, but when the opposition are fairly well matched, then a smart gameplay can negate it. 

Ireland under Joe Schmidt did it last year, England did it this year and on both occasions Wales didn't have a plan B.  Scotland's Vern Cotter is also a smart coach and I'm sure he knows full well how to stop Wales but it remains to be seen if Scotland are quite good enough or used to Cotter's methods yet.
