Yes he was consistent. Once that first game had gone he should have selected a young team and stuck with it.

I will support Wales but won’t be too bothered if we lose. I am convinced the side we put out last week against Munster would beat this Welsh side.

The amount of guff because the greatest 9 ever is back in a Welsh Jersey is gobsmaking.

Gatland can rely on players like our feeble giant beard , kickaholic Owen and tanman Webb - excellent rugby players in their prime ,who could drag any team from the jaws of defeat to world domination, honest LOL

In fairness the ball Owen had from Williams was so slow he didn't have much choice.

Will Gatland turn out to be the last straw clutching of a tainted regime and they all go down together?

Well the day of reckoning has arrived. Will Wales have one hand on the wooden spoon and a lowest ever World ranking come 1700 hours? Capouzo's absence gives us a better chance for sure. I expect a very nervy affair, another card for Liam and more woe for Gatland. Hope I am wrong on all counts.

I don't know if I quite agree with that RR. Front 5 is pretty even I would say with their back row superior to ours mainly because they have the correct balance - Negri is a hard carrier, Connone, the young 8 is a huge presence going forward & their captain at 7 is a terrier at the breakdown. They have the edge in pace & control at half back & their midfield is solid if unspectacular. Our best chance would have been to try to exploit the 13 & wide channels but inexplicably we have left our most explosive runner on the bench.

Do Hawkins & Grady have enough guile to exploit them. Add into the mix a very canny coach - Crowley who spotted Irish problems in the 13 channel with two 12's playing and set his team up so well & the more I dwell the worse I feel.
