I'm optimistic however props will have to put in a big shift as there is not much on the bench to replace them. Plenty of experience on the pitch and great to see Navidi back.
Dewch mlaen Cymry!!!

Enjoy the rugby chat before the amoeba squad arrive with their predictable drivel. Amoeba as in one brain cell between them.
Back on Earth, I count 7 players who are 30 or more, but we'll see. Would have liked JEvans to start.

Following Pivac's team announcement, the Irish team will not sleep well on Saturday night. Can you imagine the embarrassment if something went tragically wrong and you had to tell your grandkids you lost to that lot.

Two strong sides.

From a Welsh perspective - I just hope the ref is on top of Healy’s driving across and Porter’s illegal scrummaging bind.

Moreover, Ireland’s ridiculous illegal clearing out. Latch, flop, seal off & flying in off feet.

Quality side, but they get away with everything at the breakdown.

I’m sure Pivac will be raising both in the pre -meeting the ref.

Which doesn't say a lot to be brutally frank. North was good several years ago on the wing. Now, too many miles on clock, too many concussions and too slow.

Wales have 5 starters that were in the 2012 grandslam winning team, 9 years ago.

I would say this shows a lack of freshness in the Welsh team. Need to find a replacement for AWJ.

I think Ned the Donkey from Rhossili is available at the moment. Ok, he is over 40 years old, but still will be faster than AWJ, and probably will drop the ball less too. Removed

Wales were dreadful in the autumn internationals. Gatland and Edwards well and truly jumped ship leaving Pivac with an ageing shell of a team and no young quality coming through. Its looking grim for The Principality. A wooden spoon shoe in and even the hapless Italians fancying their chances ! Removed
