[QUOTE="Every Time Ref, post: 748033, member: 71826"] My biggest worry is far and away the breakdown, especially if Wales decide to play Warburton and Tipuric together, along with Gethin. My smallest worry is the back three, from what I understand that's likely to be North (pure class), Cuthbert (arguably the worst player in Tier 1 international rugby ATM) and whoever the hell is still standing. In the last 2 6N games we've kept Wales in games we should have dominated by more because we've given away too many penalties for Halfpenny to kick. Biggar is not Halfpenny but anyone thinking Biggar's goalkicking is a weakness is deluded. We will still need top discipline to win this game, and it won't be a walkover, injuries or not. By the way, if any of the players I've mentioned aren't available please feel free to let me know, I genuinely can't keep up with all these Welsh injuries! Before the Uruguay game my Welsh mate was asked what he'd consider a good result, and he said "two injuries, 3 max". Someone upthread mentioned Tipuric in the centres - is that a genuine possibility? Using who ... ? Barritt ... ? No power in the midfield was a major part of why we looked mediocre against Fiji IMO True. And depressing. [/QUOTE]
