[QUOTE="leicester, post: 131571"] I'd love to see Wales top the pool but I just can't see them losing to the Wallabies at the moment. The match should be a spectacle, particularly if Wales play to their strengths and start to run the ball. For my money, there would be more entertainment value from Wales if... [i]a) Stephen Jones rediscovers the linebreaking form he displayed v France in 2005; or[/i] [i]B) Jenkins selects Hook at 10 to run the show.[/i] Trouble is, I wouldn't bet on either at the moment. Jones is out of International form and yet remains a favourite with Gareth Jenkins it seems. IF Hook were to start at 10, I'd even take a punt on putting Henson back in at 12. I think he could well rise to the occasion if given the chance on the RWC stage. He has the potential and can play the kind of game that gets Wales firing when on form. There were glimmers of that old form returning against AUS in June, where he was one of Wales better players for my money. [/QUOTE]
