[QUOTE="danny, post: 200808"] But this was the last game he played for Wales against a much vaunted front row and scrum. To be honest, if we loose a bit in the scrum but compete at the break down, with Rhys Rhomas hitting more rucks than Adam Jones could only dream of doing, I'll be a very happy man.
