@mn5 I don't know, pretty big/long torso, not much neck, and have you considered that chin?!
I’ve never really looked at his jaw sorry

@mn5 then you've been ignoring a helluva lot of screentime!
He’s always moving too fast and too busy, a sure sign of a good player.

FYI, for those UK ferners, looking about it seems this will be broadcast on Prime from what I can find.
Yep, Saturday's game is live on Amazon Prime. But if Wales win the highlights will be on every channel there at least once a week for the next 30-50 years.
A one point win and three million Welsh are having the one of the greatest days of their lives. Hope the ABs ain't taking this one for granted. Enormous setup against a fired-up 6 Nations champions from last Saturday's exhibition game in Washington.

As much as I agree with your take on the the ramifications of winning, we won't come close.
Well unless you get 1 maybe 2 red cards.
ABs in 3rd gear.

With rain in the forecast are we expecting the roof to be closed?
Home team's call but I think it likely.
Away team's call
-
@mikethesnow Then it is almost certain to be closed.

You can pick your Wales starting XV here.

Still looks a very good team, especially the forwards, but bench won't be as experienced as that of the 6 Nations side.

With the opening game falling outside the agreed international window, Wales head coach Wayne Pivac will be without England based players Dan Biggar, Taulupe Faletau, Louis Rees-Zammit, Callum Sheedy, Nick Tompkins, Christ Tshiunza and Thomas Youngs.
There are also fitness doubts over other members of his 38-strong squad, including Ellis Jenkins and Liam Williams
I'll admit to not having heard of the last four of those seven listed English based players.
How many of them are first choice?
And also not fully across Jenkins (although @MiketheSnow did I see you pick him?).
So how weakened will Wales be really?
