My favourite number 10 (fly half) Ospreys' Dan Biggar kicks off!
It feels very strange not having one team to clearly support:-S :-S :-S
THE UNCAPPED PLAYER JORDAN WILLIAMS SCORES FIRST TRY FOR THE PROBABLES!
Dan Biggar just misses the conversion:-(
Probables-5 .. Possibles-0
|
|
A very strong Probables side. Only player uncapped for Wales is Scarlets' Jordan Williams.
|
|
THEY ARE COMING OUT!
The first Trial in 14 years is about to begin!
|
|
Neither Sam Warburton nor Leigh Halfpenny will be fit to go to South Africa :-( :-(
SAM- The Wales Back Row and Captain sustained a shoulder injury in the Six Nations Championship, as did Wales' Kicker Leigh Halfpenny.

Sell Out at The Liberty Stadium in Swansea tonight!
31 men are needed to fill the places for The South African Tour- It's going to be a big night!
There will be no holds barred, as friends and team mates, go head to head! Lots of points to prove tonight!
THERE ARE NO FRIENDS WHEN THE WHISTLE BLOWS :-| :-| :-D
