[QUOTE="Peat, post: 839315, member: 42330"] Have they? Since 2013, Wales haven't won the 6N, and they've won 10 games over 3 tournaments, and I'm guessing their SH record has been ugly. They've been also-rans and that's what they're playing like now. How many members of the current side played significant parts in the Wales team that came 3rd in the 2011 WC and won back to back 6Ns in 2012/13? Because by my count, there's plenty who haven't, like pretty much all of the current tight five and half-back options. Most of the outside backs were involved, but the survivors from that period look pretty much physically shot to a man. That only really leaves the back row as a unit that's shown themselves to be better and still be as good now. This isn't a new thought, but one I've had for a while, getting louder and louder as more tight five guys and more outside backs look done. [/QUOTE]
