[QUOTE="dullonien, post: 492431, member: 13739"] Wales. Not sure what size squad will be taken to Aus, but I'll select a 35 man squad: Props: Gethin Jenkins, Adam Jones, Ryan Bevington, Paul James, Rhodri Jones. Hookers: Matthew Rees, Ken Owens, Richard Hibbard (looks like Bennett will be injured). Locks: Alun-Wyn Jones, Luke Charteris, Ian Evans, Bradley Davies. Loose forwards: Dan Lydiate, Sam Warburton, Toby Faletau, Ryan Jones, Justin Tipuric, Aaron Shingler. Scrum halves: Mike Phillips, Lloyd Williams, Rhys Webb. Outside halves: Rhys Priestland, James Hook, A.N.Other (Biggar, Tovey, Morgan?). Centres: Jamie Roberts, Jon Davies, Ashley Beck, Scott Williams, Gavin Henson. Outside backs: George North, Alex Cuthbert, Leigh Halfpenny, Liam Williams, Harry Robinson, Lee Byrne. The squad looks pretty settled, especially the forwards. Turnbull and McCusker are a little unlucky to be missing out, but we've got so much depth at 6 and 7 at the moment, that there's simply no room for them. We need to think about developing another 8 at some stage, but Ryan Jones is good cover at the moment, and there's always Andy Powell if needs be. In the backs, we're short a third fly-half. Considering that neither Tovey or Matthew Morgan are getting any gametime, it looks like Biggar will go, but I'd personally prefer to see someone else. I'm not sure if Stoddart is meant to be fit in time, but even if he is, it'll be a little early for him. Liam Williams is still playing well at the Scarlets, and I don't see any reason not to take Robinson again, unless Gatland would prefer to re-introduce Will Harries. [/QUOTE]
