12. Scott Williams
11. Tom James
10. Rhys Priestland
9. Gareth Davies

You will notice that certain BIG names like Captain Sam Warburton, Alun-Wyn Jones, Dan Biggar, Rhys Webb, Jamie Roberts, Jonathan Davies, George North, Liam Williams, Gethin Jenkins, and so on, are missing.

This is because they are being conserved for the bigger Test match v The All Blacks at the weekend. This "Friendly" will give the younger, less experienced boys a chance to enjoy some great rugby and gain experience, while protecting our "big boys" from injury.

Good Evening Rugby Fans :-) :-) :-) <3

I will probably be on my ownsome again tomorrow morning but


Tuesday Morning (tomorrow) June 14th

WALES<3 v WAIKATO CHIEFS ...... Kick Off 8.35 am (UK time)


LIVE TV COVERAGE .... Only SKY SPORTS 1 AGAIN I'm afraid! :-| :-|

I will check out Radio / Online Radio Links, but as this is not a Test Game, there probably won't be!

Radio Jem...
I am hoping to be here in the Radio Jem Studio in the morning,;-) ;-)
So if anyone feels like joining me in Cheering Wales on, or just to pull my leg (in the nicest possible way of course) ;-)... please do!



SO WHO ARE THE WAIKATO CHIEFS?

The Chiefs (formerly known as the Waikato Chiefs and officially called the Gallagher Chiefs for sponsorship reasons) are a professional rugby union team based in Hamilton, New Zealand.

Their primary home ground is Waikato Stadium. The Chiefs play in black, red and yellow coloured jerseys.

The team competes in the Super Rugby competition, previously known as the Super 12 from 1996 to 2005 and Super 14 from 2006 to 2010. The Chiefs are one of the competition's five New Zealand sides.
