Six Nations: In-form Wales have Grand Slam a-Peel!

With two wins under their belt, Warren Gatland's championship hopefuls take on Italy, a side who have been a thorn in their progress over the last couple of years. Could this be another year of the Dragon like 2005?

I’m going to the match today.What match?You mean there’s more than one?

'James Hook has the composure and skill that can be developed in a team situation that puts the emphasis on group work rather than solo pieces'

Excuse my tunnel vision: I’m Welsh. We’ve won our first two games of the Six Nations Championship and we could do the Grand Slam.

No, wait, we won the first two games and one of them was against England. At Twickenham. We’re definitely going to do the Grand Slam. All we have to do is beat Italy, Ireland and France. And it’s against Italy in Cardiff today. Italy have been the thorn in the paw of the dragon for the last two years. Is this year going to be different? Oh yes, of course it is.

We have a new coach who’s kicking butt, and some players recovering what they’d lost. Dwayne Peel, who’s more of the boy-next-door than hunky Mike Phillips, seems to have got back the pazazz he had previously.
