Calf strain, rugby pain

As the wales team will now be turning thoughts to Twickers, they'll now start training.... So, Which of the welsh players will have a calf strain and pull out of the match?

Ian Evans is my guess

??????????? Predicting what type of injury any given Welsh player might have before the English game?

There must be an underlying point you are trying to make Slarti, but I can't see it...it'll need clarification.

Underlying point -> my perception is Wales seem to get a lot of calf strains during training

Oh yes...and good point. There does seem to be lot of them. I'd assume it's the intensity either of the weight training or the speed-work they do now. I think we all know it is tougher on them than anything they've endured before for International training (players themselves saying it) and therefore, some will meet the challenge and others will suffer. I'm watching Gatland's methods closely...not just how players are performing now, as Internationals, but how they perform when they return to regions. There are benefits sure, but there could also be lingering minuses.

Gethin Jenkins - great player, calfs of a meercat!

Hope it's not gethin, he's the one player in the squad who doesn't need to train!
