rugbybutten - thanks for the startling research! Something of an eye-opener.

bruno74 - having watched Delve on Saturday night, I must agree. As well as his player skills he has the ability to lift his team. He also reads the game very well and makes good decisions based on that. Mind you, that's just from recent form. The Rebels earlier this year were dreadful, and pre-season were even more horrible still.

Nothing puts a strain on an Aussie Commentary box. The more limited the vocabulary the better.

Very much looking forward to this series.

Can anyone tell me, what were the Welsh internationals that featured -

the most Joneses on the field at any one time

the most Williamses ...

the most Wiliamses and Joneses together.

Bonus points for Bill as a first name, and a triple word score for any William Williams. My point is that this team isn't going to place much pressure on the Australian commentary box.
