I think it's great news. He's still world class, top 5 wingers in the world when healthy. Would be stupid to not include him. Habana hasn't had the best year, you think PDV is not selecting him WC1969? His experience alone and game changing abilities make him a must in the squad if he's healthy.

This could be a David Campese at 1995 or the break could be have done him the world of good. Is it a coincidence that Wales have struggled when he's not around. I bet I could still find 20 odd pieces of skill and line breaks in the last two years that only he could do.

I'd take him, he has the ability to do things other wingers don't. Just don't be afraid to drop him if it's not working out, but I guess that's what the warm up tests are for!!!
