Hate to say it but Wales will benefit from a young new talented back-rower called Gareth Delve who plays for my local club Bath. Gareth has pace to burn, on Boxing Day I watched him outrun Thinus (?) Delport (SA winger) over 70 metres when playing against Worcester to score an individual try (fair enough he had a 10m start but there was never any doubt and Delport is no slow coach!). GD is going to be useful in covering this gap for Wales as although he has been keeping Zac Feaunatti out of the No8 slot at Bath he does play anywhere in the back row.
