14 Nov Wales v Canada

22 Nov Wales v New Zealand

Well my first thought was Sth Africa, but they gouge, shoulder charge and bite their way to a win

My local club side has knocked off the three prize scalps here. Yes it was a long time ago but never under estimate the Welsh. Home ground advantage plus the fact it will be towards the end of the Southern Hemisphere teams year, plus the confidence of the grand slam win at the six nations will help.

Was it 1 win and 1 draw for Wales against Australia in Wales since 1983?? I'm sure those Fijians didn't underestimate the Welsh at the RWC last year

Or the English against the Wallabies. New coach seemed to give them the spark they needed, pity we didn't have him at the world cup. It's was pretty much the same team that won this years six nations grand slam.

Newport RFC. Producing quality hookers since 1874.

30th of October 1963
Newport 3 All Blacks 0

23rd of November 1957
Newport 11 Australia 0

12th of November 1969
Newport 11 South Africa 6

Yes yes I know it was a long time ago but you tube still shows the All Blacks game. It would be the same as the Force beating the AB's or the Boks, great history for a club no matter when it happened.

i follow the scarlets, and even i think 1972 is a long time ago, back in those days most players worked locally and then played on the weekend, the game back them is far removed from todays........the welsh should win 3 of the november tests against weakened touring sides.....

One night i was looking to piss off another welsh lad and had a look at their recent 6 nations form and i noticed the last grand slam (2005) they won was a flash in the pan of exellance. Hopefully they can maintain that after this years 6 nations instead of slipping back into the mire
