James Hook the utility back who never gets a game.
Hook should have replaced Priestland on 60 minutes when Wales may have had a chance to get something out of the game. They couldn't have done any worse at that stage, so what is Gatland's problem with him, and if he does have a problem why bother having him on the bench and not using him?
Hook is a flare player, at least he may have given some excitement from a Welsh point of view!
Ireland were tremendous today, totally took George North out of the game, were disciplined, and it was a really strong forward display.
