“Last week, I sat behind the posts at the Millennium Stadium willing Alun Wyn Jones to the try line; willing the referee to whack out that yellow card on numerous occasions; willing the Gods to look down kindly on the men in red for just one moment.
This week, I could actually get the chance to come face-to-face with the man behind the mystery – Warren Gatland himself.
I am lucky enough to have the opportunity to watch the Samoa game this Friday and then be allowed access to the post-match press conference.
After the heroics of the Welsh team last Saturday, naturally I am as excited as every other die-hard Wales fan to see how the guys line-up against the big Pacific Islanders, and even who is going to line-up. And if all goes to plan I will be able to get the thinking behind all this straight from the source.
Words cannot express how excited I am for this awesome chance, and I will be writing a match report and a report of my experience after Friday! This is going to be an amazing birthday weekend.”
