As a Wales fan, I know he has worked wonders for us and is an intelligent man. He wouldn't drop a "legend" like O'Driscoll for nothing.

Garland is a Kiwi. To them winning is the only aim, he would have dropped every welsh player in the squad if he thought it was the right thing to do to secure victory.

Trouble is the World Cup is still over two years away and his fantastic welsh side may have already 'peaked' something New Zealand have suffered from in past years. Therefore, expect to see some big welsh names missing for next year's six nations, whilst the younger English lads should have benefitted greatly from the tour.

Well, that's my hope anyway
