Six Nations 2024: Pick your Wales XV to face Italy in Cardiff

by

Rio Dyer scored Wales’ opening try against France
Venue: Principality Stadium, Cardiff Date: Saturday, 16 March Kick-off: 14:15 GMT
Coverage: Watch live on BBC One, BBC iPlayer and online from 13:45 GMT; listen on BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra, BBC Radio Wales & Radio Cymru; text commentary and highlights on BBC Sport website and app.

After four defeats in this year’s Six Nations, who would you pick for Wales as they look to beat Italy and avoid the Wooden Spoon?

Faced with the prospect of finishing bottom for the first time in 21 years, should head coach Warren Gatland keep faith in his new generation or draft in some experience to avoid a whitewash?

Would you recall centre pair George North and Nick Tompkins, or do you back Joe Roberts and Owen Watkin who were surprise starters for the 45-24 defeat by France?

Flanker Tommy Reffell was forced off in the second half of that game with a knee injury, so is a doubt to face Italy six days later, as is hooker Ryan Elias who was a late withdrawal against France with a hamstring problem.

This is your opportunity to select what you think is the best Wales XV to try and break their duck at the Principality Stadium on Saturday.
