The Welsh squad...

Has Warren Gatland screwed up by leaving Mile Phillips and Richard Hibbard out of the final squad...? I know Hooky isn't going either, but I wasn't that suprised about his omission, despite the fact he's a brilliant utility back and a great loyal servant to the game (sadly he's been on the fringes too long now).

Anyone care to try to second-guess Gatland on the final players to be left out...?

Phillips service very slow and agree, hibbard doesn't offer enough around pitch throwing suspect at times too and hooks problem is he doesn't stick to the gatland game plan, hook plays heads up rugby which gatland hates.

For me anscombe should be no where near the squad too

I'm glad Hook and Phillips been dropped. I thought Wales played better when they went off.

But I thought Hibbard would be in the squad as a impact player not a starter.

Philips is just to slow to play the ball... Hibbard I'm slightly suprised at, mostly because I'm not sure who'd I'd rate to take his place

Hook is too inconsistent, flashes of brilliance but mostly mediocre.

Could make for an interesting squad though.
