Rivalries renewed

Wales centre Jamie Roberts talks up the England versus Wales clash with Wales Online's Gareth Griffiths.

"Wales centre Jamie Roberts has insisted Saturday’s World Cup warm-up against England will match the intensity of a Six Nations showdown between the two bitter rivals.

Warren Gatland’s men start their three-match World Cup preparations at Twickenham this weekend the first game in a double-header against Martin Johnson’s men before Argentina’s visit to Cardiff.

The Welsh players know their World Cup selection fate depends on the next few weeks before the 30-man party is selected on August 22 with England the first test.

“Twickenham is sold out. It’s Wales v England. Boys are playing for World Cup places and the chance to realise their dreams,” explained Roberts."
