Writing in the Wales on Sunday, Barry John backs Wales to make a big impression in this year's Rugby World Cup.
"It is time for the greatest rugby show on earth again.
"And I am quietly confident Wales can do well in this World Cup – and I expect them to qualify from a tough pool involving South Africa, Samoa, Fiji and Namibia.
"This has to be the best prepared Welsh side at any World Cup given the evidence from the warm-up games.
"While they might be lacking in creativity and the subtle side of the game, they are very strong in defence and the contact area.
"I have seen enough to see these boys are mentally tough enough and there is no problem with the physicality."
