The Sydney Morning Herald's Greg Growden repors as Australia prepare to tackle Wales in Cardiff.
"Wales coach Warren Gatland arrived wearing a Shane Williams mask and then tore it off to put James O'Connor and David Pocock on notice, explaining that stifling these two key Wallabies is critical if the home team wanted to win at Millennium Stadium on Saturday.
"Gatland, a strong candidate to be the British and Irish Lions coach for their 2013 Australian tour, was at his mischievous best when announcing the Wales Test line-up on a day that had been officially renamed at their team camp as ''Shane Williams day''.
"To honour the celebrated Welsh winger's final Test this weekend, the players wore Williams masks all day. Williams was allowed to announce the Test team to the players, while he took over as coach at their training session. There was also fun and games in the team room."
