Being Welsh he might just show a little bias against us if we are chasing the Welsh for the Championship...imo. Anyway looks like we will be chasing the Irish, which I would prefer tbh.
Likely to need more than that when Ireland have finished. Having the Welsh referee Nigel Owens is unlikely to do us any favours either. Best hope that we are chasing Ireland and not Wales otherwise the ref will probably have more influence than we would like.
