Rowntree 'has Faith' In England Front Row
Scrum coach Graham Rowntree has stated he thinks England are well prepared to face Wales' front row when the two teams meet each other this weekend in the Six Nations.
Wales are likely to announced Gethin Jenkins, Adam Jones and Matthew Rees - who all play for the Lions - as their front row and Rowntree admitted that the side will pose a challenge, Sky Sports News reports.
He remarked: "They are all technically very proficient. We have got our hands full there because I rate them a lot, individually and collectively."
However, Rowntree stated that while the England squad will remain respectful, it is important that they exhibit the desire to win on home soil at Twickenham.
The players need to show they all want to come away from the match victorious, he added.
England are currently 8/13 favourites with both Betfred (Go to Betfred ») and Skybet (Go to Skybet ») to come away triumphant when the two sides face up on February 6th.
