Mike Pearce, on twitter @MPsportsdragon previews the final warm up match before the boys go into the World Cup tournament.   If you enjoy the article please give Mike a follow on twitter.

So tomorrow at 5pm ,under the closed roof of the Millenium Stadium, the last dress rehearsal starts, by 7pm all eyes will gaze wistfully toward the horizon, and the RugbyWorld  Cup, less than two weeks away.

 

The coaches will all be saying a communal prayer that their teams do not suffer any significant injuries , we know too well that all hopes can end in a second in this cruel game.

Wales will be looking to wipe away the enivatble rustiness of a brutal pre season fitness regime,  although their performance in Dublin last weekend was truely inspiring.

Bigger and Webb at half back will be looking to control the game , against an Italian side put to the sword by Scotland last Saturday, although the azzuri will be a different kettle of fish with Sergio Parisse returning to the side and wearing the captains armband.

So what do Wales fans want to see tomorrow ?

Firstly no injuries, the chance to send the boys in their way with all our hopes dreams and support,  and an opportunity to tighten that unique bond that exists in Wales between the team and the nation, and a few tries would be very welcome.

 

The curtain comes down tomorrow evening , and the biggest show of all is just around the corner.
