Unbeaten Wales, with four wins from four in the tournament, can clinch their second Grand Slam in four years if they beat France in Cardiff next Saturday.

The 26-year-old flyer — who would not have played had Julien Malzieu not been injured — notched up his sixth try in the last three Tests against the Irish.
