Richard, a special guest at the game on Saturday is excited about spending the day meeting fans and watching Wales take on the All Blacks; “I’m really excited about Saturday’s match” stated Richard.  “It will be great to chat to everyone and sign books in the shop, which always has such a buzz on match days.  I am amped about the game, I know it’s been a challenging week for the boys but in context, there’s still a lot to build on with a big year ahead.  It will be interesting to see what performance the teams come out with as they look to put a marker down ahead of next year’s world cup.  It’s always pretty special when we take on the Blacks and I know the boys will deliver a top class performance.”

Kick off on Saturday is at 5.30pm and Richard will be in the WRU Shop from 12noon until 2.30pm.
