Roberts and Watkin named as Wales’ centre partnership for France match
England and Scotland set to battle at Twickenham today for Calcutta Cup
WALES will field a new centre partnership of Joe Roberts and Owen Watkin in Sunday’s Six Nations clash against France.
They take over from established midfield pairing George North and Nick Tompkins, who have 155 caps between them, at the Millennium Stadium.
It will be Llanelli centre Roberts’ first Six Nations start after making his Test debut against England last summer in a World Cup warm-up match.
