Six Nations 2024: Wales fans would recall George North and Nick Tompkins to face Italy

George North has 120 Wales caps having made his debut in 2010
Venue: Principality Stadium, Cardiff Date: Saturday, 16 March Kick-off: 14:15 GMT
Coverage: Watch live on BBC One, BBC iPlayer and online from 13:45 GMT; listen on BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra, BBC Radio Wales & Radio Cymru; text commentary and highlights on BBC Sport website and app.

BBC Sport website voters would recall centres George North and Nick Tompkins for Saturday’s Wooden Spoon decider against Italy in Cardiff.

The experienced pair were surprisingly left out of last weekend’s Six Nations defeat to France, replaced by Joe Roberts and Owen Watkin.

Fans who took part in our online poll would choose Mason Grady ahead of Cardiff team-mate Josh Adams on the wing.

And you would start tight-head prop Dillon Lewis in place of Keiron Assiratti.

Dafydd Jenkins was a more popular choice than Adam Beard at lock, but a majority also voted for skipper Jenkins to remain in the open-side flanker role he was switched to for last weekend’s game. Beard, therefore, takes up the other place in the fans’ second row alongside Will Rowlands.

Overall Jenkins was in 91% of teams submitted, with scrum-half Tomos Williams (91%), wing Rio Dyer (96%) and number eight Aaron Wainwright (97%) all overwhelming choices.

Tommy Reffell (82%) was your clear open-side choice, though he is a major injury doubt. As alternatives Alex Mann and Taine Basham each only attracted 7% of the vote.

North (69%) polled significantly more than Roberts (22%) at outside centre despite the 23-year-old scoring on his Six Nation’s debut last weekend.

The decision at inside centre was far closer with Tompkins polling 51% and Watkin 49%.
