Hibbard relishing Canadian challenge

Thu 28 May, 11:31 AM


Ospreys hooker Richard Hibbard is relishing the physical challenge from Canada's front row when Wales meet them on Saturday.

Hibbard faced the Canucks last November in a hard-fought 34-13 victory at the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff, and the whole squad on this North American tour has been made well aware of the intensity Canada bring to the Test arena.

"I'm really looking forward to it. I enjoyed it in the autumn, it was a good, tough game and I'm looking forward to putting the jersey on again," said Hibbard.

"I love it, it brings the fire out and I can't wait for that first scrum - it's my favourite part."
