There's always a team behind the team. We've got our off-field guys looking after us. ”

When it comes to talking about beating certain teams, we can be narrow-minded when we need to look at the bigger picture. ”

Welsh rugby has done its dirty washing in public. It's nothing new. We're a tribal bunch. If warring parties want to sway public opinion, they do it in the public arena. ”

Players want to play a lot of rugby. We're walking contradictions at times in that we want to play a lot of rugby, but we don't want to play too much rugby, and we want to be available for all the big games, yet there are times when you have to sacrifice that because of game limits. ”

That's the great thing about this sport: it's always different. ”

I know part of me is going to die when I stop playing rugby. ”

Apparently, I'm the angriest man. I don't know. It's just an interpretation. If it was someone else, they might be called focused or competitive. I'm not that angry or grumpy, but if you want to say I'm angry because I'm focused or competitive, then that's okay. ”

Without being too profound, I never dreamt of getting 100 caps for Wales. ”

I am paid to play, and the coaches are paid to plan, and that is what they have to do. ”

I am proud of being a bad loser. Bad losers are winners. That is the way it should be. ”
