Legendary fly-half Dan Biggar paid a visit to Wales’ training camp in Vale Resort in the aftermath of their narrow defeat to Scotland.
Biggar was one of the leaders in Warren Gatland’s group before retiring last year and remains on hand to offer the young squad advice as they prepare to take on England according to WalesOnline.
Ioan Lloyd or Cai Evans could step in to fill Biggar’s former role at Twickenham, with Sam Costelow ruled out after failing an HIA during th Scotland clash.
Writing in his Daily Mail column after the match, Biggar added: “Those last 35 minutes will completely change the mood. When Wales have their team meeting [on Monday], the conversation will be about how they can pick up that second-half performance and take it to Twickenham.
“I thought England were OK against Italy but they certainly don’t look unbeatable. Momentum is a big thing in rugby and the energy was all with Wales by the end of the match in Cardiff.”

“Games within games” – Joe Marler ranks rugby’s three biggest sh**houses
Whether he’s grabbing Alun Wyn Jones by the family jewels or redoing his shoelace, Joe Marler has established himself as the master of mind games down the years.
“I love games within games,” revealed Marler to The Times when discussing the Springboks tactics during the summer series against the Lions.
He added: “Very few have mastered this art. I like to think I’m one of them.”
When asked to name the three biggest shithouses he’d come across in his career in a recent Q&A, the results were unsurprising if we’re being honest.
#1. Dan Biggar
Marler became close friend with Biggar during the 2017 Lions tour, and famously gave the Welshman a b**lock naked cuddle following a World Cup warm-up game between England and Wales.
However, Biggar is the epitome of players you hate until they are on your team. The way the fly-half continues to moan to referees vociferously has seemingly only got worse throughout his career.
It got so bad that popular online personality and diehard Scotland fan Glove39 made a video called ‘birdman’ mocking the way in which he always raises his arms in frustration to officials. It’s no shock Marler namechecked him!
