In the glory years of the 1970s Wales won three grand slams in eight seasons. But rarely since then had the men in red started a Six Nations campaign armed with expectation rather than hope. 2012 was different. The previous year they had come within a kick of reaching the World Cup final losing by a point to France despite playing for the last hour with 14 men after their captain Sam Warburton had been sent off for a dangerous tackle. The question when they returned home was how they would cope with the heartache. The answer came in their first match in the 2012 Six Nations Championship. In Dublin against Ireland the team they had knocked out in the World Cup quarter-final revenge was on the menu. Wales went there without five of their leading forwards & lost Warburton to injury at half-time. They were trailing by six points with five minutes to go & had a player in the sin-bin. The old Wales would have folded but as in Life on Mars it was back to the spirit of the 1970s. This Wales team came back fighting to win not only the game but to sweep the board in the whole tournament bringing home a Welsh grand slam for the third time in eight years & establishing a strong & exciting team for the future. ...
