Hansen apologises to Welsh Supporters

STEVE HANSEN last night apologised to Wales’ suffering supporters as the fall-out continued from an abject RBS 6 Nations Championship display against Italy in Rome.

Hansen also claimed that some players had "undervalued the jersey" and gave a clear indication there will be changes in his starting line-up for Saturday's daunting Millennium Stadium appointment with England.

The Wales coach wouldn't be drawn though, on intense speculation that skipper Colin Charvis could be axed from leadership duties. Cardiff flanker Martyn Williams is a clear favourite to take over.
