Jenkins defends selction policy

Wales coach Gareth Jenkins has urged his side to give him a World Cup selection headache by performing as he believes they can to claim a historic victory at Telstra Stadium, Sydney on Saturday.

Jenkins' confidence belies the flak he and his squad have received from the Australian media, who have accused the tour party's selection of disrespecting the Wallabies because 17 leading players were left at home to rest, recuperate and be ready to rumble at the autumn tournament.
