It’s another early start here at Wales’ headquarters in the Vale of Glamorgan as Steve Tandy names his team to face Ireland.<\/p>\n

We’re back to the Six Nations after the one-week break and do we note a hint of optimism in the air?<\/p>\n

On the back of a vastly improved performance by Wales against Scotland, we saw Cardiff and Ospreys both claim wins over Irish opposition, Dragons drew and Scarlets came within a score of beating Edinburgh in Scotland.<\/p>\n

Now Tandy has the job of selecting his team to face an Ireland side who have hauled themselves back into the title race with that thumping win over England.<\/p>\n

Tandy is due to announce his team at 09:00 GMT and we will then get the chance to question his selections at a press conference at 10:30 GMT, which will be streamed live here.<\/p>\n

But before that, let’s have a look at some of the big calls that need to be made.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
