5 Stars simply because it's another Wales GRAND SLAM.
Another Grand Slam for Wales and disappointingly we get slightly fewer and fewer highlights on every occasion. However, there were one or two forgettable games in this 6N and aside from the rugby purists who might want to watch them in full, I think most fans would be happy with the highlights. That said the home wins against England and Ireland were epic. We kept Ireland to one try in extra time which is no mean feat when you consider that they had recently beaten NZ and were number 2 in the world.The comeback against France it worth another look as France appeared to be cruising to victory and then confounded expectation when they spectacularly capitulated with little or no pressure from Wales.All in all a decent snapshot of Wales journey to the Grand Slam championship. Personally, I would have preferred a box set with all five matches in full, however, some might argue that the Italy, Scotland and possibly France games are only worthy of highlights which I would agree. At the very least a box set with the England and Ireland games in full should have been minimum offering and may well be planned for a future release.You may ask why I have given it 5 stars, considering I have been a little critical of this offering. Well, I am an unashamedly proud Welshman and another Wales Grand Slam is always worthy of 5 stars in my book.CYMRU AM BYTH.

Reliving The Glorious Gatland Finale
Few could have predicted Wales' phenomenal achievement in Gatland's last Six Nations in charge, or the rollercoaster drama after being down 16-0 at half time in the Paris rain, or indeed the crucial last twelve minutes against England at Cardiff to effectively turn the match around and slay St. George! It is all captured wonderfully on this DVD of the highlights from the five matches we played and culminating in the final glorious victory, once more in the rain, over the best ever Irish team to win an historic Twelfth Grand Slam! I especially liked the way we get to hear the thoughts of some of the of the key players (and coaches) in each game including our mighty captain Alun Wyn and the incomparable Gats! A must have DVD for all proud Welsh patriots!
