Wales Team for Italy Finale

Head coach Steve Tandy has named the Wales team to play Italy on ‘Super Saturday’ in the fifth and final round of the 2026 Guinness Six Nations on 14 March (kick-off 4.40pm, live on BBC1 and S4C).

There are no changes to the starting XV for our final home match at Principality Stadium.

Blair Murray is named among the replacements for the second time this Championship.

Tandy said: “Having an unchanged team, I think it reflects the cohesion and the consistency in the group and the consistency of performance out in Ireland.

“This week we need to go up another level. We’ve had some really good performances. I think there were parts against France, then we built up into the Scotland game where I thought we were very good. Against Ireland we stepped up to the plate physically. Now it’s putting it all together and creating our best performance this weekend.”

On being back at home for our final match of the Championship Tandy added: “For the team and myself, going back to Principality Stadium is amazing. The boys did really well creating their own energy against Ireland, but there’s nothing better [than being at home]. The boys reference in meetings what the Scotland game meant to them and the French game, the New Zealand game – the fans have been incredible and I think they’re really behind the team and the team are really putting in performances to represent our nation.”
