Jamie Robinson, Scott Morgan and Chris Czekaj are three of the suprise names in Gareth Jenkins' Wales squad.

Back-row forward, Scott Morgan, is the only uncapped player in Jenkins' squad, but has familiar faces in the 8 other Cardiff Blues players called up.

Jamie Robinson gets a shock call up following injuries, while Chris Czekaj gets a reward for his fine form.

They are joined by Tom Shanklin, Mike Phillips, Gethin Jenkins, Rhys Thomas, Rob Sidoli and Martyn Williams.

There are also some tranfer targets in Ceri Sweeney, Chris Horseman and Brent Cockbain plus future Blue gareth Thomas in the 6 Nations sqaud.

Unfortunately there was no room for Nick Robinson, Mark Lewis or deiniol Jones who have been pushing hard, while injuries rules out Bradley Davies, John Yapp, Rhys Williams and Robin Sowden-Taylor.
