Gatland set to make changes for Wales

Wales fly-half Stephen Jones expects coach Warren Gatland to make changes for next Saturday's RBS 6 Nations finale against Italy.
Gatland, left angry and hurt by his team's tame 27-12 loss to Ireland in Dublin three days ago, could recall fit-again British and Irish Lions trio Ryan Jones, Mike Phillips and Gethin Jenkins.
And Scarlets number 10 Jones will find himself under pressure if Gatland ponders switching James Hook from centre or handing young Ospreys playmaker Dan Biggar a start in the team due to be announced later today.
'I am sure there will be changes made,' said Jones, who kicked all of Wales' points at Croke Park.
'We didn't play to our potential - the performance against Ireland wasn't good enough. We were below-par in certain areas.
'The coaches are hugely disappointed, as are the players. It is about us putting some pride back in the jersey.'
