It’s not the number of games it’s who they’re against is the problem for me

If Wales play both of them twice in what will be highly competitive games how do you try new things without giving away any game plans/moves or as has been pointed out the chances of picking up injuries is high.

The WRU seem to be intent on sucking as much financial juice out of this and the autumn internationals as they can to cover financial shortcomings in other areas like funding junior clubs and grass roots development whilst paying the top players a competitive wage
You could get injuries against any opposition. In 2015 both Rhys Webb and Halfpenny were injured against Italy, having played previously against Ireland. The number of games pre World Cup does increase the chances of injuries but they could equally happen in training, given the intensity of some of the seasons.
