Biggar urges Wales to make life uncomfortable for Johnny Sexton
Dan Biggar readily accepts that Wales cannot afford to give Ireland captain Johnny Sexton “a free ride” in Saturday’s Guinness Six Nations clash.
The opposing fly-halves will have key roles to play in expected testing conditions at the Aviva Stadium as Dublin prepares to be buffeted by Storm Ciara.
The losers are likely to be blown off course in terms of Six Nations title ambitions this season and the bookmakers favour a marginal Ireland victory.
Wales have not won a Six Nations game in Dublin since 2012, while Ireland were the last team to beat them on European rugby’s biggest stage when they triumphed 37-27 two years ago.
“He (Sexton) has been almost Ireland’s best player for the last 10 to 12 years,” Biggar said.
“It’s great to play against Johnny, one of the best blokes around that you will meet.
“He knows their game inside out, he will be driving them around the field, and I suppose it is up to us on Saturday to try and make life as uncomfortable for him as possible.
