GETHIN Jenkins is prepared to scrummage himself to a standstill again as Wales look to end a run of poor results with another famous victory over France.

In 2005, Jenkins famously turned in one of his most heroic Test performances as Wales held on for a dramatic victory which propelled them towards a first Grand Slam in 27 years.

Wales had raced into the lead after surviving a first-half hammering but needed to mount a late defensive stand on their own line to secure the victory.

Jenkins anchored a series of scrums in the less familiar role of tight-head prop, and Wales had the seminal victory of their 2005 campaign.
