THE Welsh Rugby Union has announced the national anthem will be sung a cappella in all three home fixtures in this year’s Six Nations.

- By BEN JAMES

It follows the change to sing Hen Wlad Fy Nhadau without the backing of the band in last year's defeat to New Zealand in November. The a cappella rendition produced a spine-tingling version of the anthem in the Principality Stadium as a result.

Wales take on France, Scotland and Italy in Cardiff in this year’s tournament.
