Wales forward Jamie Roberts heaps praise on the team's scrum following their win over Italy at the weekend.

Jamie Roberts has praised Wales's scrum following their 26-9 victory over Italy in Rome at the weekend.

The victory over the Azzurri kept Wales in with a chance of the Six Nations title, with Roberts branding their scrum "outstanding".

"Our scrum was outstanding. Adam Jones was magnificent, as were Gethin Jenkins and 'Hibbs' (hooker Richard Hibbard). I take my hat off to the forwards - they worked so hard," he told reporters following the match.

"Tight games are often decided by things like a bounce of the ball, but we got our just reward."

England currently top the Six Nations table.
