Even if they win it, Wales will have to wait to lift the Six Nations trophy because the silverware will be elsewhere

Someone hasn't thought things through

Sam Warburton will cut a very irritated figure if Wales win the Six Nations this weekend and are left twiddling their thumbs.

The organisers of the tournament only have two versions of the trophy to their name and are met with the unprecedented problem of three teams in the running for the title.

Ireland, England and Wales can all claim the Six Nations championship on Saturday but the latter team will have to wait to get their hands on any physical proof of their success because the trophies will be at Twickenham and Murrayfield.

According to The Daily Mail, the Wales camp will aim for a trophy presentation on either Sunday or Monday in Cardiff

Might we suggest a nice HD photograph of the trophy for the Welsh lads to lift on the day?
