On the BBC, I came across this interesting article;

George North insists Wales are ready to build on Grand Slam success rather than lose the momentum as happened after the 2005 and 2008 successes. The 20-year-old wing wants to keep the winning streak going on June’s three-Test tour of Australia. Wales face the Barbarians at Cardiff’s Millennium Stadium on 2 June before heading to the southern hemisphere. “I think we have been guilty in the past of just slowing down after a Grand Slam,” said the Scarlets flier. “But I think we have got the boys here now who are really keen to just push on and really achieve more. “It seems with the quality we have, we can achieve more and cause more upsets.
But! In a side bar, we have this:
WALES TOUR OF AUSTRALIA
Saturday 9 June: Australia v Wales (Suncorp Stadium, Brisbane; 1100 BST)
Tuesday 12 June: Brumbies v Wales (Canberra Stadium, Canberra; 1030 BST)
Saturday 16 June: Australia v Wales (Etihad Stadium, Melbourne; 1100 BST)
Saturday 23 June: Australia v Wales (Aussie Stadium, Sydney; 0600 BST)
Are we to be blessed as the only Aussie Club side to play the Grand Slam Champions of 2012?
