"Personally, I'll be looking for some passion from the players and a strong desire to play for Wales Under 20," he said. "I want them to be as committed as possible in this game which will set the stall for the international season ahead.

"We have a blank canvass to a certain extent because although all the players have done a lot of training with their clubs and academies, this is where all the hard work starts. They have done the gym work and played for their clubs but this is a step-up and we want to see that in this game.

"Everyone playing tomorrow has got a chance of making it into the Six Nations squad, and although some players have had good seasons to date, reputations won't be a guaranteed ticket for selection."

Webster remembers his own break-through into international rugby at a similar age and has laid down the gauntlet for today's youngsters to take a leaf our of his book.

"The only trial match I played in was a Welsh Youth trial at Whitland in the winter of 1984/85, along with the likes of Tony Clement and Dai Young," he said. "I was a complete unknown in that match but played my heart out and went from playing for the 'Whites' in that game to captaining the 'Reds' in the following trial and earning a Welsh Youth cap in my first year of youth rugby. There are players in a similar situation playing at Cross Keys and the chance is there for them to shine."
