Wales coach Graham Henry has named a near-full-strength side to face the Barbarians at Cardiff's Millennium Stadium on Sunday.
Henry had delayed announcing his side after injury doubts over several key players and has been forced to make do without Darren Morris and Scott Quinnell.
That means fellow British Lions Neil Jenkins, Rob Howley, Mark Taylor, Dafydd James, Robin McBryde, David Young, Colin Charvis and Martyn Williams all start in a match Henry believes will be a magnificent occasion.
"This Barbarians side is something special," he said.
"It's world rugby coming to Cardiff and players, coaches and spectators alike can't help but be stirred by the prospect.
"All the boys are looking forward with a degree of excitement to sharing centre stage at the Millennium Stadium with some of the world's greats.
