The AB's have had some problems with playing people out of position although with 15 players on the field I guess you want to play as many of the best players as you can and that sometimes means shifting them out of their best position.

Shanks has many welsh caps on the wing, roberts a few (and started as a full back), halfpenny has been playing fullback for the blues, Hook has been playing inside center for the ospreys and has a bunch of caps there. In all cases I would be confident of them doing a job when called upon, and well worth switching things up when the play calls for it. Specifically which player filling in where in that Welsh team are you most nervous about? For me its Hook - and by that I mean him starting at 15 rather than where he fills in!
