The BBC have been forced into apologising for making a mistake on the listed teamsheet for Wales on their sports site. The BBC listed English born Welsh lock Jake Ball, owner of one of the best beards in Welsh rugby, as "Jake Ballsack" in an embarrassing gaff. Welsh centre Jamie Roberts was the one to bring this to everyone's attention tweeting:
Haha spot the error @BBCSport @BBCWalesSport ...I'll give you a clue - he plays second row for us!! ???? pic.twitter.com/qSQSztDqcz

The BBC have moved to apologise for any offence they may have caused saying:
We are investigating how this error occurred and the piece was amended as soon as it was spotted. We apologise for any offence that may have been caused.
Ball had this response.
Cheers @BBCSport think the name BALLSACK is going to haunt me for the rest of my days lol
