Re: The Official Welsh Rugby Thread

Daf and Christ came up short against a more physical pack again. Losing to Toulouse wouldn't be too bad in isolation. But shipping 64 points while being manhandled throughout by such test luminaries as Rory Arnold and the French second choice #8 is poor. Devoto again preferred to Hawkins, unless he...

People (well, mostly Arsenal fans) have lost their minds over this. There’s still only 2 points covering the top 3. You’d think they lost 10 points yesterday the way they’ve seemingly given up. If you believe it’s over, explain how? Spot on. Merson stating both Liverpool and Arsenal are out of the ...

Just to put NFL players’ athleticism into context, LRZ’s pro day results would put him 16th fastest in this year’s rookie class at the combine for the 40yard dash, and his vertical jump would be dead last. That’s just for WRs. And he’s probably the most explosive and certainly the fastest player ru...
