Re: The Official Welsh Rugby Thread

It’s the Turks fault and that 2016 league win seems a long time ago now given we still reap the effects. However, wru vanity projects, namely paying off the stadium, the zip line, the hotel have cost and will continue to cost millions, all for alternate revenue streams, they don’t understand that sh...

Re: The Official Welsh Rugby Thread

As I sat down this eve to watch a low budget horror(Dregs vs Bulls), i found myself shocked to hear a certain stat. Those who have started each game for the dregs, have managed to muster 4 tries this season. Not in a game, not this year, this season. They've played 12 games.
