Re: The Official Welsh Rugby Thread

Just looking at the squad we had when we won the league to now. Farkingly depressing. 2016/7 Back 3: Johnny McNicholl, Liam Williams, Steff Evs (when was league's top try scorer) and Van der Merwe Centres: Scott Williams, Jonathan Davies, Hadley Parkes - Regan King left at end of prior season FH/SH...

Re: The Official Welsh Rugby Thread

I don’t think it’s fair to paint two games as a pattern to live by, for those two games in a squad and fund decimated season, I raise you Cardiff losing by 4 points thanks to one try awarded through Tom Dunns ass by an X-ray vision ref, or ospreys beating the prem winners away last year, or Cardiff ...

Re: The Official Welsh Rugby Thread

the regions have a 6 year deal in place, and after that there'd be an unwinnable case between whoever is to shut(cease funding) not to mention anyone other than the dregs requires the £10m reimbursement.
However a region could become insolvent or be bought out and then closed

I think it was a rash decision when Cardiff signed him as attack coach the Turks thought they were missing out and as ever in welsh rugby nepotism took over and did the rest.

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.

Always liked Scott myself, ran a wonderful out to in arc, and thought it was a shame the jaw had such a grip on the jersey, talk of impact players, he came off the bench to win us games we had no right before the dreaded England 2015 game.
