Re: Aussie woman punched at the Principality

Serious question as I have never really noticed it before, but is there a fan issue in Welsh rugby? This is unpleasant, but I have seen unsavoury instances in different stadia across the rugby world, including Murrayfield. They were isolated and if this is also then fine, especially as other Welsh ...

Certainly at lineout time, Retallick made Itoje his plaything. His 'Around the Way Girl. His private dancer. That wasn't a lineout contest, that was televised hate-sex. Itoje's farts will be smelling like Brodie's he-cock for weeks. That's an odd way of saying NZ illegally closed the gap at the lin...
