Rumour has it that Orders has to wear man nappies when in Swansea because he can’t contain himself.
He has also memorised the home address of every Ospreys player since regional Rugby started.

Hes at it again this week pushing for Rhys Webbs inclusion in tne squad.
I'd hate to see the mess on his Rhys Webb bedroom poster... Now and again he does write up scarlet players, but normally when they are on the brink of moving. His obsession with Jac Morgan is now up there with Webb and Tipuric. A strange fella

Well that would certainly have avoided the nonsense situations which we had with Francis, Webb, Young & Priestland.

I don't agree with the 60 cap rule.....
I believe in the play for Wales, play in Wales! |

On your points supporting the 60 cap rule I would comment as follows. Financially I guess the only countries who could now outbid Welsh clubs are France & Japan. English clubs are now restricted. Why would an International player jeopardise his chances of playing for his country by becoming a squad filler? I know its sometimes more difficult to get out of the Welsh squad than in it but unless you are playing regularly you are going to have problems.

The 60 cap rule I do in principle agree with it, be it for player welfare [preventing them being overplayed etc. But can see the counter argument of other country based players. Yes the regions suffer with access to players and it needs sorting with the URC fixtures not clashing etc.
BUT Do people actually think that if we allowed players to ply their trade to the highest bidder we would have any of the welsh internationals playing in wales!!!? The reality is they would be gone within a season not necessarily first choice but they would be gone as squad fillers if nothing else. This reason alone I think is why the rule should stay. |

I appreciate that Pivac would not wish to change the rules but someone with some foresight needs to look at the bigger picture for the long term benefit of Welsh rugby & if that means sacrificing Pivac's access to players and putting him on the same footing as Gregor Townsend & Eddie Jones so be it. Your point about not being able to compare England & Wales I do not agree with. Eddie & Pivac start off with roughly the same size squads 35-38. Eddie has to let all but 25/26 return to their clubs for training on the Wednesday before the test weekend. Pivac has around 30-32 players available that week made up of English based players in the 23 and Welsh based players. Very few currently are released back to their clubs. If access % was so important then Pivac has a slight advantage over Eddie. As is customary with Pivac his management of his squad is carried out far too much in the media. Having access to players for only 25% of the training period is constantly used as a reason not to pick certain players but doesn't enter the equation with others - its a complete nonsense. Gatland may well have thought along similar lines but he wasn't foolish enough to blab it about in public.
