Totally agree Roy......she asked questions 


In 1972, Roy Bergiers scored that try and said "that was for you lofty"

Complimented her on her interviewing skills when our paths crossed in Bayonne recently. The S4C TV team were staying in our hotel.

Agree Roy.She is head and shoulders  better than Catrin Helledd. 
Lauren grew up a stones throw  from stadey,went to Ysgol y stradey.
She has a clear natural understanding  of rugby, not somthing  you have learnt  to become a journalist,  and I say that in no disrespectful  way about Catrin, who is very professional,  but wooden.
Lauren doesn't pull her punches  when it comes to questions,  but as Roy says also allowed  the interviewee  to answer  without interruption.
She is developing  in to a very  good presenter and journalist.

Lauren has been superb with her questions, explanations and opinions throughout this affair - underestimate her at your peril! I suspect it was she who enabled Josh Turnbull to ask his killer question to Malcolm Wall on ScrumV on Sunday - it would have been a great question from her, but coming from a current pro, a former Wales international and the Cardiff club captain, it was dynamite. Shocked

She also stepped in at the last minute to cover for Gareth Rhys Owen in co-hosting the BBC Rugby Union Daily podcast, recorded straight after ScrumV on Sunday - recommend listening to it all, but particularly the first ~25 minutes which was a great explainer of the sorry Welsh Rugby tale for all rugby followers, including those in Wales.

Lauren is very good. She and Catrin are good role models for women in rugby.

Please ignore her voice, though Iā€™m not sure why it is a problem. She is very good.

Is this a subtle appealing for crowdfunding on a lip-reading course?

I love her and want her to be my wife.

Being serious she has been excellent throughout this whole issue, you can see she has a clear love of the game and enjoys her job.
