wow .. that’s well managed. Tremendous longevity in the modern game and he’s a bit chicken legged as well ( not that I can talk 😉) but he’s still absorbed all those targeted hits! 👍

It's incredible how long these people can stay at the top ...I suppose having your day to day exposure to regional rugby must have a major impact on your longevity

Alan Wyn Jones indicated after Saturdays game that he would be unavailable for training on Mondays as it's the day he picks his pension up from the post office

What did wyn have ?? 18st of uslesness in Beard and 15 1/2st tipuric. 51st on the Welsh side compared to over 60st on the french. Nobody would have held their own under those circumstances. Beard offers nothing apart from being 6"8.Parhau ati Wyn, parhau.
This! 👏👏👏

Well the meeting next week is about the change at the top ..nothing else ..it's a yes or no scenario..no further questions .....
It has been said there is a plan B , not sure what the plans are ...but we have been told the principality and admiral will walk away if it's no ...26 march is going to be the biggest day ever in Welsh rugby

The u20 resullts are even more devastating than the seniors...As has been said many many times the welsh prem needs serious improvement, reducing to 10 sides, thus increasing the funding too...Less is more ..Surely when regional players dont get games on a weekend they shoud be drafted to a club to keep match fit....The whole pro game needs more funding (less money spent on payers in lower leagues too) .....Its surprising to see the likes of Neath, pooler and cross keys outside the top division...We also miss Wales A too that was a great tool in developing future stars....Developing more welsh coaches is a must too. ....roll on the EGM

I agree with that point, but we should still be able to beat Scotland and Italy.

Most of that french u20's are regulars in the Pro14. Thyre not affraid to.throw youngsters in early. And it pays off. Our players either sit in the stand and cheer the region on or play in the prem, which is not of a higher enough standard. Wake up time for the WRU
The only true wisdom is in knowing you know nothing.

Let's hope the women give us something to be proud of in their 6N campaign!

Italy finishing above England, Wales and Scotland in the U20's table augers well for them.

Wales, not so much, rock bottom.
