Relatives agree, playing Bok teams in league matches might toughen up youth generations, but Omicron hit and all 4 regions are poor. Saw Cardiff beat Leinster first time in 11 years, the ghosts of the clubs I caught as a kid said “Cardiff ruin players”

Wales are rudderless. Grip Tandy from Scotland and/or bring Adam Jones from Quins in. Fuckin Pivac off isn’t enough. Options - Dai Young is thick as fuck. Ledesma from Argentina? He turned Australia’s set piece round. With Jones and Jenkins, that’s 4 decent generals who could forge a new group’s generation, Could is guesswork and compared to Ireland Wales were dull to watch the entire game

Concussion legacy is still going to come more and more into focus, think the whole game is on wobbly legs on this front. No Dana White and talent will always be there but folks like Popham aren’t unique

Might be one reason for so many aerial contests now, Gary Owens would be one or two a game, cut to 50/22 rule which is smart lawmaking

Beast of Burden
All the money spent on a stadium with a retractable roof, no big public schools other than Llandovery, all the old clubs absorbed into regions nobody cares about, and most kids in school prefer football.

Good game so far with Wales v Scotland, just as Scotland sub the entire front row

Hogg is overrated and mistake prone, bring J Davies on for leadership addition to Wales, still can’t call a winner

wouldn’t put it past Wales to still win the championship, so many injuries, England and France will be tougher games

such an immense tournament for momentum and windy-lanes of fate

France slam, Hogg errors (again)

England’s experience could/should see them through today. I like Eddie J, brought the best out of Sinckler, Genge, Lawes, Curry, tons of backs and now a nipper like M Smith. The only rugby fool at works wants Jones sacked

Good luck @craner , I’d say it in Welsh but, ya know. Might be a tonking or close, tough read, a fixture which always has the potential for magic
