At this point in his career, Etzebeth would have been better off just taking the maximum ban versus the legacy-destroying claim that he was shit-scared of a knackered 15-stone 23-year-old from Aberdare.

Schools feel underfunded / under-resourced, families feel ignored, & specialist staff feel under-capacity.
Exactly this.
Itβs in the WRUβs own interest to have the βweakestβ investor take over Cardiff. The last thing theyβd want is an ambitious & competent, driven ownership - one that could actually challenge WRU βplansββ¦
Of course if they actually wanted the best deal for Cardiff & not the best deal for the WRU, then a major investor in Welsh rugby at Cardiff would be a major headache for the WRU. Four teams, is the last thing they want. Major investor? Ych a fi.

Dire for Cardiff too.
Awful, awful news.

It was great to see Dave Reddin with a smile on his face, celebrating the pay rise with a nice day out in Cardiff.
Pob lwc a llongyfarchiadau, Dave!
Terrific results for Scarlets and Cardiff, seriously brave showing from the Ospreys and the Dragons absolutely robbed.
Perhaps the WRU are the ones who should be cut?

To be that dominant as a side, be under little to no pressure & STILL allow yourself to deliberately gouge is so weak, itβs pathetic. Just laugh in our face, point to the scoreboard, sledge the players as much as you wish, but thatβs never acceptable.
Should be a very long ban. Utterly deliberate.

Smug grinning as the team youβre supposedly leading is being humiliated is not a great look.

This is now Wales' biggest ever defeat in Cardiff. The shot of Dave Reddin smiling as it happened is fucking poetry.
