England couldn't even get 50 against us, what a crap team. #EngvWal #6nations

I remember standing on the terrace of the old national stadium on a cold wet Tuesday night watching us lose to Canada. I think we've sunk to 'worse than the 90s' levels. #EngvWal #6nations

I might have just missed it then. Probably during a moment where I was finding anything to do rather than watch the screen.

On the plus point we've not given ITV the opportunity to show any in-game adverts. #EngvWal #6Nations

There's being not as good as the opposition and there's making mistakes a school team would get pilloried for. Dreadful. #EngvWal #6nations

I was gonna say at this rate I'm gonna celebrate getting a line out right, but I think that's probably too optimistic. #EngvWal #6nations

I'd actually be happy if we manage to get a line out right today. #EngvWal #6nations

I'm not talking about regional success. I'm talking about the national teams success, based on having 2 teams. Have you not read anything I've written?

God I hate ITV coverage. Even the way the scores are presented in the corner annoys me. Looks the header on a shit newspaper like the Sun. #6nations #EngvWal

My point still stands, if you want to correct me and point out any Scottish success since going to 2 regions feel free. Wales have had a decent run, now we're shit for a bit. A knee jerk reaction to scrap a region is stupid. 4 regions have served us well up until recently.

07.02.2026 16:38 β€” πŸ‘ 0    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 1    πŸ“Œ 0

Yeah, but it's never ever done anything for the national side. Yeah, Wales are shit at the moment but getting rid of the region that's won the league 4 times (two more than Glasgow I believe) is not gonna help the national team in the longterm.

07.02.2026 16:26 β€” πŸ‘ 0    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 1    πŸ“Œ 0

Ospreys beat Glasgow in Glasgow last year. My point being, despite Glasgow's success it's not doing anything for the national side. And getting rid of the most successful Welsh region and reducing the pathways for young players won't help Wales in anyway.

Wonder if the WRU have noticed how well 2 regional teams is working out for Scotland? Congrats Italy, I think they deserved that. Great defence at the end. #6nations #ItavSco

France really getting the bounce of the ball. Cheeky, and great to watch. Liquid rugby. #FravIre

France looking very good at the moment. Ireland struggling to hold them back. #FravIre

As if ITVs rugby coverage wasn't bad enough, they can fuck right off putting adverts during the game. Absolutely disgraceful. #FravIre #rugby

Gonna be spending the evening watching the Royal Rumble and the Ospreys v Dragons. Whose gonna be eliminated? And that's just the rugby. Hopefully some outside interference will save the Ospreys and the WRU will take a chair shot to the face. #rugby #wwe #royalrumble #OspvDra

Tough game against unbeaten in 8 Canterbury. Hopefully Havant can build on our 4 game win streak. Cracking afternoon for it. #rugby #natleague2 #havant #HavvCan

Excellent win for Havant against a very good Westcombe Park side in National league 2. Sky not so blue at the end of the game, in fact it was cold horizontal rain.

That is a disappointing draw. Should won that one. #OspvLio

Got the Ospreys game on my laptop, Gloucester v Bath on the TV, and what a humdinger that is. But what on earth is going on in Munster?

I don't know how you managed it, but you've managed to give me a slim bit of optimism and hope after that. I'm under no illusions it will most likely be crushed though.

In my 46 years on earth I've seen the WRU make some pretty short sighted stupid decisions. But this takes the cake. Once the Ospreys go I'm done with Welsh rugby. The WRU can get fucked. The national team can get fucked as well. Even though I knew it was coming I'm so angry.

Excellent try scored by Pollock. That said, I hope someone flattens the smug prick. #BorvNor

I don't mind Munster, but was glad to see them lose just to shut up the horrendously one sided Premier Sports pundits. Didn't see the Ospreys game, but looks like we didn't turn up for the first 40 and gave away a load of pens. Still, I'll take a losing bonus point. It's not the end of the world.
