Today I learned that the barrier to attending rugby matches in Cape Town for people living in Wales is idiocy, not time and money
Does anyone have recommendations on how I could alleviate my idiocy to the point where I'm brainy enough to get five flights a year to watch away games, please?

That's because their idiots who can fill in an online form but can't travel to a game of rugby and can't see that the English league is dieing but URC is the only game in town 🤷

Preseason results are meaningless but also I see no reason why we won't now complete the treble over Leinster following our inevitable promotion into The Champions Cup knockout stages

I propose that the WRU do not know what their ultimate goal is, and have no understanding of the definite article

I get AI generated work submitted from lazy students several times a term.
The most memorable so far was a poster on new wastewater treatment research that pivoted to "expected outcomes of hip surgery" halfway through.

It's actually embarrasing how I, as a layman fan, can see at least four basic factual errors in this figure.
There are 30 professional clubs in France!!
And South Africa have the (professional) domestic Currie Cup with 14 teams plus the FOUR in the URC!
This is basic, basic stuff from the WRU.

In Hymns and Arias, 1971, Max Boyce proclaims that a year of saving 12p a week buys you a trip to Twickenham for an international. In today's money that's £112.84, and would even get you into the ground.
