Already back in Swansea after the second semi final. Thoroughly enjoyable trip, but I am not cut out for that weather 🥵. Was hoping Toulon would win, but Bordeaux far too good 🫡

Decent first semi final considering the extreme heat. Toulouse worthy winners, though Bayonne gave it a good go. Looking forward to Bordeaux v Toulon tonight 🏉

Pretty dire game but an enjoyable couple of days spent in Twickenham and Richmond for the Prem Final.
Not quite done with the 24/25 season yet, looking forward to the last couple of games this weekend.

Great day out yesterday. An infinitely better experience than Judgement Day has ever been.

People were friendly. Their first question is “where are you from?” and their immediate follow up is “which football team do you support?”. Unsurprisingly, they’re all football mad. Went to games at Racing Club and River Plate, the fans were as incredible as advertised.

Went to the River Plate game tonight and I’ll never experience a better atmosphere for as long as I live. Also, Franco Mastantuono is going to be a superstar, 17 years old and he was phenomenal.

Boots on the ground at Lyon v Toulon for me today 🏉. The Stade de Gerland, home of some magnificent floodlights and also home to many a Juninho Pernambucano wonder goal back in the day ⚽️

Looking forward to USA-Canada tonight 🏒
Already seen it described in the NY Post as the ‘rematch of the century’. I couldn’t possibly say who I want to win…..

Wales must be on the up because Jesse Kriel was a bit sore after playing against them in the Autumn 🥴

Enjoyable night in Cardiff watching the Devils win a European trophy after beating Grenoble. They’ve come a long way since the days of the big blue tent!

A shame to see Le Coq Sportif go bankrupt. They made my favourite Scarlets and Swans shirts back in the day. Classics.

Xmas has come early for me. As a lover of all things 90s, couldn’t resist these new Super Rugby official 90s re-released jerseys. Picked up the Blues and Crusaders ones too. Glorious heavyweight cotton, as all rugby jerseys should be.
