Welshman living in South East Asia. Rugby loving immigrant who when he Googles his name only gets hits for Gaz Top, so must be bottom.
Steffan thought this was a great idea, he also spent several hours saying splitting the pro v amateur split on the union would cure all ills. I think I'd like the geography teachers back. At least they care. This fitness coach can piss around and then get another job in 2 years.

Yeah I think both can be true. He wouldn't have caught Dobie but it makes it tricky to ask a ref to assess an imaginary footrace. I mean if you are LBB or LRZ a clean break on your own 5m line is probably never being caught but you can't give a pen try based on that.

They did that once when it got snuck. Anyone remember if we won that game? Could be a lucky charm.

Another fun fact is that it wasn't until 1958 they made Christmas Day a public holiday. So I reckon it was post war immigrants that persuaded the country to end its heathen ways. 😉

What a dick. On a pedantic note if he wants to be properly British the traditional Christmas meat is goose. Turkey is an import popularised by American films in the mid 20th century.

I think it's just money making, to replica sell kits. They'll tend to use the change strip a couple of times a season even though they rarely face another team in red. It is funny both teams used their change kit though (they have played Wales red v Japan red & white earlier this year).

I have mixed feelings, I live in SE Asia and ran a kids rugby team. I couldn't praise WR enough, they paid for a UK coach to fly from Singapore and teach us all to level 1 certification, their online help is amazing. Most of the shit parts are not their fault but the rich unions restricting them.

To be fair World Rugby have no tier definitions now or for a long time, it's journalists who make them up. The nations championship nonsense they came up with has Japan and Fiji on equal status.

It's the head contact flow chart, that despite all the other changes I believe remains the same. It immediately makes a shoulder charge more severe than any other tackle and removes mitigation. I agree it hasn't consistently been reffed like that until this series though.

This week. Remember the finances were fine in March, dire in May and okay again in October. They have established the world's first bipolar balance sheet.

The NHS in Wales is devolved, same as Scotland. That's how they both have free prescriptions but you have to pay in England.

You never know, I sat through 6 years of rugby pundits and fans (including myself if I'm honest) saying Josh Navidi wouldn't work at test level. He ended up touring with the Lions.

They are going to whack up high balls all day and to be fair, with the way NZ are struggling in that area, not a bad tactic.

Did the Scarlets account edit this package themselves? They won by 4 points but by the footage Swansea didn't score any. 😂

I'm not sure what noise you are meant to make when the opposition makes a line break. I was at the Australia match last year and people said the crowd was subdued but I don't want to boo our players so when try after try is conceded you just keep quiet really. It wasn't apathy for me at least.

Tonmawr is in the historical Neath borough council and not Port Talbot. This post is inaccurate, irresponsible and I suspect driven by a right wing cabal.
