I understand that Ospreys supporters should direct frustrations over previous mismanagement in Welsh Rugby at the WRU.
But if the reports are true, they should be seething at Y11. Feel sorry for all involved at the moment.

Didn't think my opinion of the WRU could get any lower but here we are.
An absolute disgrace of a governing body who simply have zero respect for, or understanding of, Welsh rugby fans.

Our 'survival' coming at the expense of the Ospreys feels so wrong. That is, if the WRU don't just rebrand us anyway...

I don't think I'll be able to say anything that others haven't, but this is gross and horrible and I honestly don't know where we go from here as a rugby club or nation. It's cultural vandalism of one of Wales' most important community assets.

Blue fucking Monday indeed. Horribly predictable from these absolute charlatans at the WRU. When called upon to make a decision they consistently make the worst one.

Slipping out that announcement about having chosen their preferred bidder for Cardiff while many clubs are locked in a virtual room being talked at about the Annual Report is *extremely* on brand for the WRU, fair play.

"We *let* ProD2 take them ..."
The best way to encourage players to stay in Wales is to pay them a competitive wage. And that needs increased revenue. And no one at the WRU has a coherent plan for how to increase revenue. They will just cut ... from three ... to two ... and then one.

While the focus from WOL was about Kane James at Exeter, Bryn Bradley has started both of Quins European games in this block at 12.
At 6'4 and 16.5 stones he's a fair sized unit.
