Some interesting comments.

 

Just watching the womens world cup, wondered what they wore under their shorts and just found out, as one of the English forwards hadd them pulled down in a maul and it appears they wear Black thongs under them. Changed my view on Womens rugby.

 

So what's thong with that ?

 

another legend departs.

Cheers Taff

Team looks good enough to beat Zebre but we've been poor so far in pre-season friendlies you ever know, certainly not a game to be taken lightly.

We have to get our injuries back playing ASAP to bulk up our squad and ramp up the competition for places. We need Dmitri Arhip, Sam Davies, Hanno Dirksen, in particular back ASAP imo.

Any news on Owen Watkins? and what's happened to the Scott Gibbs looky-likey Kieran Williams?

 

Dmitri's right shoulder continues to cause him problems. For the other 2 see my earlier post in the thread.

Big things are expected of Owen.

I'll investigate Kieran.

Great to see Reuben on the bench - I was in school with his father.

 

Biggar off to Saints

Very matter of fact joint statement from Ospreys & WRU

Can't say I am surprised at the move Taff, helps sort out the Ospreys 10 choice

 

Pity they didn't sign Halpenny now - for his kicking.....
