    In my view, a sacrificial lamb to buy time for Pivac ....

    He surely won't get any time past the next six nations. Unless there's a miraculous turn around of course. I don't think he'll get pulled before then unless we're hammered by Georgia. I don't think anyone expects us to beat England anyway, I just hope the scoreline's not humiliating.

    There’s a break clause after the Six Nations.

    I’d start looking now for a new Head Coach

    I should be buzzing for this game but it'll be like torture watching us aimlessly kicking back what little possession we'll get.

    I do. Thought that would be a kick too far for Neil. :)

    I remember Ronnie and Brian calling into my house straight after they’d met up with Neil and his Dad. Unfortunately, Jinx decided to stay at Ponty and not join Neath.

    Anyone else dreading the game today! Eng v Ire should be fun at least.

    I watched Australia v Argentina this morning (15-15)

    With a ‘stronger’ ref, the Argies would have won<ok>

    They look a well coached, well drilled, well disciplined Team - if only we could say the same about Wales!

    The Aussies - particularly the No. 3 - were very ‘niggly’ and tried to wind them up. They kept their cool - the Argies did have 1 guy sin-binned for persistent number of penalties against the team - but Hooper influenced the ref about that ..... he was basically the assistant ref <laugh>

    The Argies are certainly holding their own (but not in the way you're thinking, dirty boy). Amazing considering they hadn't played for so long and then beat the ABs.

    How do you see it going today? I think we'll win but next week could be a bloodbath... and the end of Pivac.

    Today, it will be essential that the forwards achieve parity and provide a solid platform.

    Do that, and I expect us to win by 20pts.

    If we get ‘beaten up’ up front, then it could be another ‘Romania’ ......

    Not being a real fan of the oval stuff but surely Wales second team should be too good for the Georgians..

    I’m not 100% sure our ‘first team’ is good enough at the moment .....

    Wouldn’t be an internal day without the feeling of impending doom. Let’s hope they react at Stradey for the dismal performance last time out. Our strength was always pack an midfield creativity...come on Pivac get our boys working as a unit.
