6 Nations 2026

And I hate the concept of going through the phases. Welsh rugby used to be better than that. Had the flair of the French. Those were the days.

I think that’s the very least of our problems.

Disagree - it’s when the rot started.

Easy to be critical when things aren’t going well but the difference in skill level, athleticism, physicality and game awareness is off the scale these last two weeks.

It's easy to be critical when rugby in Wales has been underfunded for years by the cash rich WRU and are about to cull the most successful region by a country mile. Never mind though, a couple of Coldplay concerts next year will get the money rolling in for the world's biggest pub venue.

Another match full of self inflicted errors

Welsh egg is scrambled!

True, but it was a plucky performance at the same time, better than the sh*tshow against England.

Come on, they were playing the best team in the world. Of course they were going to get hammered, but they put up a better fight than the last match.

We will ship 50pts against Ireland, Scotland and Italy too, hopefully we will score a try or two between the three games. The game is broken in Wales, beyond repair through incompetence at the very top.

Lowest ever 6n crowd in Cardiff in the end.

Jock game selling better (lots of Jock), Italy game tanking.

 

[Malaga]

50k unsold for Italy

Despite the score there were some positives, scrum and line-out decent, and no yellow cards, that's something right

They were a bit better but France the best team in the world?
A few South Africans have just said "hold my beer".

Another embarrassing result, but thought there were some positives. Scrum and line out went well (although lineouts weren’t contested at all). Eddie James played well as did Wainwright. Williams winds me up at scrum half - but he is the best we have. France won at canter though as expected.

Ah the Boks. Instantly dislikable. Was at St Helens at that Barbarians game. Pienaar ran the show. Cricket and Rugby at St.Helens went often - my favourite was the Vetch but for Crapdiff to destroy cricket and rugby in Swansea is an absolute bloody scandal.
