Good to see the young fella get another start. He looked like a real test prospect last year. Let’s hope he sees some ball.

Looking forward to this WE and the 6N kicking off. Be interesting to see England & Wales go this year and whether Italy can kick on from their form of last year.
Think Wales could surprise Ireland. Seems to me they are only a few top inches away from being a bloody competitive team.
Oh, and the WRU have banned Delilah being sung by the choir - it's a toxic song now apparently. Good to know the WRU have their priorities sorted....

“The WRU condemns domestic violence of any kind. We have previously sought advice from subject matter experts on the issue of censoring the song and we are respectfully aware that it is problematic and upsetting to some supporters because of its subject matter.”

Contemptible nonsense.

Hasn't stopped them playing Max Bloody Boyce's song "9-3" about Llanelli beating the AB's in '72 though, has it?

the term "virtue signalling" gets thrown around a lot
but this is a textbook version, with a bit of "see we're not bad" thrown in. Given the reports coming out around the culture at WRU this right here is the worst version of crack papering i have ever seen.
There are few modern words i hate more than "problematic"

I think that's ingenious. We have a problem within our organisation so we've addressed it by banning people not in the organisation from singing a song.

Sounds ominous Mike. You have some sauce on this? Are you able to say anything privately?

Joking aside you do have to wonder how much player movement to countries not of their birth/origin has created a more level playing field in international rugby.
