    Feyi-Waboso another in a long line of big, powerful wingers who get picked for one or two caps then get discarded.

    He’ll be kicking himself he didn’t choose Wales especially with LRZ’s departure

    @MiketheSnow

    It seems to be a typically English thing to concentrate on what a player can’t do than what he can. Not just rugby but footy and cricket too. See Hoddle v Batty or Devon Malcolm v a long list of line and length medium pacers.

    Anything less than a Grand Slam would be disappointing to be honest

    @MiketheSnow Dunno if you saw the Exeter game yesterday but your Wales skipper got red carded for a high tackle. Technically a correct decision but you have to feel for him, he went really low but the attacking player went even lower. I’d hope the red would be punishment enough.

    Yeah my mistake. Yellow it was. What was a bit odd though was that Jenkins' head on head was pretty solid albeit with the mitigation of him going really quite low. Hawkins was upright but to me there wasn't any clear head on head, as in actual contact. It looked to me that the big Bayonne guy just brushed him off.

    @MiketheSnow Is Plumtree injured or just not selected? I know that Gatland looked at him last year.

    The fact that he has not been playing for the woeful, but injury ravaged, Scarlets sort of indicates he must be injured. And so does this

    Ryan Elias takes over captaincy for Edinburgh clash

    Wales hooker Ryan Elias takes over the captaincy for the Scarlets’ EPCR Challenge Cup tie against Edinburgh Rugby at Parc y Scarlets on Friday night (20:00; S4C). With Josh Macleod sidelined by the…

    If he has been available before last week the fact that he has not been playing would mean he would be miles away from Wales selection.

    So we’ve lost Lawrence who was in great form and would have played outside Smith, Beard also injured. Martin and Lawrence massive losses given other options, not sure how long the latter will be out for

    That’s a real shame

    Lawrence was the form centre in the 6N

    I see that WR is now including the "other TMO" in their match official appointments. They are known as the Foul Play Review Official (FPRO). They are only listed closer to the date of the test.
