French supporter next to me buys a small bottle of red wine in the stadium £6.
Sits down and the pulls out of his coat pocket
Mature Cheddar cheese and olives from tesco👍
That is Priceless. 🇫🇷
At Christmas, i set myself a target to shift 3 stone in 6 months. This morning, I'm 3 months in (Half Way) and currently 2 stone 2lbs down. I am really enjoying the process and getting back to being fit and healthy again.

Just met a grandfather who has gone back to college to learn Welsh.
Because his grandchildren have started Welsh school.
I think that is fekking superb. 👌💗
Its the world we live in now when Gareth Bale donates 500k each to two hospitals and yet he is still criticized because of the money he earns.
Just remember he does NOT have to give anything away.
1 Million is an Unbelievable gesture 👌👍
Lions 🦁 Squad announced on Thursday 👍
If you feel disappointed that a certain player should NOT be going and someone else should, don't tag him in and tell him that, just remember he has just reached the pinnacle in his sport 👍 and you are sat on the settee watching 📺

When you pick a rugby ball up as a kid, it's every kids dream to play for your country 🏴 Yesterday he did that, and it was captured beautifully 😢 I bet his parents have his cap on the fireplace this Sunday afternoon and are just staring at it. Proud
Matt Hancock is on every TV show at the moment asking for forgiveness and apologising for the things he's done.
You can never ever trust a man that passes a rugby ball like that.
Taulupe Faletau played one game of rugby in god knows how long and then he puts in a performance like that at test match level. 👏 That is incredible and he is a world class player. I can't get my head around how he can do that if I'm honest.
One last thing on the game yesterday 🏴🏴
Cuthbert plays bad and 3 Million people comment on him.
Cuthbert plays well and 30 people comment on him.
To come back from what he's gone through is incredible and remember he has 50 caps more than you and me. 🏴👍
I'm playing golf 🏌️♂️ ⛳️ in a few weeks, so I've just put my golf gear on that I wore last June in Portugal at my heaviest.
Last summer, I couldn't do up my button on my shorts, and my polo shirt was like a lycra top.
There is a slight difference now.
Portugal in June 👌
So Started my Healthy Eating and training plan on July 17th the day after my family holidays where i was in a bad place.
13 weeks later I'm happy with results and never letting myself back into that mess again.
Stay Focused and enjoy the process and anything is possible. 👌
30 years ago kids picked a rugby ball up to and have visions of running with it and expressing themselves with a big smile on their face ❤️
Today I'm guessing they visualise to chase kicks and run through brick walls 😢
Its getting very boring Union is and it breaks my heart 💔
Can someone somewhere get a quick word with Tom Jones and his reaction to the news today 😢
The thing is, he could sell out the Principality Stadium next summer, BUT he's got every right now to tell them to 'Shove it' after the news today.
1999 - Remember Those Days 👍
Brian Moore is a big lose for 6 Nations Rugby 🏉
He's not about stats and graphs but his voice is all about this time of year.
Character and someone who don't give a rats ass about anything or anyone is wonderful imo.
Alun Wyn Jones heads towards a recording breaking weekend. The most capped Rugby Union player of all time. 👏
And it all started at Bon-y-maen Rugby Club.
Every legend of the game starts at their local rugby club and it will always be like that.
Club Rugby is everything 👍❤️
The big department stores have lost their way in producing Christmas adverts that are relatable. 🎅
This is produced by a pub, and it's by far the best one yet. It's beautifully sad, but it's real people / real life ❤️😪👏
Ramsey is getting a lot of abuse right now because of his performance BUT no matter how he plays and what he does his BOY + his family will always be proud of his him for getting Wales to the World Cup and we should be aswell. Its just a game of football ⚽️
Biggest advice i could give to a young player / parents that have been offered an academy full time contract is that you look at a college course on the side.
Get a trade of some sort to fall back on.
Hitting the big bad world at 21 with no trade is a horrible place.
Remember when ScrumV showed premiership rugby and also Rick Oshea or Phil Steele would go and watch a grassroots rugby game and interview the players / supporters that is when you connect with the people of Wales. Must do something to bring that back or do they really not care 😥
I'm going to Portugal tomorrow on a golf trip in a slightly different shape than what I was this time 12 months ago. I've eaten a few steaks a couple of eggs and walked a few miles the last 6 months, and I'm happy how it's gone so far + hit my targets ✔️👍

If the Wales players refuse to leave the Vale Hotel and go on strike the day of the England game I for one, would be absolutely 💯 behind that.
It could happen
It might happen
I think it needs to happen at some stage to sort it out for the players' sake. 👍
Sportsmanship at it's finest 👏

Spare a thought tomorrow for the people who have payed good money to watch wales play and are sat next to someone who has no clue what game they are watching and just there for the craic. 😉
Run
Tackle him
Get him
Pass
Go go go
Who's he
Lets go at half time.
😉
Enjoy 🏴
ITV 4 to watch the trophy 🏆 presentation to Ireland 🇮🇪 😪
IF England won the Grand Slam Ant + Dec would be told to hold the show for 30 mins that is guaranteed 🤔
Stinks 📺
Shaun Edwards has just signed a 4 year contract extension with France so he ain't coming back to Wales🏴
He wanted that off the WRU and was told NO and allowed to just move on.
Madness......
Props are NOT built in the gym, lifting weights and drinking protein.
They are built by playing the game week in week out, scrummaging, and drinking lager on the weekend with a nice Kebab 👍
They always have been.
Opsreys props outstanding tonight 👏
The Game 🏉
Ireland class 1st half
We had a bit of a fight back, but Ireland too much class.
The Stadium 🏟
£7 a pint
18 times stood up + sat down from my seat during the game people walking about.
Not one song, first half, not one.
Shocking atmosphere
It's a worry 😟
The Welsh Italian Scrum Half Stephen Varney has just given an interview on S4C speaking in Welsh 👌🏉 That's brilliant 👏
Speaks Welsh + Italian, what more could you ask for 😀 🏴🇮🇹
Fantastic 👏
Just seen a comment on twitter that Alun Wyn Jones was looking old and tired yesterday.
I was at the game yesterday he covered every blade of grass when the game was in play, and even when the ball was kicked in the stand he run up the steps to get it.
#Machine
Sam Warburton is so good at Comms 🎙
He lets the lead man lead and jumps in when he can, but when he does, his knowledge + understanding his class.
So many assist comms talk for the sake of talking or fekking crack jokes and giggle at themselves.
Take note of Warby 👌
Watching my boy play u12's football and the referee is of the same age and I think that's brilliant 👏 Both coaches + supporters fantastic with him. Well done that young man. Can you imagine that at u12's Rugby games 🏉 Not a chance 😥
Why are people giving one of the greatest sportsman to come out of Wales in Gareth Bale shite over excepting an MBE ? Because them people don't agree with the Royal Family 🙄 Regardless of that its a reward for everything he's done for the game and Wales and football.
When i fall into into my house in the early hours and my Mrs says to me.
Lee.
Why have you got so drunk ?
I will just show her this picture and that will explain my state. 👌🏉💗
What i miss most about club rugby in wales is the Sausage, beans and chips every club serves up after the game 👌 and if your lucky some bread + butter 😉
Every Saturday without fail ❤️
#MissingMost
George North is world class.
He's a 🦁
Do Not do a cuthbert on him please.
Because he will be back and wining us (wales) games very soon.
Trust me he will. 🏴
Welsh football fans sing the Anthem better than the Rugby fans at the moment ? Convince me otherwise!
Bale can screw a ball like me fair play to him some talent that boy has.
🏴⚽️
So England v France & Japan v Scotland might not go ahead as scheduled this weekend because of the typhoon.
That's nothing.
Play a game up Gilfach Goch on a Wednesday night in December.
Lucky to come out of that alive.
That's not a typhoon, that's hell.
If some parents are struggling with kids rugby / football boots because all shops are shut i have a few sizes here you could have and box up as a present 🏉 ⚽ DM me a size boot 😉 and kicking tee
January 2018 - Steve Tandy gets sacked from the Ospreys.
April 2021 - Steve Tandy gets named as an Assistant Lions Coach. 🦁
Disappointments are part of life, it builds character and makes you even more determined to succeed.
Well fekking done mate. 👌
Tandy The Lion 👍
One thing i do love about local club rugby is the teams own linesmen.
They love that job.
Eye sight of a Golden Eagle when the oposition are near his touchline, flag up straight away.
But..
Blind as a bat when it comes to his side and the touchline. 😂😂
Classic.. 👌
I thought the tribute last night before the game for Clive Rowlands with Jac Morgan really set the tone for that great win ♥️
It also showed us the importance of grassroots clubs in Wales. They are the foundations to our game and national side. Without them, there are no players
Thomas Young MOM for wasps 👍
One of the best 7's in the Uk.
But he not allowed to play for his country 🏴
Lets be honest that is a Joke.
The quicker they ban the 60 cap rule the better IMO.
Best players should be wearing the Red of Wales wereever they are playing 🏴 Simple
If somebody gave me two choices right now 🤔
1. You have to sit and watch all the pundits' reactions back in the studio 🎙
2. You have to walk up Pen y Fan right now in your pants + flip flops.
I'd say, go and get my Flip Flops
I'm walking 🚶♂️
Wales V Ireland next week.
Pundits in the Studio
Jiffy, Warby, nugget,
Comms
Butler, Phil Bennett
Pitchside
Shane W, Jamie R, G Edwards
Ref
Nigel
Pre game anthem
Tom Jones
That will do right there. 👌🏉
Turning over the rugby, our national sport because the games are so poor is heart breaking IMO 😢
More people are watching the darts right now im guessing and that is fekking Awful and sums up our game at the moment 💔
That's my opinion 👍
After this virus has passed and all is clear i will hold a kicking clinic and scholl free of charge for 11-16 year olds and 16 - 22 year olds at
@RFCMerthyr
winner of each age group will 2 tickets for the autumn Internationals free of charge i will donate.
So retweet and,👍
I'm guessing by the end of next week, the WRU will announce that the 25 cap rule is in the bin🗑
The best players need to be playing for Wales.
Simple.
🏴 🏉
#LoveClubRugby
Right about now you would finishing your club rugby game and either celebrating a win or pissed off with a loss.
Quick shower, slap some aftershave on and wet look gel and ready for a few beers in the rugby club bar and sausage, beans + chips.
Missing that BIG T.
ITV need to quickly get the pre game content right.
Before a game, there needs to be
Interviews in camp with players and coaches and also quick chat arriving at stadium
Maybe chat to supporters outside stadium to see the excitement
It's all in the studio chat
Boring 😪
The boy played u12 rugby today (Tight Head) before the game I said to him score 3 tries and get £10. He didn't score BUT played well and informed me after the game that 'He does all the shitty work that I never done as a back' great point again 👏so I gave him £5 for being cheeky
Listen to Sam Warburton comms and his input during this game.
He talks about the game and detail in what is happening and what we are watching.
He does NOT talk for the sake of talking and giggle at his own jokes.
Take note every one please 🙏
Sky Sports needs to have a word with Wayne Mardle because he obviously doesn't like Gezzy Price, and for it to come across so blatantly on commentary is not professional at all. PATHETIC.
We need to celebrate any team doing well in Wales 🏴when I read comments from some rugby supporters regarding the football's Anthem and support have a word with yourself. Don't blame them blame the fekking union that we don't have that at the moment.
They are doing it right✅️
Ask Clive Woodward a question on the Second World War and i guarantee you within 3 sentences he will find a way turn that question round and mention The England Rugby Team and talk about them 😟👏
England rugby union captain Owen Farrell clear to play in autumn's World Cup after his red card from Saturday's warm-up match against Wales is overturned
The football International atmosphere compared to the rugby International atmosphere is shockingly so far apart
My last game at the stadium watching the rugby was flat, awful in fact 😕
They need to look at what the FAW are doing to put a show on.
I'm guessing the same people who are down cardiff bay right now will be the same people still in bed with a hangover at 1pm tomorrow afternoon with mammy and daddy bringing you up a sick bowl and water all day long looking after you 👌
Surely, the Opsreys would rather see a full St Helens with a great atmosphere than an empty liberty that's flat. Look at that 👍
There is no better place to play on a flat ground than that place.
Begs the question, really 🤔
Finn Russell getting called a Magician for Chippy the ball over rushing defence 🙄
Barry John would of side stepped, thrown a dummy and then run round the fullback, thats what you call a Magician 👍😉
Happy Birthday to this LEGEND ❤️
Looked upto him as a kid growing up and what he was about and stood for ❤️ Incredibly humble bloke and would do anything for you even in his prime 👍
A fantastic bloke and human being.
Have a good one mate 👌
I have so much respect for Jonny Willkinson as a player and what he has achieved 👏 BUT I feel everytime he answers the simplest of questions, I'm back in school in Psychology class and not giving my teacher the full attention because I'm lost and forgot what the questions was.
IF you are Nigel Walker was watching the scenes at Cardiff City Stadium last night he must be wondering how can he replicate that Passion coming from the supporters back down at the Principality Stadium 🏟 Because let's be honest it gone to the dogs IMO and that's sad. 😥
Can't blame Cory Hill
Its a no brainer
29 years old
3 years in France
Double his money
Puts him in a better position financially when he retires
Wales dropping him straight away 🤔
Poor IMO.
Good luck mate. 👌
