Wow - Where have the Welsh rugby crowds gone - Empty stands for a empty structure in a empty and lost soul that was Welsh rugby.

It is shocking the personal attacks I get for just saying what Gatland and many leading reporters, coaches and players say. I attack nobody and will apologise to anybody who if offended by my tweets - Will always encourage people to mute or block me if do not like my views.

Go the Pitmen Youth - Scotland trip creates memories for life. Rugby for the soul.

Rugby - We all used to tackle waist and below. That is how we were all taught upto when game went pro and power hits and smash up rugby became the norm. Rugby was a great sport then and will be in future.

Wales now learning how good Gatland was. Reality time for Welsh rugby today - Our structure does not help.

Heard 3,000 fans went to support Caerphilly Youth last week at WRU finals. Sneggy or Penallta could pull same - Incredible level of rugby supporters in Valleys.

Really shocked by way Eng players treated medals for runners up in world cup final. Rugby about respect and this was not respectful.
