General Chat

Just got in from my shift in Penrhiwceiber pit. Missed it all. Someone told me that Leigh got all 18 points from miles out and rest of boys made very elementary mistakes.

All VERY depressing. But Hymns and Arias has lifted me a lot and have been singing away. Thanks Jem. It is not your fault. Or Shaun's :-) ;-) You did your best.

Hi John :-) :-)

Yes Likewise!

I've been torn between wanting Ireland to win their matches, but also, not wanting them to have the advantage over Wales.

Now Wales are out of the running, my support will go to Ireland. :-)

HOPING WALES WILL WIN THEIR LAST GAME!:-) :-)

It's going to be a long afternoon on Saturday- but an enjoyable one! :-D :-D

Fantastic job, Jem :-D :-D

Have written to Genes and asked if your fee could be increased for reports next year. Not had a reply yet. In fact, if anyone has ever got a reply from Genes perhaps they could post that fact and we can all marvel at it :-D :-D ;-)

Good Afternoon Rugby Fans :-) :-)

WARREN GATLAND HAS MADE HIS DECISION

THE CHANGES:
1. The enforced replacement at the number 15 position (full-back) of our injured LEIGH HALFPENNY :-( :-( who suffered a dislocated shoulder in the last game.
He is replaced by LIAM WILLIAMS. Liam, will not be doing the kicking for Wales, however. The kicking duties will return to the number 10 (Fly Half)

2. Fly Half position (number 10) now goes to my preferred choice- DAN BIGGAR :-)
RHYS PRIESTLAND is now on the replacements bench.

3. Our MIKE PHILLIPS has been returned to number 9 shirt (Scrum-Half) YEY! :-)
Rhys Webb who had taken his place is injured.
MIKE WILL NEED TO KEEP THAT SHORT FUSE DEFUSED :-D

RHODRI WILLIAMS is his replacement on the bench.
Watch out for Rhodri Williams. He played an amazing game in the Under 20s Wales squad.

4. SHOCK- ADAM JONES (no 3- Tight-Head Prop) is relegated to the bench also. His position has now gone to RHODRI JONES

5. KEN OWENS has taken number 2 (Hooker) position from RICHARD HIBBARD who is now also on the bench.

6. LUKE CHARTERIS is back at second row (number 4) having recovered from his injury. JAKE BALL who stood in for him is now on the subs bench.
