I haven't seen that movie

I wouldn't recommend it, it's very depressing.

Might cheer @MiketheSnow up.

Wales score to avoid a record home defeat.

The 2005 All Blacks' record stands!

Botham scored for Wales.

Wales 12 South Africa 45. But the gulf between these teams was a lot more than that.

Last try wins.

Boks never had to get out of 2nd gear.

If I was CEO of Wales Rugby, I'd be on the phone to a lot of NPC players without Super Rugby contracts seeing if they want to play for Wales in the Six Nations.

The Boks finish 2024 as they finished 2023. On top of the world. They set the standards and, at the moment, no one is catching them.

@sparky I can see another 6 Nations wooden spoon incoming but then Italy went about 8 years in a row in that spot & weren't relegated so it'd be a bit harsh 😁

It's time for Netherlands to get a chance.

@sparky are there any decent ones with Welsh heritage?
I'd definitely take a couple of south African monsters if they had a Welsh granny.
We just don't produce physical specimens unfortunately. Test matches are becoming more & more physical and if you lose that contest it's game over.

Am I the only one who is seeing Slobodan Milosevic at The Hague?

I didn't know the Hague allowed conjugal visits.

Well, you did in the backs a few years ago. North, Roberts, Cuthbert, Phillips etc were all absolute monsters for the positions they played.

I wonder, has Wales seen a massive decrease in manual farm labour? Seems to be good background training for forwards.
