    If I wanted to watch 30 fellas shoving their heads up each other's arses, I'd watch a porn channel.

    That sounds like a hell of a film mate. Not my cup of tea but, whatever floats your boat I suppose.

    I enjoy watching international rugby , not fussed on the club game

    I would agree with you on butler but I am still going to watch

    Apart from the build up and post match analysis

    The press gets on my tits , inside first pages of western mail was not about the death of the assembly member , carwyn Jones or armistice Day , it was a two page waffle on the rugby ff sake

    If I wanted to watch a game of rugby I’d nip along to my local club and watch from the touch line.
    I can relate to that.

    Watching an international feels fake.

    It’s like watching a band in a small club against watching X factor.

    And of course the fact that Goslow, Feedback and Splott David may be watching too....

    Why doesn't that apply for football then?

    It’s difficult to explain, I guess it just feels like a typical rugby international is too much razzmatazz these days, an event to be seen at. A club game is more about the game.

    I like Eddie Butler but agree on the weird priorities the press have in Wales

    I Like the game and will watch it, but only the game, nothing else, no build up, no post match analysis etc. to keep the aussies within 20 points today will be a decent result. Gatland has achieved good results for Wales but his brand of rugby is now outdated and i think its time for a change, the regions need to change as well, I thought LLanelli had started the trend of open expansive rugby last year but they do not seemed to have kicked on this season.

    I think you are safe with this one the pace at which Australia attacke is something our players do not see week in week out, whilst we will get comfortably beat, at least we are seemingly looking to move away from Warren Ball
