    Wales' best reult for a couple of years?

    England miss out on the Under-20 Six Nations title - and a first Grand Slam since 2021- as they are beaten by Wales at Cardiff Arms Park.

        Without any question. From 3-13 down against a formidable England side who were nailed on for grand slam according to anyone you could find with a view on it. Fantastic performance and a genuine seed of hope!

          I was invited down there by a client last night and I don’t think I’ve met a more jumped up bunch of self important stewards than those on duty last night. I thought the CCS was bad but they were different level last night. I was there 2 hours before kick off and still took me 30 minutes for them to let me park and get my accreditation, or to us lesser a folk “a wristband”.

                It was a very decent crowd, but clearly not "full". It holds over 12,000, I think the attendance was 8,000. You'll always know if it's full, spectators will crowd behind the posts at each end.

                  Fair point. Still, a decent crowd.

                      Arms Park has probably had some bigger crowds than at the CCS recently.

                      Think the Blues (or whatever they’re called these days) have been selling out games quite a lot the past few seasons.

                        They've played 8 matches at home this season. Apart from v Ospreys they've averaged around 7000. That will include a couple of thousand hospitality/frees.

                          Abi Tierney seems like a bonkers appointment for Chief Executive.

                            Sold out a few games last year and a few games the season before. Some of our midweek games this season are probably close to 12k.

                              So a side playing our supposed "national" game in its top division and playing the best sides in Europe might be getting closer than normal in terms of crowds to a side who has been struggling towards the bottom of its second tier for a few years.

                              Nothing to see here.
