    They will keep trying to market it as the classic competition of years ago but the reality is that in the professional era it’s a complete mismatch between the teams (just check the title odds). Its future is dwindling fan interest, falling TV figures and tons of unsold over-priced seats away from Paris and Twickers.
    what's happened to Ireland then? star players retiring?

      Ageing squad, injuries and I think the pipeline of fake Irishmen from New Zealand has now dried up.

        I’d give a big shout out to all the Welsh fans that went to the game today. The writing was on the wall before kick off.

          The WRU is a money-laundering operation and the Welsh Government should step in to prevent further damage at this point. Genuinely damaging to revenue and potentially tourism at this point.

          I'm only half-joking.

                  France, if they're bothered, will double that score.

                    That’s almost as bad as my Luton prediction 😃

                        i guess the best Wales can hope for is to keep the score down to a minimum
