    I love international rugby. No fan of the WRU though. It's been an absolutely fantastic six nations and when rugby is good it is a very entertaining game in my opinion
    Cardiff Rugby seems very white middle class

    Re: Apathy towards the egg.

    I only caught the tail end of the “amateur” era but the older I get it’s the club game I wish still existed in its previous form. Of course it’s still there, I enjoyed a cold afternoon out watching Pontypool v Newport over Xmas with a few thousand others at Pontypool Park.

    At the top level, played in the right spirit, it still can have its moments. The France/NZ game at the WC recently for example.

    But something about professionalism has changed the game, arguably not for the better. Sheer physicality, focus on defence, bit of a quagmire on rules to compensate, serious health concerns for players safety, etc.
