    I really enjoyed the Ospreys game and was chuffed they won, felt the Scarlets played pretty well to be honest. The Ospreys kicked wide to put pressure on either Scarlet wing for the first 50 mins a lot which didn't realy look like it worked that well. Thought James had a great game at 12 and I agree Watkin had a good game too. Mee looks like he could be an absolute weapon if he puts on a bit of muscle at 6ft4.
    I watched the Newport game on TV, thought Newport had a really good first half but let it slip second half. AOB's kicking game impressed me especially in the first half and that cross field kick for that Dyer try with the touch of his foot was excellent all round. This made Sheedy who had a bad game in general look even worse imo and he should be nowhere near the Wales squad. I think Mann was a bit lucky to not see a yellow in this game as well. Woodman had a good game too and Adams is starting to look back at it for me which is excellent.
    I really don't think the regions are quite as bad as people make out a lot of the time, there's definitely talent there. Great video as always mate!!

    Agreed the Cardiff v Dragons game wasnt the best but some good individual performances, Josh Adams looks like he slowly getting back to his best and Woodman look really good for the Dragons. Also great to see Elliot Dee back considering we are short of hookers again and i really dont wanna see Elias starting for Wales.

    Great video I know it was Dees first game back in a long time but I'm not convinced that anyone can be close in filling dewi lakes shoes. I'm worried about all the players injured Grady, Lake, beard etc etc

    Scarlets are still way better than last year, but their subs weakened them, Ospreys subs improved their side.

      Yeah no doubt. They’ve improved a lot. There’s not far away from getting on a good run

    It’ll come for scarlets they’re not a million miles away. Ospreys need to work on being fitter, sometimes look way out of their depth. WRU should never have put the dragons back under private control should’ve used them to develop youth to feed the other three regions who have historically performed better. As a Cardiff fan to see where they have come from all those near misses last year, looks like they’ve learned and now are getting those type of results their way. Two teams in the top 8 this season is definitely achievable.

      Yeah agree totally mate. It’s going to be tough for Cardiff to stay where they are but I agree that top 8 is minimum we should be hoping for and I think scarlets will get there too

    The incident near the end of the dragons game wasn’t a knock but, the Cardiff scrum half kicked it back into the ruck and the Cardiff player on the floor grabbed the ball. It should have been a scrum to dragons for accidental offside or a penalty for a player on the ground playing the ball.
    I’ve no idea why dragons didn’t compete at that late lineout either, as they’d won several turn overs throughout the game.
    I have a feeling the new laws pretty much allow you to throw it not straight if the other team doesn’t compete.

      Yeah I thought that was the laws too but I’ve seen them given and not given so I’m not 100% 😂

    Dragons went 15 up & I knew straight away they would through It away. I do think they should be doing better for the players they have, especially back row which is very good

      There’s just not much composure when they get into winning situations. Happened a few times this season. They just don’t know how to win do they
