Of course but I was answering Builthy onnthe expansion.
However, more people watch and play football in Wales than rugby for sure. | |

The cowboy hat crowd do my swede in, but it’s an issue that’s not confined to Wales and it’s not confined to rugby. I was watching a news programme after the recent Euro final and they cut to a fanzone up in Newcastle Upon Tyne, there were loads wearing them. | | | |

It never will be unless they allow other countries in.
The six nations should be at least 2 divisions, then 3 in another 10 years, and eventually the game will develop.
But the existing ones don’t want that, they are scared of losing their hold on the game. | |

I have builth on ignore so wouldn’t have been aware
More players maybe but in the perception of Wales in sport is undoubtably that of a rugby nation,
We have had sone world renowned great rugby players and team.
Less so in football.
Take the great players in the 58 wirld cup out of the equation and the cupboard is pretty bear | |

Is it any wonder the four regions are struggling, Club Wales plays almost the same amount of matches in twelve months that the likes of the Ospreys etc., do. Who would want to watch the Ospreys or buy a season ticket when the team is faced with blooding their academy youngsters. | | | |

Pay all that money to watch one win and two losses .
I would rather go and watch a local game than this rubbish.
At least you will be around real fans, with passion for the game and not a bunch of stag and hen parties.
Spewing over children and making a holes of them selves. | |

One of the major reasons that Welsh rugby is dying out.
For years the 6 nations comp decimated the second half of the rugby season but the sport just about survived the great spectacle that the 6 national was/is.
However the ramping up of the nothing more than the money making exercise that is the Autumn internationals has just about finished off grass roots rugby by wrecking the first half of the season as well with so many club games now lost to both Autumn and 6 nation internationals that the season is so disjointed and players finding other things to do on Saturdays that parks games and local lower tier clubs are decimated and struggle to recover player numbers.
All to raise money to pay already well renumerated professionals and of course the Alicadoo's and camp followers on the payroll's of the various national rugby boards.
A few years ago my own local side managed the grand total of 11 games all season due to constant interruptions of international games throughout the season, the club like many others with increasing frequency now no longer exists. | | | |
