Wasn't it wonderful to see 30 proud men about to represent their country, belting out their national anthems.

I think I've said it before but if there is a finer sound in sport than 70,000 Welsh singing their anthem, then I don't know what it it.

YNWA maybe but not quite.

No need to feel sorry for me Firo. The sheer stupidity of our players was unbelievable. 10 Points ahead with 7 minutes to go, the ref rightly warns our players about persistent infringemnes and what happens we almost immediately commit another one and are down to 14.

Wales might well have had a penalty try for the trip and in the end we got exactly what our stupidity deserved.

I am an avid rugby union fan, and a proud Welshman,I don't think I have EVER witnessed such drama in the last 10 minutes of ANY game. The match against Scotland is always a special event both sporting and socially with reciprocal friendships bonded over decades of visits.

I thought Wales were poor to say the least for 60 mins, whilst Scotland were very strong with a sound game plan, Dan Parks was inspirational, but I have to agree with the problem of indiscipline (something we are more than familiar with - Alun - Trip Jones at Trippenham !!), nevertheless breathtaking stuff !!

Da iawn
