When I was in the UK last week, I attended a charity function in the company of many great names in Welsh Rugby, both on and off field. One was Jonathan Davies, the Scarlets centre who’s outstanding in any era. His highlights reel showed how much the national side miss players like him and the […]
August 20, 2025 Possibly the biggest event in Women’s sport takes place in the UK from Friday night onwards, namely the Womens’ Rugby World Cup 2025. Let us park the fact that The Red Roses of England are the hottest favourites of any team in any sporting competition ever – perhaps other than when Tiger […]
