It was another table-topping, semi-final losing season for the Rags, and while it raises questions about the entire club's ability to win a knockout game, the answers may come in the next set of Academy youngsters the SRC will see.

- At this point the international referees panel should refuse to officiate games involving South Africa until World Rugby takes action against Rassie Erasmus. The pile-ons he has sparked from his weird cult members towards Nic Berry and now Wayne Barnes are simply unacceptable.
- The video we all needed…Corey Domachowski stuck on a child’s playground seat! I’m crying 😂😂😂
00:00 - Two weeks after Semi Radradra is red carded with no mitigation for always being illegal we see Sam Prendergast yellow carded due to mitigation despite always being illegal. I wonder what the differences between those two players are 🤔🟨 Yellow on first start in 🔟 for Sam Prendergast! 📺 The TMO will review wether it needs to be upgraded 🫣 #AutumnNationsSeries | #IREvFIJ
00:00 - Sam Warburton’s comments on the WRU governance are spot on. “I’m sure the people there have the best intentions and should have a place in the community game, but shouldn’t have a place in deciding what happens to a £100m turnover company that are trying to win a RWC.” AMEN 👏🏻
- Warren Gatland is spot on, we massively punch above our weight. A country of 3 million people where rugby isn’t even the most played sport. Only Scotland in tier one have fewer registered players than us. Credit to him and his players for what they have achieved.
- One clear take away from tonight. Martyn Phillips failing to offer Shaun Edwards a four-year contract is the biggest Welsh rugby mistake since Glanmor Griffiths turned down an Anglo-Welsh League. In fact, he should have been offered an open ended contract.
- As the Football Association of Wales reap the rewards of the innovative and engaging fan culture they helped create, the tired and stale Welsh Rugby Union watch even the most daffodil-headed Six Nations obsessive vote with their sheux. cardiffbluesblog.com/2022/03/26/out…
- Imagine winning MOTM against the Boks, suffering a knee injury that needs at least 3 surgeries and keeps you out for over 2 years, spending 10 months getting back to fitness and returning with a (should have been) MOTM performance against the Boks. Ellis Jenkins is superhuman.
- Of course we’ve all seen Warren Gatland play mind games before, but I’ve never seen him pack up his entire belongings and move rent free into someone’s head like he has done with Rassie Erasmus. The bloke has absolutely crumbled.
- Bilbao 2018 v Bloemfontein 2022 Gareth Anscombe is the man for the big moments.
00:00 - I think it’s worth saying that it’s perfectly possible to believe that the WRU is a shambolic and amateur organisation which is killing professional rugby in Wales, but also believe that Wayne Pivac is currently doing a poor job as Wales head coach.
- Arms Park looked absolutely pumping tonight. First thing Harry Thomas does in his post-game interview is acknowledge the 16th man. Maybe having the 20s playing next door to the senior game on the night before is quite a good idea after all? 🤷🏼♂️
