A Welsh team entirely consising of the ospreys....I mean come on so many great players from sides like Newport, the Cardiff Blues, The Scarlets and side consisting of 13 Ospreys, that's ONE Welsh team against a selective team from across England. Same could have been said for us if England won. No, Fair is fair, Victory was due in that second half, We were down 16 - 9 when I left for the pub coming out of the first half, playing away, With a full Ospreys side (Which wether or not we can call a good thing is debatable) and we came back and made it a game to be remembered. It was a fair victory to a deserving team. Regardless of wether or not we want to sit here and be blindingly patriotic. I'd have probably taken R-T's attitude but I wouldn't have made any excuses for us if we'd lost.
First time away in 20 years playing England away, Was a long time coming and an inevitability at the end of the day, and It made great for the gig I had that night.
And considering I've opened up a can of worms now and ofcourse one of you is going to be blindingly patriotic, Ill have to finish on a blindingly patriotic note.
*ahem*
