It’s hilarious that they’ve become public because the WRU submitted an FOI request. You couldn’t make this stuff up!
If you would ever like me to produce something on sports governance or head injuries in rugby, please just ask!
That assumes they know what the worst elements of the worst messes in American military history are. I wonder what they think happened in Vietnam?!?
Wales are top of the Six Nations going into the final round. The only thing stopping anyone thinking otherwise is the application of the results in the tournament to date.
Uh oh. This is going to put the Georgian national side back a decade.

He’s evil personified.
That’s usually the case with us … could go either way, especially after last weekend
Agreed. And Økland is the only possible interim Chair. But will they manage to fill the non-exec position?
That’s quite the admission.
Possibly, but the chain of succession should have been sorted out before the EGM was ever mooted … but perhaps it was, and that has now been rescinded pending the EGM.
Where’s the succession planning? The governance failings here are substantial.
I’d suggest that motion is dropped but it raises an important question re succession planning. He’s only going 2 days early; why hasn’t a proper replacement been appointed rather than having to have an interim in place?
I think that’s what must be happening - but I wouldn’t trust the US as the reinsurer at the moment.
It’s not even about insurable losses - what about crew etc?
I worked for SwissRe a very long time ago … they’ll have all the phones on divert for a while!
Etzebeth got a full red on the pitch and a much longer sanction (12 weeks reduced from 16 I think) and even that wasn’t long enough! Four weeks is pathetic.
A compromise we can all get behind surely
What I immediately wonder is what’s in it for Chubb because no underwriter would willingly take this risk, and no reinsurer will back it …
Underwriters globally watching this and making bloody certain they have no exposure.
Very effective way to ensure that no shipping goes through the Straits.
And I’m sitting pretty in the US and don’t give a crap about the people who will be killed and maimed
So while the US is demanding help from the EU, they’re also doing this …
I’m starting to think he’s got a lot of oil futures …
There’s so much rugby intellect in Wales, I’m sure if you got them all in a room together and brain stormed it freely (no silly ideas etc), some really viable and sensible solutions would appear.
I’m a finance type with a history degree … I share your frustrations!
Good point!
Still undecided …
Happy Anniversary!
That’s quite the take 🤦♀️
I had to check that Ugo ‘only’ has 14 caps; half of the others I’ve never heard of. Did they just want a piss up in Bordeaux?
