Summary

Danny, Ashy and Chris dissect another dismal day for Wales as they end 2025 with a record home defeat. How much would the young Welsh players actually have learned from their 73-0 defeat to South Africa? We also discuss Eben Etzebeth’s red card for the eye gouge on Alex Mann that took the shine off another dominant Springboks win. We look at the return of the Prem and debate whether it’s easier than ever to score tries in the league. Will we see Benhard Janse van Rensburg in an England shirt in the near future? There is another setback for R360 and we look ahead to Wednesday’s World Cup draw.
