Interesting choice of game by BBC Wales, Cardiff have nothing to play for themselves, but could help out Ospreys in terms of making top 6 by stopping Edinburgh getting the 5 match points.

I hear speculation that Mexico requested "no publicity" after their embarrassing crowd of just over 10000 in their last home game, fearing an empty RDS. :shock: :shock: :shock: >EW

I thought at first the comment " Not live" against the RDS game was a comment on the home team rather than the TV broad cast.

Good game for Zebre to have, need to score 1 more match point than Treviso to take the Italian Euro spot. Edinburgh need a BP win and hope for other results to go their way to make Top 6 (Null points for Munster and Ospreys don't win).

It's on delayed coverage anyway, not live - Giro D'Italia has started.

A surprising result in Italy today, OK Zebre won to get the Italian spot in Europe for next year, but did it by putting 47 pts on the Dragons. Thats a hammering :roll: :shock:

Shirley you have to.......

According to S' Fever, they were only beaten by Nigel being awful or at least not biased in their favour, aided by the corrupt TMO Marshall Kilgore.

Munster were lucky because Scarlets outplayed them and denied them much of the ball, but everytime they did get it, they scored.

Generally happy though to be best of the Welsh regions and one place improved on last season - ergo with another one place improvement next season they will be in the play-offs and are going to rule the world ...... well Europe anyway (bit like ourselves).

Complained about their own team's lack of savvy in taking on penalties when even some guy in Kenya knew that only a 4 try victory would see them past Ulster (despite them knowing we already had victory with a bonus point in the bag).

It was all a tactical ploy anyway though as with no Welsh in the play-offs, the welsh will be well rested and prepared for their summer tour.

First time I've been on SF for yunks ....I have been edumacated! :D

Italian teams working on a smaller budget than Newport GD.

The Italians will continue to struggle until they can afford to make it an attractive proposition for their best players to play in Italy.

From an Ulster point of view I'm more than happy to have Zebre and Treviso here twice a year for a near capacity crowd and the revenue that brings.
