Quick Note

Due to other commitments I have not had an opportunity to get onto H&A before now -- and this is only a quick note. Just to say who'd have thought the top Welsh team would be the Dragons? My verdicts so far: The Blues - uninspired. The Ospreys - unforgiveable. The Scarlets - unlucky. The Dragons - unlikely heroes.

I mean come on -- Connacht beating the Blues? The EDF champions with half-a-dozen internationals and a sprinkling of Lions beating a waste-of-time development team with the nous of a Sunday League B team? I'm expecting better from the Blues and the Ospreys. We need to show the world - NZ, SA, Aus in particular - that the Magners teams can play attractive rugby and convert it into results, without being perpetually rusty as they seem to be at the moment.
