In this episode of The Attacking Scrum, Ged is joined by Christian Nicholas from The Welsh Sports Channel to make sense of another chaotic chapter in Welsh rugby.
They dive deep into the WRU’s regional restructuring proposals, from four unequal regions to the possibility of three or even two elite sides, and what that means for players, fans, and the game’s future. The conversation also explores the potential role of Super Rygbi Cymru (SRC) as a bridge between grassroots rugby and the professional level, and whether it can help reconnect Welsh rugby with its supporter base.
Then attention turns to the latest developments around Mike Tindall’s proposed R360 breakaway league, which hit major resistance as nine national unions announced bans for players who sign up. Could this radical idea reshape global rugby, or is it destined to collapse under the weight of politics and power?
From funding models and fan frustration to the global tug-of-war over the sport’s future, Ged and Christian break down where Welsh rugby goes next, and what it will take to fix it.
