On 21st October 2026, the OSC were invited by Ospreys to attend a session in the Senedd to discuss the future of west Wales rugby and rugby in Wales.

Rams HC Sean McVay told reporters that the team will not place Puka Nacua on injured reserve due to roster mechanics, but that the WR still will be out for a “significant period of time.”
Barnsley have gone full festive early 🤩
Yorkshire pudding wrap 💷 £8.95
Pigs in blankets with gravy 💷 £4.95
That wrap is packed with sausage, meat, stuffing and cranberry sauce, so £8.95 for a full Christmas dinner you can eat in your seat is decent value by football ground standards. Get both and call it a proper matchday 🤝
#MINvsGB officiating crew cheat sheet
Divisional HOME teams are an #NFL best 50-17 SU (75%) & 44-21-2 ATS (68%) w' referee John Hussey since 2016
This will be Hussey's first Divisional game of 2026
Minnesota avgs the FEWEST penalties per game
Green Bay has the biggest ROAD vs HOME penalty splits in 2026
#Packers perform well @LambeauField but highly penalized on the road
OFFENSIVE HOLDING was a major issue for GB early in 2026 but they're improving & need to keep that going on Sunday
The @Vikings DEFENSE a top 3 unit generating OFFENSIVE HOLDING penalties on opponents
However, the John Hussey crew avgs the second FEWEST OFF-HOLD penalties per game in 2026
Keep an eye on FALSE STARTS. That category has skyrocketed in 2026 & Hussey does call above avg penalties in this category
The Hussey crew above avg enforcement of ILLEGAL CONTACT & DEFENSIVE PASS INTERFERENCE
The #Packers offense a top 10 BENEFICIARY of DEFENSIVE PASS INTERFERENCE penalties
Noteworthy is the #Raiders w' Cousins also a top 10 beneficiary of D.P.I calls
The @Vikings OFFENSE was the No.1 BENEFICIARY of AUTOMATIC 1st DOWNS via penalty in the Cousins/KOC era (2022/23), primarily via D.P.I/DEF-HOLD calls
I expect Minnesota to recapture that advantage w' Cousins back at QB
The Week 1 match-up between these teams was one of the most egregiously officiated contests of 2026. This isnt sour grapes because I had the Vikngs that day, just telling it as I see it
To put in perspective, 42% of Vikings beneficial AUTO 1st downs via penalty in 2026 were awarded in that single game by Shawn Hochuli's crew, particularly on 3rd DOWN plays & it played a part in the final outcome
This is a full-circle moment. Cousins' time as the Vikings QB ended at Lambeau Field in 2023 after suffering a major injury
He returns as the savior w' Minnesota at the same venue in 2026
We'll see a rejuvenated Vikings offense & the Packers offense that will stretch the field w' a vertical attack
The WR talent in this game is off-the-charts & the total is a manageable number at 42
I like the Packers/Vikings OVER the total of 42 pts
Cousins' return dosent change the fact the @Vikings DEFENSE was on the field for 42 mins & 79 plays on MNF
That could be a factor vs this Packers offense on Sunday, so i lean to GB -3pts in this match-up
I like teams in their final game before going into a bye week, which is Green Bay
Should be a great game in an ultra-competitive NFC North division & higher scoring than oddsmakers are suggesting
#Skol #GoPackGo
Packers-Vikings first injury report. Packers held a jog-through today.
Skyy Moore designated to return from IR.
Zaire Franklin still a DNP.
Trey Smack limited with a right calf injury.
Javon Bullard a DNP.
#Packers RB Josh Jacobs, who will have surgery later this week on his broken ring finger, could return as quickly as 2-3 weeks, sources say. Green Bay will decide Saturday if IR is necessary but it’s not guaranteed.
Jacobs is out vs the #Vikings before the bye. After that, he’s got a shot.
Watching the #vikings defense against the bills...if the #packers were considering K4/K5 protection before this game, I suspect they are reconsidering. Cannot block these OLBs with backfield players.
