@ScarletPembs Great for him to get some serious game time to lay his marker down. Tricky appearances leading up to this - but looks the real deal after that performance

[Louis Halton Davies @LooeyHD]

@MattHardyJourno @CityAM Whoops - didn’t realise the image was a link. All in the article 🤦‍♂️

[Louis Halton Davies @LooeyHD]

@MattHardyJourno @CityAM Has this been renewed already? I know it’s up for renewal this year if not. Think they got £10m for it last time around. Considering Twickenham sponsorship went for £100m hopefully this will be a big cash injection

@UkWayneb @CraigHarper0105 Crazy take - guess you missed all the cover tackles?

[Louis Halton Davies @LooeyHD]

@HughEdw54983916 @ScarletPembs I wondered this too. Why pull him off at all last week if they were going to bench him tonight. But then also thought the stakes were pretty high for a call like that

[Louis Halton Davies @LooeyHD]

@SteffanDavies95 @BBCScrumV @BBCSportWales Ahh yeah that’s fair enough, Page not even on the bench 😳 Joe Roberts hasn’t had much rugby while he’s been in the wales squad though which is probably why. Tbf I do think Peel has been rotating the team pretty well. Lots of really good youngsters coming through and getting time

[Louis Halton Davies @LooeyHD]

@SteffanDavies95 @BBCScrumV @BBCSportWales Pretty much the same squad, no? Only 3 changes to the starting 15, 1 of which was in last week’s match day 23. Would like to see more of the Macs Page & Eddie James combo though - very exciting partnership

[Louis Halton Davies @LooeyHD]

@BigRhys21 Fully empathise as a scarlets fan. I know the Cardiff supporters trust are very against this move for that exact same reason - benefitting a Welsh region at the expense of another. I’d hate to see the scarlets go but was at least expecting a fair process

[Louis Halton Davies @LooeyHD]

@ScarletPembs 👏👏👏

[Louis Halton Davies @LooeyHD]

@CardiffJim @WalesRugby Definitely don’t share your views here. Not sure how much more anyone could expect with 14 players unavailable due to the scheduling. It’s not the coaches or the players faults, it’s the WRUs shortsightedness

[Louis Halton Davies @LooeyHD]

@WalesRugby Have to admit - very impressed with Steve Tandy and his attitude. He won’t blame the fixture and will take accountability, but as fans we know the score

[Louis Halton Davies @LooeyHD]

@WalesRugby If they can’t get enough players, maybe some of the opposition team can turn their tops inside out and lend them a few each game…

[Louis Halton Davies @LooeyHD]

@WalesRugby Can’t fault the players. Hope the @WelshRugbyUnion are happy and the revenue was worth the:

1) drop in player confidence
2) further damage Welsh rugby’s reputation
3) chances of the regions this weekend
4) negative impact on supporters
5) next years potential attendance

[Louis Halton Davies @LooeyHD]

@WalesRugby Have a great deal of respect for this stance. The vultures are circling and the Cardiff supporters trust chose solidarity with the other regions

[Louis Halton Davies @LooeyHD]

@srarachl They were showing both in the gate in Llanelli tbf

[Louis Halton Davies @LooeyHD]

@SquidgeRugby Edit: I take it back, it was actually RCK who said that about the licenses

[Louis Halton Davies @LooeyHD]

@SquidgeRugby Im going to hold off on judgement until we start seeing what happens. But acknowledging that Welsh rugby is full of local tribalism one week and then saying the scarlets could bid for the east wales licence another definitely got my eyebrows raised.

[Louis Halton Davies @LooeyHD]

@WalesRugby Scarlets are away on their South African tour aren’t they? Article says they’re home. Had me panicking for a minute then

[Louis Halton Davies @LooeyHD]

@dai_bowkett @g_r_owen @BBCScrumV @URCOfficial Don’t like to complain about refs - and the best team won - but poor reffing made the game dangerous. 2 high tackles were missed, a player was rolled out of the ruck vertically. Also the only time they got pinged for offside was to disallow our only try.

[Louis Halton Davies @LooeyHD]

@WalesRugby To be fair to the Scarlets, “star studded” back line is a bit of a stretch. “Exciting” would be more appropriate. Take Gareth Davies out of the equation and they have an average 9 caps each
