@Aledtata99 @LeeJarvis10 It's not the job of the WRU. They are not employed by them. They are employed by the local authority. Its not the place of the wru to inform them. Let's wait and see what the plan is before jumping on the bandwagon.

@garethlewis1959 @BrendanOMalley3 @LeeJarvis10 Agreed 1000%

@bombersalegend @ronan_mcgurk @CaerphillyCBC What a bunch of jokers. Torfaen is nowhere near the same cost as Caerphilly

@panthomas @caerau10 @Stephen13167685 @WelshRugbyUnion @Cardiff_Rugby @Harlequins @gloucesterrugby I'm pretty sure it's available in the public domain, and I'm confident the "data" has been realised to clubs, via club secretaries.

@panthomas @caerau10 @Stephen13167685 @WelshRugbyUnion @Cardiff_Rugby @Harlequins @gloucesterrugby I appreciate it wasn't ideal for some teams/clubs but the data now shows a higher retention rate into and out of youth rugby. Would there have ever been a "good time"

[Grass Roots_rugby @RugbyGrass]

@Stephen13167685 @panthomas @WelshRugbyUnion @Cardiff_Rugby @Harlequins @gloucesterrugby The same can be said for 17 year old playing against nearly 19 years old can't it?

@TreorchyRFCu18s @panthomas @WelshRugbyUnion @Cardiff_Rugby @Harlequins @gloucesterrugby Huh.... we were one of only 2 nations in the world to use the u19s system. Everyone else is u18s

@chewy1985 @WelshRugbyUnion @ManUtd Oh dear.... someone hasn't a clue. Bless you.

@RugbyPhilBB Blaenau Gwent have approx 3 schools to choose from.... Neath have 3, maybe 4? Islwyn the same. Those teams will never compete

[Grass Roots_rugby @RugbyGrass]

@RugbyPhilBB Unsure, but it is about the number of schools teams are allowed to pick players from. The Cardiff team was able to choose from schools in Cardiff and the Vale of Glamorgan. They created 3 teams that Competed in the group stages. They stacked the central team with the best players

[Grass Roots_rugby @RugbyGrass]

@Disco_Stooo_ @TheVietGwent @AllWalesSport I'm referring to the smaller teams with not many schools to chose from

[Grass Roots_rugby @RugbyGrass]

@RugbyPhilBB What im referring to is areas such as Neath or Blaenau Gwent, which have very few schools to players from. Cardiff and the vale for example, has over 20, then to compound matters they make a super team.

@Bdsru15s @PontyPSRU @dewar_shield @RygbiCaerdydd Congratulations to Ponty schools. Did all the damage in the first half. The sooner they reorganise the format of the competition the better
