Blue Warriors?

Didn't see that one coming did we. Today Cardiff shocked us all with their sudden transformation to pro-provincialists. Having held the process of reform to the Welsh game last season more or less at ransom, the realities of the stand alone status they fought so hard for, appear to have hit home.

| When David Moffett first came
to Wales he wanted four provinces. One of those "idealisms" was a Glamorgan outfit encompassing Bridgend, Cardiff and Pontypridd.
Obviously only two of those bought into the Aussies plan, to form the Celtic Warriors, but now things appear to have a taken a twist back to
the original WRU plan.
Today Cardiff admitted staging exploratory talks with Leighton Samuel and the WRU, at the possibility of joining forces with the Warriors for next season. The Blues increased financial woes caused by the burden of standing alone, appear to have ended Peter Thomas's interest in the region. Well I think of something worthwhile to write, why not tell us what you think on the message board or if you feel the need to I am always open to publishing articles, email them to me lestyn@reddragonrugby.co.uk |
