If P++sland cannot take the heat then get out of the kitchen.
This is a man picked because he played 1 good game at RWC 2011 in the 1/4 final.
That is it……that is all he has ever done.
Yet against all common sense and the very evidence b 4 our eyes he simply is not up to the task.
P++land has failed so… so… many times for Wales…this blog’s posts mocked his missed kick in Apr 2014 and in the Summer 2012 review slated him.
You cannot have your cake and eat it and if Gatland is so bloody minded and utterly stubborn to acknowledge this then quite frankly I don’t blame the fans for booing a bloke who blew Wales’ best chance since 1282AD of beating an Aus team in Aus.
In 2012 P++sland screwed up twice in 7 days and we still have Gatland bringing back time after time.
Would Wales have won the 2013 6N with P++sland instead of Biggar?
No categorically no….P++sland’s record is there for all to see. Hell he almost blew the Triple Crown game in 2012 at Twickenham by getting yellow carded and conceding 3 points asap as the 2nd half began.
He’s useless. Welsh rugby’s Neil Kinnock, Michael Foot or Ed Milibland.
He is the weakest link and every Welsh supporter I know personally NEVER want to see him in a Welsh shirt ever again.
Personally the homophobic comments against Nigel Owens last week are far more unpleasanr and nasty than disgruntled Welsh fans booing Gatland’s ‘Mr Bean’
]]>He refused to resign and was sacked in the hotel car park b 4 breakfast.
Classic Brunch of the Long Knives!
His record was one of the worst as Wales coach ever… and over the last 25 years that takes some beating I can tell you.
He was just awful. He kept picking Stephen Jones in the 2007 6N when it was plain for all to see that James Hook was streets ahead of Jones but of course Jones was Gareth’s own Scarlet No10 so that was that.
A few weeks later the same players that Jenkins lost so often with recorded their 1st win at Twickenham since 1988 which led to the 2008 Grand Slam. So the facts speak for themselves.
Thank you Fiji!!!
RIP Gareth ‘the people’s choice as coach’ coz he you were really s++t.
]]>The point is that 07 does spring to my mind when I (and many others) see a Wales v Fiji fixture, and Wales players will probably remember it as well. But that is to Wales’ benefit. They won’t play open, free-for-all rugby as it plays straight into the Fijians hands, and you can bet that they’ll be fired up to douse any glimmers of hope that the Islanders may have early on.
]]>We’ve not gone for a development/fringe XV.
It’s not on a Friday night.
We’re suck of being rubbish in the AIs.
Anything less than winning by 10 won’t be good enough.
]]>’11 isn’t mentioned as it was order restored
Its for the same reason that we all remember Wales losing to Western Samoa at home back in 1991!
Expect Wales to win at a canter. Looking forward to watching Nadolo and Goneva in the centres though
]]>This report is very 07-centric, while completely ignoring the 66-0 battering Wales handed to Fiji at the 2011 WC.
Why would anybody in Welsh rugby be casting a thought back to 07? It was a different team, under a different set of coaches and a result that I would say was exorcised at the 2011 WC.
Expecting, as the report suggests, a comfortable victory for Wales.
