Dewi Lake and Jac Morgan in Welsh white rugby shirts
#RoadToWRUin all I keep thinking of is what message this sends to young people in Wales that are into rugby.potential players, coaches, support staff, media etc. What does this say to them?
We’ve given up on #RoadToWRUin. There’s just too much bad news to keep up with. Gloucester have confirmed the signing of Jac Morgan from the Ospreys.
😔
#RoadToWRUin Day 25:
The WRU continue to shape the narrative that cutting clubs is the only game in town. Sadly ChumV have fallen for it yet again.
#RoadToWRUin Day 24:
The WRU: “WE HAVE A STRICT RULE! ALL MUST OBEY!”
Also, The WRU: “If you don’t like THE RULE then, er, here’s a different one.”
#MakingitUpAsTheyGoAlong
#RoadToWRUin day 23:
We’re pleased to report that the WRU’s plans to destroy Welsh rugby are going really well. Every day there’s a story about another star player leaving for a more secure future outside Wales. Round of applause for the WRU. 👏👏👏
#RoadToWRUin Day 22:
Imagine being in a league where the officiating is so bad that it makes a difference to the result of a game you could have drawn rather than lost.
Then all you get is a half-arsed apology. Thanks, WRU.
#RoadToWRUin Day 21:
Remember when the WRU said they definitely weren’t going to hire a “rugby person” to assist Dave Reddin?
Turns out they were lying.
Who’d have guessed it?
Well done to Ben James for sticking to your guns.
#RoadToWRUin Day 20:
The WRU’s favourite cheerleader, like the apocryphal soldier lost in the jungle, still fighting, still serving the old masters who would always rely on his obedience to their cause. Helping the WRU to get away with it for years.
#RoadToWRUin Day 19:
With all the bickering and bullshit, we should acknowledge the toll all this uncertainty is taking on the players whose livelihoods are under threat.
The WRU don’t seem to care.
A bit of honesty and transparency isn’t too much to ask, is it?
#RoadToWRUin Day 18:
The Worst Run Union might be strapped for cash but it seems they can still afford to create swanky new desk jobs while players face redundancy.
So for the princely sum of £150k, you can be Dave Reddin’s Bitch
#RoadToWRUin Day 17:
Once again proving that they’re making this up as they go along, the WRU admit that if they cut one of the four pro teams, they’ll have to replace it with, er, “something.”
How about a semi-pro team? What could possibly go wrong?
#RoadToWRUin Day 15:
Sticking with the pantomime theme (this is the WRU, after all), we learn that his reign so far has been so much fun that WRU chair Richard Collier-Keywood wants to carry on doing the brilliant job he’s been doing for the past 2 years. In spite of “drastic change” being needed
#RoadToWRUin Day 14:
Back to Welsh rugby's favourite pantomime villain, Dave Reddin. Another freestyle car crash of an interview - pitchside just before Wales' record loss to SA on Saturday - where Dave seemed to realise in real time that the WRU have to provide 4 teams to compete in the URC.
#RoadToWRUin Day 13:
On a great day to bury more bad news under the massive existing pile of bad news, the WRU AGM was held yesterday. Hundreds of WRU members (club reps from all over Wales) had a chance to use their power.
Did they take that chance?
Did they fuck.
#RoadToWRUin Day 12:
The WRU are skint. This is clearly from the Annual Report which they sent out on Friday night, 19 days later than they’re supposed to under their own governance rules.
Executive pay went up 40% in the last reporting period.

#RoadToWRUin Day 11:
The money-spinning 4th Autumn international means that Welsh clubs are missing dozens of players. They’re forced to make emergency loan signings on a full weekend of league fixtures.
It’s all about the WRU.
#RoadToWRUin Day 10:
Today is apparently the deadline for bids to be submitted to buy Cardiff Rugby from the WRU.
This came as news to a lot of us.
The WRU have made a habit of issuing threats and deadlines without any rationale or proper notice.
#RoadToWRUin Day 9:
The WRU have always been like Emperor Nero - fiddling away while everything around them is on fire. Their constant dithering over the future has led to massive and damaging uncertainty across the game. For example:
#RoadToWRUin Day 8:
Not content with demanding UNLIMITED POWER over pro rugby in Wales, the Stalinist WRU politburo want to own your local semi-pro SRC club as well. Their record in this area isn’t great, so let’s hope this never comes to pass either.
#RoadToWRUin Day 7:
The unedifying spectacle of the WRU advertising tickets for a game between two teams, one of which it is actively seeking to destroy.
#RuckTheWRU
#RoadToWRUin Day 6
However serious and potentially terminal the current problems plaguing Welsh rugby are, surely they’re not so terrible that the answer is “Clive Woodward”
#LordBald #LeTache #Stature #StoutYeomen
#ROADTOWRUIN DAY 5
The Autumn International series is over. Except in Wales, where the national side will face South Africa next weekend without 13 of their squad members who play outside Wales. Thanks for that triple whammy, WRU 🤯
#ROADTOWRUIN DAY THREE
In which we learn that the WRU created a 50-slide PowerPoint presentation which was so monumentally shite that it stopped a meeting after 10 minutes
#ROADTOWRUIN DAY TWO
The WRU have released an app which seems to encourage fans to shine torches in the eyes of the NZ players on Saturday. I mean, it COULD work.
#ROADTOWRUIN DAY ONE
And it's a Merry Fucking Christmas to rugby fans across Wales from long-faced hatchet man Dave "Otis" Reddin as he warns us "everything is going to be fucked by Christmas"
Cheers Dave.
