As previously mentioned today was the day of the big game between the Ospreys (Neath/Swansea/Bridgend etc) V The Scarlets (Llanelli based)
Firstly we were very lucky to receive free passes from The other Joneses (Ian, llinos, Osian, Llion and Gwennan) I an and Llinos were away at a wedding and the Grandparents Dianne and Matthew who have been really good to me and are the parents of my good friend Karen. Cody and I collected the tickets from Matthew and Diannes and who were there?? the Kids Cody and Luke are good mates with the boys.
Cody felt it necessary to have a ride on the sheep as he had when he was 18 months.
As we got home we had a wonderful lunch/dinner prepared by Anna and chef Luke New Zealand Lamb!!! Interestingly half the price of the welsh equivalent.
Cody, Luke and I then left for the Liberty stadium. The traffic was really busy but we timed it perfectly with 5 minutes to spare before kick off. It was freezing and raining but we were high up in the stand and rugged up!!!
On display were players such as Welsh internationals Priestland, Webb, Lee, Beck, Lydiate, Tipuric, Biggar, Ball, Shingler, AW Jones. Liam Williams, Eli Walker.
NZERS Hadleigh Parks (EX Auckland) Regan King(Ex Waikato) James King(Ex North Harbr I think)
Scottish international Barclay.
So there was plenty of talent. As the Joneses had given us tickets we went for the Ospreys.
It was a stop start affair with the Ospreys taking a solid 17-6 lead. They played by far the most attractive Rugby. The scarlets kicking away much possession. Kerry Connolly you would have been frustrated with the reffing!! It is a worldwide story.
Players entering the fray with Lukie.
Liberty Stadium
Union or League???
Try ospreys?? it took the ref and tmo 5 minutes to decide. No Try
The lineout was effective why cant wales win their own lineouts??
Libert home of the Swans and the Ospreys.
We got home at 8PM and watched deathly hallows part 1.
Night night.
