While there are so many false dawns in both rugby codes, a new club in Birmingham sounds exciting at least. But I know Midlands Hurricanes were looking at getting in this stadium before they gave up with a long-term deal at Bournville RFC. https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2026/feb/26/birmingham-city-owners-explore-rugby-union-buying-prem-franchise #rugby #rugbyunion #RugbyLeague

The second-level of European nations has seen false promise this year - Belgium after their World Cup repechage appearance, Germany in one tournament after beating Romania, and now Netherlands, after losing a chance at the repechage, losing to Switzerland. And despite losing to Germany and being destroyed by Portugal, Romania still made it again in the semi-finals. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BKGYjbMWXOk #rugby #rugbyunion

I think I'm going to have a look at the odds, at local bookie, to see what the odds on Wales winning the six nations. Their luck has got to change at some time. #sixnations #rugby #rugbyunion #wales
