O FLOWER OF SCOTLAND (Match Day Version)

O flower of Scotland
When will we see your like again
That fought and died for
Your wee bit hill and glen
And stood against him
Proud Edward's army
And sent him homeward
Tae think again

Those days are passed now
And in the past they must remain
But we can still rise now
And be the nation again
That stood against him
Proud Edward's army
And sent him homeward
Tae think again


WALES

MAE HEN WLAD FY NHADAU (Match Version)

Mae hen wlad fy nhadau yn annwyl i mi,
Gwlad beirdd a chantorion, enwogion o fri;
Ei gwrol ryfelwyr, gwladgarwyr tra mad,
Dros ryddid collasant eu gwaed

Gwlad, gwlad,
pleidiol wyf i'm gwlad.
Tra môr yn fur i'r bur hoff bau,
O bydded i'r hen iaith barhau.

Gwlad, gwlad,
pleidiol wyf i'm gwlad.
Tra môr yn fur i'r bur hoff bau,
O bydded i'r hen iaith barhau.

NO MORE SIMPLICITY WALES!

It’s 10 years since Warren Gatland took over as Head Coach of the Wales team. Wales had not been doing very well for some time! They had been knocked out of the Rugby World Cup by Fiji.


As EDDIE BUTLER brought out in Scrum V this week –
“ Gatland imposed CLARITY and SIMPLICITY”

He had a new message “ BE DIRECT AND KEEP IT SIMPLE” ....
....to work on fitness, improve the defence but above all “KEEP IT SIMPLE!”

This strategy transformed the Wales side bringing success-
3 Six Nations titles including 2 Grand Slams.


When Gatland took over it was the OSPREYS that were the dominant force in club rugby. In Wales’ first game under Gatland he picked no less than 14 Ospreys to face England and won!

But since those early years Rugby has changed. We are seeing a more sophisticated game ... “Now in the Red of Wales –SIMPLE IS STOPPABLE!”

“NOW WE NEED INTRICATE, INTERWEAVING RUGBY, based on a game of passing and supporting all on a solid platform!”


This time Gatland has chosen THE SCARLETS as a REGIONAL TEMPLATE for WALES! The Scarlets have been on fire this last couple of years and are the talk of the Continent!

Under Head Coach Wayne Pivac, The Scarlets have adopted that new style of rugby! The intricate, layered, interweaving rugby, to great effect!


GATLAND HAS CHOSEN NO LESS THAN 12 SCARLETS FOR TODAY’S GAME v SCOTLAND – 10 in the starting line-up and 2 on the bench.


NO KEEPING IT SIMPLE TODAY WALES..... BE COMPLEX .... BE DAZZLING .... BE BRILLIANT! <3 <3 <3
