Apologies for last night's communication blackout WiFi issues at the Barry branch of CF10 Towers.

My only comment from last night's match:
"Losing run over, phew"

We look forward now to extending our decade long wining run over the Dragons 🔵⚫️

CF10 TRUST

The romantics amongst us perhaps like to think that Cardiff heroes like Bleddyn Williams, Gwyn Nicholls and Percy Bush have never really left the Arms Park.

It's game day! Now, whilst I share the frustrations of many about the late kick offs, let's make the most of it!

Think of it as an opportunity to visit some of the many wonderful community clubs in our pathway playing today before going to cheer on our Blue and Blacks! 🔵⚫️

Good luck to the Blue and Blacks to take on Connacht tomorrow evening!

Cardiff Rugby Life @cardiffrugbylife.bsky.social · 2d

Here’s the Cardiff side to face Connacht;

- Azza & Donnell into the pack
- Emanuel’s first league start
- Winnett back at 15 with Beetham on the wing
- Possible club debut for Nott
- Possible pro rugby debut for Darwin-Lewis

Some re-jigging but still plenty of quality 🔵⚫️

Might be and idea to promote the CR website link as opposed to encouraging people over to Elon's gaff.

We definitely do not endorse any of Tony's conspiracy theories 😉

URC dropped their stats and our own Hattrick Hero, Tom Bowen was top points scorer with 15 and joint top try scorer for the league as a whole so far!

Big shout out to Big Al and Sheedy toping the league for Carries and Try assists (respectively) 🔵⚫️

Teddy Williams has carried his 2024/25 form into the new season, been huge across these first two weeks.

Went hard at Munster's maul on Saturday night in an area actually becoming a bit of a strength for Cardiff now after many years of trouble.

Good morning from CF10 Towers (Ty Glass outpost). After a crucial 2 points out in Munster, it's Connacht week!

Here's to get the CAP posts back up and showing the Guys from Galway that noone beats the Blue and Black 6 times in a row!

Legend has it during his stint as Bishop of Llandaf he came up with idea of 4 three quarters, and hoops.

He was firmly of the opinion the North Terrace was in fact template for the Garden of Eden too.

Good old Bill Mogs eh!

10 days until the first 25/26 game at CAP.

Things which are possible over the next 10 days:

Learn to play the recorder
Buy a tocyn for the game
Take a daily coffee in your fave coffeehouse
Complete Gwlad's rugby survey ... and the WRUs

cf10rugbytrust.bsky.social @cf10rugbytrust.bsky.social · 25d

Well, quite.

cf10rugbytrust.bsky.social @cf10rugbytrust.bsky.social · 25d

A few weeks from the first game of the season and we will be there but Saturday nights are really not ideal.

Three home games on the bounce with a 1945 kick off. If we were conspiracy theorists we may suggest this was done to make the club unattractive and almost an afterthought.

Still, #packCAP

Monday.

Stormy. Outlook is changeable and not promising.

The weather and Welsh rugby in a game of one upmanship.

At least the weather has a pattern.

Nice to finally get a second try after so many missed opportunities in the first half.
Ref isn't helping mind and nor is Sheedy's kicking.

Clubs, players, and supporters have brought their passion to the WRU consultation.
Dave Reddin's response:
"We also fully expect consultation to influence our thinking.
I can confidently say that our thinking is changing in positive ways as we progress."

Maybe it’s the planning for our trip to Paris. This picture is from the last time we went but this time it’ll be just me and Hywel.
