In what way shape or form does that video suggest that "Rugby still king in Wales"? The very fact that the question was asked whether they would prefer to play for their national rugby side or a FOREIGN FOOTBALL TEAM is staggering in itself. It should go without question. It says that the participation numbers for football are very favourable compared to the rugby and there is a concerning drop of in rugby participation at 16+.

Rugby or Football Wales are doing pretty well in both as present. Can't complain

Dream on! how many world cups?

Daft using Brynteg Comprehensive as part of this report, the school is 100% rugby, always has been, always will be. Everyone plays rugby in Brynteg end of story, the parents are regularly asked for money to contribute to the rugby teams. It's not a bad thing at all, but surely they should of used a more balanced school like Porthcawl who plays both?
