Scarlets v Bath

This is being promoted as a pre-season friendly. But anyone know if the Rag Doll is up for grabs. Traditional trophy for these two sides, so would be good to see something more than pride being played for, even if it is a piece of sentimental nostalgia that old farts like myself enjoy.

I do hope so...

Lets hope so... Just because the game is professional, doesn't mean traditions like this have to disappear.

Lets not forget, its these traditions that set Rugby out from the rest. And if any of the commercial bods at the clubs think there isn't any mileage in this.. Its the clubs (both) UPS (Unique Selling Point)...

I do hope it is played for, and hope that someone at S4C (or BBC Wales) gets off their ar$es and cover the game, even if only on-line.

I wish the game was on S4C or BBC Wales.

Rugby is the national sport of Wales, it's hugely disappointing that this game isn't being televised.

Rugby used to be the national sport of Wales.
