As an Irishman, my respect for the Welsh is immense. Sure the rivalry is there after the IRFU sacked Gatland, but I’ve never discounted the Welsh. They’ve shown their talent for rugby time and again, and on their day, they are outstanding. I mean they ran us close in 2009, only for Jones failing to slot that penalty. Also, that team try scored by Justin Tipuric against England; I enjoyed the hell out of that play. Basic team rugby at its finest. And who could forget when Wales humiliated England at their own World Cup? Now that was hilarious. Love the Welsh. A great bunch of lads.
I love the Irish and especially their rugby team. The only thing I dislike is the Irish media. Saying that I will always cheer for Ireland against anyone other than Wales and Scotland
Ah man, the 2011-2019 teams brought me up. Warburton, North, Foxy, Phillips, halfpenny, G. Jenkins, AWJ, Falatau, Tipuric, Liam Williams all absolutely world class players. I fear that was a once in a generation team.
Mid 2000s team was just as good in terms of star players. We've had two top class generations back to back, in large part because of social policies and investments being spent to effectively maximise the cream of the crop (at the cost of the grassroots). We'll probably never see another generation of talent like it. Now, our best players like LRZ are coming through the English system. Ryan Jones, Martyn Williams, Stephen Jones, Henson, Shane, Peel, Gethin, Adam Jones were all top players. A couple of others like Howley, Neil Jenkins, Mark Taylor, Bateman, Scott Gibbs, Scott Quinnell, Dafydd James etc were Lions but never the supporting players to win anything. We'll always produce a few top players but the days of having a solid squad is gone. Bringing in non-Welsh players just destroys the very meaning of nationally representative rugby.
I'm an Italian fan but this literaly gave me goosebumps. This is why we love Wales. This red dragon in the chest, this bravery, this passion...At some point we just have to thank them for all the feelings they share. Even if this year will probably be rough for them, I hope they will quickly regain competitivity. Good luck to all Wales fans and thanks Andrew for this amazing piece of art 🐉❤
For some reason ever since I was a kid I've been supporting Wales like my own French national team. I think that the Dragon flag and the red jersey attracted me as a boy and left an long-lasting impression of greatness in my mental imagery. Great video.
Amazing! Brought a tear to my eye mate - I've been to so many matches and am filled, as always, with nervous anticipation of what the next few weeks hold. Cymru am byth!
Fantasticly done video, Makes that Dragon burn even brighter in my chest thats for sure. Cymru Am Byth! Nervous for the Ireland game, but I expect us to man up and not show ourselves up. As the media keep claiming we'll do.
great vid Andrew. good luck all this weekend. backing blue myself- good luck to everyone supporting their nations. let us not forget how different last year was. the eerie stadiums and the insecurity in our lives. the 6N has always been about more than just rugby, its about hope, rivalry and respect. the best sporting tournament in the world and good luck everyone. let our boys not leave anything out there on the park and we will be giving it all in the stadia, pubs and living rooms.
Hello Andy, i know exactly why the WELSH TEAM has nice results from the beginning of the story of rugby. This HUGE ADVANTAGE is that, the players (and the public) are wearing a "RED JERSEY". This nice COLOR who take the LIGHT as many qualities of FIGHT who are excellent for the rugby, like MOTIVATION, AGRESSIVENESS and CONFIDENCE. The proof is that the same players, are different in their clubs, in wearing others COLORS. I m sur that if SCOTLAND team should wear this COLOR and WALES the MARIN BLUE, the results of this sport, aught to be COMPLETELY UNLIKE ... Bruno from FRANCE Scouting for successful ideas who is trying to change the DARK BLUE JERSEY of the FRENCH TEAMS in all sports
This vid has the best plays from Gerald Davies' side step to the Foxy "fend off". Most of all it captures the collective roar 70 000 Welsh fans in full voice the roar of the Dragon!
Wales just going to play the backs against Ireland and give the forwards a rest, then? Seems fair. Although I'd have thought halfway would be a better vantage point for watching Biggar slot those kicks.
Is there a conversation for Wales changing the symbol on their chests to the dragon? Tradition would say not to change the feathers, but on the other hand, it’s a dragon. Genuinely interested to hear what the Welsh folks think.
What has Wales contributed to the world not a lot it seems but they are great miners and sing well!!! I went to America and asked what do you know about Scotland they said bagpipes, golf, and Scotch whisky oh and Nessie, England what you know beer drinking, Essex girls, and David Beckham, Ireland nice songs, nice girls and Wales no idea!!!! Hopefully Wales can get higher up in the global world blogs England and Scotland it seems are most well known globally and from an English perspective it was England and Scotland that have contributed the most they even invented rugby and football but let's give the Welsh a hand for the best singers and miners and Tom Jones is wonderful. This is all in jest hope you beat those Scots boys today 👍
I've a feeling Wales is going to get either flukey again or get demolished by nearly all the teams. Their U20s weren't promising either last night against Ireland, 53-5
Just because wales got some help with a few dodgy decisions and a few red cards last year doesn’t mean they should be written off for this years six nations, come on wales🌼

@@rhysjones3867 Same. Us Celts need to stick together.
@@richardphilpott1013 I completely agree. That's why I'm disappointed in the Irish media. Doesn't change my opinion of the Irish team though
Oorah. A diolch yn fawr
@@rhysjones3867 what is the point of contention about Irish media?
I’m a Scottish man but the respect I have for my Welsh brothers is unmatched

Whose foxy
@@CD-603 Jonathan Davies
Very true.
2019 was your best ever chance to win a world cup. It's just a shame that you guys had a few more key injuries than the other contenders.
@@filthymutt6029 2011 was our best chance imo

I will NEVER tire of that clip of Justin Tipuric dummying Mike Brown.
Huge respect for Welsh rugby from Scottish rugby fan. Definitely can't write them off.
Goosebumps. I just love my country.
Proud to be Welsh 🏴.. Looking forward to the Six Nations
Love Welsh Rugby !

Merci, et allez Les Bleus!

What a great video. Cannot await the beginning of the 6 nations. Greetings from Germany
Respect for the Welsh rugby. Tiny nation, huge heart.

EXCELLENT!! I swear...Wales produce some of the greatest passers of the rugby ball ever....across generations and all positions!!
love welsh rugby style! fan from south korea!
Respect for wales team from france
Can never write them off. Especially at a full home stadium
No matter how much I hate the Welsh as a team (as an England supporter), I can't help but admire the their unique, sparky way of playing rugby.
Fantasticly done video, Makes that Dragon burn even brighter in my chest thats for sure. Cymru Am Byth! Nervous for the Ireland game, but I expect us to man up and not show ourselves up. As the media keep claiming we'll do.
Big respect to Welsh Rugby 🐉 from Samoa 🌺

@@rhysjones3867 so did you enjoy getting your pants pulled down yesterday??
Epic!!
I'm not crying I swear...

Come on wales 🏴 win the six nations
Get into the Groove.
Classy edit Andrew! Da iawn
I'm only 1/3 Welsh, but I'm passionate about it.
Complete banter side.

Didn’t age well
Is rugby the national sport in Wales ?
it‘s not even a question
What’s the background song?

@@RustyyRhyss awesome, thanks!
Welsh rugby team has its ups and downs but the regional rugby is so poor . The under 20s last night was a sham ….
Just because wales got some help with a few dodgy decisions and a few red cards last year doesn’t mean they should be written off for this years six nations, come on wales🌼
I'm whelsh
Da ni yea o hyd
Da ni yma o hyd
Your videos really are excellent.
Dda iawn, y diolch yn fawr.
1 win out of 5 in the six nations and a home defeat to italy - that is wales rugby in 2022!
Shhhhhhhhh
Song?
Hallo ich bin der Deniz
The boys should of watched this before the shower of shit out in ireland today
wales are rebuilding for the next couple of years. grass roots in a mess
still a mess, no sign of rebuilding..
Where’s the English video
Probably more appropriate for an English person to make that
@@AndrewDavidForde Highlights of England v Wales from last year would do the trick :)
And then today happened lol
Wales lost, do you think that was the point of the video?
Unfortunately, Andrew, today's performance was way, way off the mark! I'm genuinely worried about the current state of Welsh rugby.
Didn't age too well! Bent over and botty burst by the Big Bad Boys from over the sea..............
This is Welsh Rugby? Fukt
