www.sportinglife.com/rugbyleague ... arris.html As a Scotsman I'm gutted Scotland didn't make it but well done Wales. The game seems too be making good ground. I wonder if they have any tips for Scotland on how to grow the game up there. Seems people have no interest unless the ball is round.

can anyone please help ?

i'm trying to make contact with the two welsh fans - the only two proudly wearing the red shirts who were at the france v wales game in Albi
we had a drink pre game and met up after - unfortunately I lost the big fellas email address - he was an ugly brute but intelligent enough to support both Saints & Spurs (like myself)

well done to the welsh lads - the players wore their shirts with pride and Lee Briers couldn't contain his exitement and he didn't even play ! Well done to Iestyn who did his coaching career no harm at all

Have you tried the Crusaders forum sanjunien?

I've tried leaving a message on the 'International' forum,'South Wales Scorpions' forum cos' they live in that area and follow the team as well as the mighty 'Saints' forum cos' one of them is a massive Saints fan

they were great lads and had the privelege to have pint or two before the game in Albi in the Sports Bar next to the ground along with Neale Wyatt,the ex Crusaders (now Pia) player.We met up after the game and chatted to them with the players & coaching staffs (except Warren Jowitt in my case - read my thoughts on him in previous forums) I noted one of the email addresses but managed to lose it somewhere or other. He was a typical Rhondda valley lad - proud welshman & rugby daft - looking forward to seeing the ugly brute again for the Saints game at Perpignan in 2011

put the name into facebook: problem solved
