Adrian Hadley, @WalesRugbyL & @WelshRugbyUnion winger said “League is much, much more physical than Union, & that's before anyone starts breaking the rules.” Would @sflamont agree? Come to #Kingsholm on Sun 11 September to decide for yourself #battleofthecodes @gloucesterrugby

To all our friends back in the UK. Enjoy the easing of the lockdown. The Rum Ration doors are still closed but we’re looking forward to the day when guests return to the Somme Battlefields.

The 8 Men In A Van challenge is back on! In July, a team will run non-stop around the Welsh coastline - some 1400km. Then the team will continue 285km along the length of the Welsh-English border, completing the loop. Find out more at virginmoneygiving.com/fund/r4hwelshc… @Rugbyforheroes
