Who?

Not Billy's brother but the freshly appointed WRU 'writer in residence'

http://www.owensheers.co.uk/

What do we think? Important reflection of the place of rugby in Welsh culture, or a waste of time, money and effort?

Modern Welsh poetry and writing has often reflected the nations love of rugby union. Poetry, Song and Art are a very important part of our culture. I am happy to see this reflected in the WRU.

It would never have happened in JGB Thomas' day. Then journalists could write.

Ha ha ha...! Thomas was a classic. Almost forgot all about him... There are a few modern writers i enjoy too Eddie Butler has his moments as does Gerald Davies' occasional pieces for the times.

I hope they publish his stuff in the Western Mail. A great rugby writer should satisfy you even though you don't agree with his opinions.
