Welsh Rugby Union: £63m record turnover in Grand Slam year

Intresting points are,
The cash cow is home rugby matches at the Millennium Stadium and the union sweats its asset, with seven home games in total last season, even though there were no Autumn internationals because of the Rugby World Cup.

The WRU's report said it allocated £20.1m to the regions, semi-professional clubs and community rugby, a rise of 4% on the year and 35% over the past five years.

Within that £20.1m, Wales' four regions received £6.2m to pay for the release of their international players.

In total, there was a 1% rise in money that went to the regions from the WRU compared with the previous year.

"the big danger is if there's more and more of a push to France, and what it does for regional rugby".

So good news for Welsh rugby, but could the WRU do more to support the regions?

I wish we could see the pricewaterhousecooper report.
