About this listen

This week on The Attacking Scrum, Ged is joined by top Welsh rugby writer Seimon Williams to break down the end of the WRU’s consultation period and the headline decision that one of Wales’s professional regions will be cut. Is it really a shootout between the Scarlets and the Ospreys, or is there more going on behind the scenes? Ged and Seimon dig into what the decision means for the regional game, the national team, and the long-term sustainability of Welsh rugby. They also explore the development pathway crisis: will a centralised national academy nurture elite talent and bridge the gap between school, semi-pro, and regional rugby? With funding pressures mounting and squads thinning, can the WRU find a model that actually develops players rather than losing them abroad? From the future of West Wales rugby to the wider vision for player development in Wales, this episode asks whether cutting a region will really fix anything — or just make the challenges even greater.
