Daunting times ahead. The uncertainty, lack of clarity and ambiguous decisions will put the sport under incredible strain.

It will be interesting to see what Rishi intends to offer, if anything.

Wales will play their rearranged Six Nations match against Scotland in October in Llanelli and will welcome Georgia there the following month. The Welsh Rugby Union has not given up hope of some fans being allowed in.

There is no chance of this, I feel.
Apart from on face masks, where the Welsh government was behind England considerably, on most measures they were slightly more cautious- the "back to the office" directive has never been in operation here - the advice has always been "stay at home to work if you can" from 23rd March.
LLanelli is being talked of as likely to be having Wales' first "town" lockdown, as of today, and Swansea has had multiple schools affected already, and 12 cases at the Uni alone in a single day. The whole of the M4 strip to Llanelli is in already in local lockdown or on the watch list, and some pubs have been shut in Llanelli due to outbreaks traced to them, and the government is recommending that people, if they are going out to places such as the pub, stay local. There is more chance of fans in England, frankly.
