Not sure if I’ve misunderstood talksport, but I’m sure Jamie O’Hara just said Phil Foden is better than Gazza 😳
Difficult to compare generations but better than Gazza? Foden’s quality, but people easily forget and people can get carried away. Radio switched off.
To coach alongside my dad tonight was a real highlight. I’m full of admiration for the service and commitment he’s given, still driving standards, still putting the same energy and emotion and into coaching Rhondda kids year after year 💙 Thnx for the photo

Season finally over! Thanks to my club for the last 21 years, an incredible journey we can be proud of 📈
Thanks to players past & present for their commitment & effort. So many highlights with friends over the years. Our changing room & bus trips will be great memories! 😄👍

Not quite to be tonight - but that’s sport. Just fell on the wrong end of the result but another performance we can take something from.
Thanks for the kind words and show of support recently, and tonights tribute. It’s appreciated, but it’s been a privilege 👍 COTY 💙
Not quite to be tonight but super proud of the boys as always. Thank you to all that came out to support us.
Love these boys, love our club
@YstradRFC
That ends a strange, tough old season!
Come on the Yst! 💙
Nearly 20 years since we first played together in the first team. Pleasure to have played with them, privilege to have coached them. Special day together again today with

Chiefy a true legend!
Honour, dignity and respect - old fashioned values but epitomised by Dale. Welsh Rugby can't afford to lose such a man.
Honoured to call you my friend Dale. Go well butty 👍

@roberts_dano
and the boys on part of their 26miles this morning. Then get the family miles in this afternoon in the sun ☀️
Great to see so many people taking part in 26miles through March with their zero negativity T-shirt’s on.
Congratulations and good luck to my old buddy
@njhackers1985
on overtaking me on the list of appearances tonight! 👏🏻 Great servant to the club. He’s told me he was going to do it for a while and he’s finally done it! 😁

Great crowd for Cardiff vs Ospreys. Invest in grounds like the brewery and move away from Liberty in future?
Oddly looking forward to see how the pros deal with the mud bath! 😄
Chuffed with this final season, couldn’t have picked a better way to bow out 🙏🏻
I’m looking forward to a break but at peace knowing the club is in good hands going forward 👍
Best wishes to all for next season and beyond

Cmon the Yst 💙
Last autumn - change our style / give youngsters a chance!
This autumn - changed style / youngsters given chance.
15 key players missing. Beat SA. Still not happy 🤦🏻♂️ Most negative rugby nation ever! 😴
Massive thanks to those who took time to send msgs to my old man to mark his 60th. He was humbled and very thankful. As a family we’re very grateful 👍🏻
Fair play
@Liamwilliamsko
tough as teak! Represented the area well and hopefully you’ve given the youngsters in our area something to strive towards. 👍
Fair play, gave the
@Cardiff_Rugby
game a go above English Prem tonight and credit where it’s due, good crowd and the boys done well. Hope they go on to have a good season. Friday night rugby is great and nice to have it back on BBC 2👌
Always excitement ahead of the first game of the season but to represent the Rhondda in the Championship division this year is something else. No bigger test today, but this is what we’ve waited for...

Home Alone 2 the best Christmas film!
Top 3 moments for me…
1. Marv taking 4 bricks to the head.
2. The paint cans and steel bar. Ooooh right in the schnoz!
3. Marv getting electrocuted.

Good luck for the season 🤝
Dropping the kids off at school today really hit home about the tragic reality of the Aberfan disaster. A disaster which devastated and scarred such a picturesque village and community. Heart breaking.
My first season for
@YstradRFC
was his last. Loved hearing his stories. 😁Was later coached by him and loved his commitment travelling back and fore working in SW England to coach us. There’s a lot to be said about that. He’s now a mate 👍🏻 Cheers
@Scrumdoctor123
Proper bloke 👍🏻
Very well said. He gave great service to Treorchy.
A rugby man and gentleman. He was latterly a loyal supporter in
@YstradRFC
with Andrew and the family. Terrible news tonight, he will be missed. We’re united in our grief.
Very sad to report that former club captain and chairman, Neil Hutchings, has passed away this evening.
Neil gave many years of service to Treorchy RFC and played a big part in the history of our club.
Our thoughts are with his family at this sad time.
Rest in peace Neil
All the best to

u15s in the Dewar Shield final. A superb season so far and a great opportunity today.
Best wishes boys, you’re the pride of the valley today and we’re all behind you 👍
Warren Gatland has enhanced his reputation again. Knows how to bring a team together. Time and again he delivers. Just seems to get our mindset and get the best out of us. 👏🏻
QF 👏🏻 Cmon the boys 🏴
A pleasure to step in and help the Rhondda u16s boys tonight. They’ll be disappointed with the result no doubt but they’ve developed so much over the past year or so, so they can be proud. Good luck to Ponty in the semi final. 1/2
Hi
@skytv
great to see the 3 British & Irish Lions tests vs South Africa from ‘97 on
@SkySports
. Any chance of putting the whole tour ‘Living with the Lions’ for the continuing paying customers?
Outstanding Wales 20s! 🏴👏🏻
What a turn around since 6N on both sides of the ball. Congratulations to the players and coaches on a great series. Great game 👏🏻
Sunday prayers are a mix of sadness and thankfulness. Life as I know it came from my grandad Cynlais surviving as a POW. Incredible breed of bloke. Forever thankful but also remembering those who never returned. Lest we forget 🙏🏻
Well it poured down all week but Center Parcs doesn’t disappoint. Nice to get away with these precious people and some good friends 👍🏻
☔️☔️☔️ Good times!
Merry Christmas all! I hope it’s a good one!!
Christmas is never cancelled. It represents hope that’s everlasting, not just for a day ✝️
Peace and good will to all 👍💙
Braved the elements this morning down Rest Bay! ☔️💨 Lovely to see Max enjoying playing football and learning how good sport is! Class 👌🏻
