I’ve got a Meta Quest 3. It’s a great bit of hardware but the Meta ecosystem makes me actively not want to use it, eventhough a portion of my games are streamed via Steam VR.

So if the Steam Frame is comparable spec wise, I’ll happily sell my Quest 3 to fund this purchase.

I’ll be honest, at about the 70 minute mark I thought Wales were utterly cooked. Delighted for the win. I hope it gives the team some valuable experience, but woof! Lots to work on.

There’s a lot of politics at play and I think the WRU are trying to take an approach where they are seen to be working with the regions to bring about change. Or it might be to give less ammunition for a legal challenge. :D

I’m surprised they decided to only drop down to 3 regions and not 2. In some ways it seems fairer in terms of spreading the pain around, and would focus our resources in having (hopefully) two very good regions.

I think the changes to the regions is set to happen by 2028. And whilst the WRU is trying to avoid a messy legal process, it seems inevitable as nobody will want to go quietly.

I sound terribly pessimistic. And I’m not. I’m pleased to see the WRU finally recognise that change is needed, mostly brought about by the downturn in results. But I suspect this process isn’t going to be quick, and maybe it shouldn’t be if it’s really getting the fundamental stuff right.

Sadly for Wales, I don’t think we’ve found rock bottom yet. Change takes time and the WRU have an awful lot of foundational systemic stuff to fix.

I dead headed mine last year when it looked like this, came back fine this year. Have just done the same this year.

I tend to give it a good prune in October and take out anything that looks like it’s struggling. Thing is growing like mad and seems pretty resilient.

Also based in the UK. :)
