Wales suffered a brutal 54‑12 defeat to France in Cardiff, leaving fans and players asking hard questions about the state of Welsh rugby. In this episode of Attacking Scrum, we break down exactly what went wrong on the field — from structural failures to tactical confusion — and discuss the key moments that exposed the team’s composure and confidence.

We also look at the wider implications: a record-low crowd at a Six Nations match, what that says about fan belief, and whether the current squad has the clarity and identity needed to compete at Test level. Finally, we review the rest of the weekend’s Six Nations action, including Scotland’s shock over England and Ireland’s win over Italy, asking what lessons Wales can take from their rivals.

An honest, analytical, and objective discussion of Welsh rugby at a very challenging moment.
