[QUOTE="Welsh Exile, post: 1038368, member: 82670"] No worries. It’s hard to gauge tone online. Do we usually keep the roof open against you? I honestly don’t know. I vaguely remember us closing it last time we played in Cardiff as we wanted the atmosphere to be as intimidating as possible but genuinely not sure about the other times. I agree it’s a different kettle of fish out in SA, no doubt, but I wouldn’t necessarily say it’s the dryness but more the heat and altitude that’s the problem. I think most rugby players prefer playing in dry conditions even Welsh ones who live in a pretty rainy country. Our record out in SA is terrible though, for sure. One game out there I’ve tried to totally wipe from my memory was one we were absolutely smashing you in in the first half and I thought omg we look like we’re going to record some history here and then we proceeded to totally bottle the 2nd half and lost the game by 1 point.
