Its laughable that the WRU say they are skint, then they do stuff like this. crazy crazy people

It'll be covered by an insurance company and only cost the WRU about 50k in reality. I rather suspect they got it because the insurers see it like a safe bet.

It's like England though, they're paying an insurance company when in reality if they went to the bookies they'd save a fortune. Wales are 66-1 to win the WC so if the WRU put money on that instead of giving it to an insurance company it'd only cost them 4 and half grand !

They could offer them £1 million pounds each. We're never going to win, its probably the safest bet ever!
