For some it was destiny, written in the stars. | :00:00. | :00:38. | |
For others the writing was on the wall. | :00:39. | :00:42. | |
Which moment of madness had you off your feet? | :00:43. | :00:47. | |
# Waltzing Matilda, Waltzing Matilda... | :00:48. | :01:10. | |
And why was this guy laughing so much? | :01:11. | :01:18. | |
See you in Long, see you in Marseille. I can't wait. | :01:19. | :01:22. | |
It's been a monumental year of magical moments. | :01:23. | :01:28. | |
This is the Welsh Sports Review 2015. | :01:29. | :01:36. | |
2015 started with a resolution, out with the Red, in with the Blue. | :01:37. | :01:47. | |
Vincent Tan is sane, red is lucky, but when they start losing red is | :01:48. | :01:55. | |
not that lucky. The thing I think should be sacrosanct is the colours | :01:56. | :02:03. | |
and the badge of a club. Starting from Saturday 10th of January 2015 | :02:04. | :02:08. | |
our home kit should be below. It is nice to see them back in blue and I | :02:09. | :02:19. | |
am glad that common sense prevailed. Swansea city are preparing for life | :02:20. | :02:21. | |
without Wilfried Bony. In the January sales the Swans sold | :02:22. | :02:23. | |
Bony and pocketed 28 million quid. Meanwhile back along | :02:24. | :02:26. | |
the M4 their old rivals Cardiff City We are having to shop in a different | :02:27. | :02:35. | |
area. We all not shopping in Harrods now. I think he is shopping in | :02:36. | :02:42. | |
Poundstretcher, I am not sure you can use that, can you? They were | :02:43. | :02:48. | |
never shopping in Harrods, so back to the pound shop, I think. | :02:49. | :02:58. | |
And it was farewell to the Hair Bear. | :02:59. | :03:00. | |
After 95 caps for Wales and five Lions tests it was last orders | :03:01. | :03:04. | |
Time to spark things up for what would be the second-biggest | :03:05. | :03:11. | |
rugby tournament coming to Wales this year. | :03:12. | :03:19. | |
The 6 Nations needs no introduction, it is always going to be massive. | :03:20. | :03:28. | |
Even people who don't support rugby religiously in Wales come out to | :03:29. | :03:32. | |
support that. It is an incredible buzz, no body can wait to get | :03:33. | :03:38. | |
started. You watch the atmosphere leading up to the game and then you | :03:39. | :03:42. | |
start seeing the Welsh appearing everyone. I just really buy into | :03:43. | :03:51. | |
that philosophy. There is no better way to build up to the 6 Nations | :03:52. | :03:57. | |
than with an Eddie Butler montage. The 6 Nations wouldn't be the 6 | :03:58. | :04:03. | |
Nations without Eddie Butler saying, but have come up from the valleys | :04:04. | :04:08. | |
and they are here to give their heart. Baha'is of Wales, the tries | :04:09. | :04:16. | |
of Wales. Gorgeous George's lies of Wales. It is like Dylan Thomas has | :04:17. | :04:27. | |
inhabited the body of Eddie Butler. We know exactly the size of Wales. | :04:28. | :04:32. | |
Then they tell you it is Wales-England on Friday night to | :04:33. | :04:34. | |
kick things off. When they beat England the Welsh | :04:35. | :04:47. | |
people will have a smile on their faces for the rest of the year. That | :04:48. | :04:51. | |
is what it means to Wales. Come on, Wales. Just when you think | :04:52. | :04:55. | |
Wales-England can't get any bigger, it does. | :04:56. | :04:58. | |
I thought, and I in a pop concert? I thought I was in a 1970s disco, and | :04:59. | :05:16. | |
there no teams. We started waiting and then we waited some more and | :05:17. | :05:21. | |
waited some more and then it was, they really should be out by now. | :05:22. | :05:26. | |
Little did we know there was a bit of a stand-off in the tunnel. Who | :05:27. | :05:34. | |
will make the first move? England were going, you go first, Wales were | :05:35. | :05:41. | |
going, no, you go first. They got angrier the more it went on and it | :05:42. | :05:45. | |
added to the whole drama and expectation. Are we ready to go, | :05:46. | :05:54. | |
dies? Did we needed, probably not. Did I enjoy it, yes, I did. After | :05:55. | :06:00. | |
that build-up we get to the rugby. Nine minutes in we are happy days. | :06:01. | :06:09. | |
Rhys Webb is off, what a start for Wales. The man of the moment, he can | :06:10. | :06:15. | |
do no wrong, and I can't have been the only one thinking, hello, we | :06:16. | :06:20. | |
have another 30 point coming up, happy days, plain sailing, Grand | :06:21. | :06:25. | |
Slam is on. That is it, we are going to win the World Cup based on that | :06:26. | :06:30. | |
first ten minutes. Sadly, England had other ideas. It must be a try | :06:31. | :06:40. | |
for England. Excellent hands and feet and score by Jonathan Joseph. | :06:41. | :06:47. | |
George North, love him, didn't even know what day it was. How can | :06:48. | :06:53. | |
anybody knocked over George North, he is a man mountain. To see him go | :06:54. | :06:59. | |
down like that, you forget it is a rugby game, you think, please get | :07:00. | :07:00. | |
up. George the giant got back up and | :07:01. | :07:04. | |
came back on. Concussion-gate hit the headlines, | :07:05. | :07:07. | |
Wales' Grand Slam hopes knocked A famous victory for England at the | :07:08. | :07:17. | |
Millennium Stadium. I can smile now but at the time you are thinking | :07:18. | :07:21. | |
World Cup coming up, Lancaster is there, he is in charge, he does that | :07:22. | :07:28. | |
big, look at us, we have one. Certainly not a match we want to | :07:29. | :07:33. | |
remember and luckily enough George North probably won't. | :07:34. | :07:38. | |
Thankfully Wales' women managed to cheer everyone up | :07:39. | :07:39. | |
with this shock win over World Champions England. | :07:40. | :07:45. | |
A chance for Harris to finish it all off. The world champions have been | :07:46. | :07:54. | |
downed, look at those scenes of celebration. | :07:55. | :07:57. | |
Next stop for the boys was Edinburgh, where a confident | :07:58. | :08:02. | |
pundit, Andy Nicol, fancied the Scots. | :08:03. | :08:07. | |
I think it will be tight but I have a sneaking suspicion Scotland will | :08:08. | :08:14. | |
sneak it. Rhys Webb has it and he will score. Rhys Webb is a classic | :08:15. | :08:20. | |
example of somebody on form. Sometimes we weren't firing on all | :08:21. | :08:24. | |
seven does but to know you have a try scorer in him is brilliant and | :08:25. | :08:28. | |
for me John Fox is the key player for Wales. Under the posts he goes, | :08:29. | :08:31. | |
Jonathan Davies with a try. Newport County's boss | :08:32. | :08:33. | |
called it a day. Justin Edinburgh has been confirmed | :08:34. | :08:48. | |
as the new manager of Gillingham. I have no regrets, I have only done | :08:49. | :08:52. | |
what is right for the club. Are you disappointed with the reaction? | :08:53. | :08:57. | |
Without a doubt. I don't know where that has come from. | :08:58. | :08:57. | |
Jimmy Dack was on hand with one of those classic | :08:58. | :09:01. | |
It is like splitting up with your long-term girlfriend and it will | :09:02. | :09:10. | |
take you a couple of weeks but once you get going you will be back on | :09:11. | :09:12. | |
the prowl again. His Swans were on for a league | :09:13. | :09:14. | |
double against Man United Rooney. As shot by Parreira, it is | :09:15. | :09:18. | |
in. 1-0 down but the Jack | :09:19. | :09:26. | |
attack hit back. Enter the man with a rocket | :09:27. | :09:32. | |
launcher in his boots. What a goal! Shelby, a right foot | :09:33. | :09:47. | |
thunderbolt. It screams into the net, doesn't it, here's a phenomenal | :09:48. | :09:51. | |
player. Another glorious chapter in their history with their historic | :09:52. | :09:59. | |
double. It is the stuff of dreams, back in the day Swans fans probably | :10:00. | :10:03. | |
never thought they would do the double over Manchester United. If | :10:04. | :10:05. | |
you do the double over Manchester United something big is happening. | :10:06. | :10:12. | |
The big teams started to fear Swansea city. Garry Monk all of a | :10:13. | :10:16. | |
sudden was the hottest premier property in the Premier League. | :10:17. | :10:18. | |
was getting pumped up in Paris ahead of le crunch with the French. | :10:19. | :10:27. | |
France, Wales, will Wales do it? I am getting a bit excited. With this | :10:28. | :10:35. | |
game I think Wales will come away with this, I am pretty sure that | :10:36. | :10:38. | |
Wales can come here and win. Well, it looked like | :10:39. | :10:39. | |
a pretty good one to us. And then that moment of magic. Rhys | :10:40. | :10:55. | |
Webb, Dan Lydiate, bigger again, the million-dollar try. Dan Lydiate, the | :10:56. | :11:04. | |
genius. Every child in Wales was re-enacting that. Send Dan Biggar | :11:05. | :11:08. | |
in, Leeds Wales again. Ireland came to Wales or guns | :11:09. | :11:24. | |
blazing, what a match. The Wales defence against Ireland, incredible. | :11:25. | :11:28. | |
Shaun Edwards is just a legend Tom isn't he? You don't really feel like | :11:29. | :11:34. | |
they are ever going to be breached, they are so solid. | :11:35. | :11:35. | |
You couldn't fathom these statistics, Luke Charteris, 31 | :11:36. | :11:50. | |
tackles made. I counted 31 in one phase but how exciting is defence? | :11:51. | :11:56. | |
It is no tries, no tries, no tries and that defends that day was | :11:57. | :12:01. | |
heroic. I remember being on my feet going, come on! It is lovely to see. | :12:02. | :12:07. | |
We also had a bit of flair in Scott Williams. Newcastle -- Newcastle | :12:08. | :12:16. | |
Emlyn Berrer comes on, incredible. -- boy comes on. Ireland after the | :12:17. | :12:22. | |
match were distraught, Wales are bouncing back to the dressing room. | :12:23. | :12:26. | |
and a Welsh track star aptly named Seren was helping Team GB gather up | :12:27. | :12:32. | |
medals out in Prague at the European Indoor | :12:33. | :12:34. | |
Great Britain somewhat distance in fifth place but a great chance for | :12:35. | :12:50. | |
Davis to bring them back into it. She is developing into a great | :12:51. | :12:54. | |
athlete. Davies trying to get Great Britain into a good position for the | :12:55. | :12:59. | |
handover. We wanted to know more about her, we needed a new athletics | :13:00. | :13:03. | |
star and I thought I was glad she was a woman and she is one to look | :13:04. | :13:06. | |
out for. a trophy since 2007 but this year | :13:07. | :13:06. | |
two goals in just 108 seconds had Quick shot from the blue line, takes | :13:07. | :13:20. | |
a huge deflection and the Devils have 8- will -- have a goal lead. | :13:21. | :13:31. | |
They are champions and the new Iran Wales is very much under way. I'm | :13:32. | :13:36. | |
believable, couldn't thank them enough, I want to thank everybody | :13:37. | :13:40. | |
for this opportunity and I feel good right now. -- unbelievable. | :13:41. | :13:44. | |
Super Saturday ? the Six Nations tournament was coming down | :13:45. | :13:46. | |
Wales had to run riot in Rome and then pray - heavily. | :13:47. | :13:56. | |
I can't remember a better day of rugby than that super Saturday, as | :13:57. | :14:04. | |
it was called. Particularly with the trip to Italy, because we kind of | :14:05. | :14:09. | |
knew we needed a big score. Up halfway line. The first half just | :14:10. | :14:16. | |
happens and we are kind of going, where is Wales? They haven't shown | :14:17. | :14:21. | |
up. The second half, took about Wales coming alive. Amazing. Finds | :14:22. | :14:28. | |
the space, goes in under the posts. All of a sudden Wales cut loose, ran | :14:29. | :14:33. | |
riot and we were jumping up and down, I had never seen a Wales | :14:34. | :14:37. | |
performance like that, devastating attacking rugby. It goes to George | :14:38. | :14:42. | |
North, you are not go to stop him from there. Dan Biggar drops it in | :14:43. | :14:48. | |
deep, George North infra hat-trick. He gets there, second-half | :14:49. | :14:56. | |
hat-trick. I do not -- I don't know what Gatling said in the dressing | :14:57. | :15:00. | |
room but I want him to say it to me because they were unbelievable. What | :15:01. | :15:07. | |
a 6 Nations Rhys Webb has had. The boys just went out and played and it | :15:08. | :15:17. | |
was pure magic. Robertson, Sam Warburton... I think the actual game | :15:18. | :15:27. | |
made everybody happy in Wales to see our boys run with the ball like they | :15:28. | :15:32. | |
did, it is just like, run from everywhere, it doesn't matter what | :15:33. | :15:37. | |
you are doing, just run. Davies has options left and right, finds Scott | :15:38. | :15:43. | |
Williams, can he do it again? All the way through, Scott Williams. | :15:44. | :15:49. | |
Yes, another try in this sensational second half for Wales. What was | :15:50. | :15:55. | |
amazing about that game for Wales was that they almost stuck two | :15:56. | :16:00. | |
fingers up to people who said, they can't score tries any more. They | :16:01. | :16:04. | |
proved that when they need to they can play that kind of game. | :16:05. | :16:07. | |
After 40 minutes of free flowing champagne rugby, | :16:08. | :16:09. | |
Wales switched off - and in the final seconds | :16:10. | :16:11. | |
And what part is that going to play in the destination of this year's | :16:12. | :16:24. | |
Six Nations title? I hope that doesn't come back to want us, I'm | :16:25. | :16:27. | |
pleased with the way we played in the second half but we were looking | :16:28. | :16:32. | |
at it as a 40 point win and it was 16 points. You are always looking at | :16:33. | :16:35. | |
the points difference in the table. I did think they had done enough at | :16:36. | :16:38. | |
that point after that game to win it. There were some people saying it | :16:39. | :16:44. | |
is still on and we can still do it, and mathematically it was still | :16:45. | :16:47. | |
possible, but we kind of knew that it was out of our reach but what a | :16:48. | :16:49. | |
way to go out. and the English overcame the French | :16:50. | :16:51. | |
- but the trophy ended up in the massive hands | :16:52. | :17:02. | |
of Ireland's Paul O'Connell. Island are the RBS Six Nations | :17:03. | :17:05. | |
champions! there was always hope | :17:06. | :17:09. | |
but there was always that little bit With the game going to Israel you | :17:10. | :17:24. | |
always felt, can we really do it? I'd been through too many campaigns | :17:25. | :17:27. | |
with the Welsh football team to think we are going to actually | :17:28. | :17:34. | |
qualify. Ramsey's header, goal for Wales! It's Aaron Ramsey! I remember | :17:35. | :17:39. | |
listening to it on radio Wales and Rob Phillips, I thought he was going | :17:40. | :17:45. | |
to have a heart attack. Bale takes four, five steps back. Whenever you | :17:46. | :17:48. | |
see Gareth Bale standing over a free kick it is like he's taking a | :17:49. | :17:51. | |
penalty so you are always optimistic. Bale hits it, 2-0! | :17:52. | :17:59. | |
Gareth Bale proves again he's the real deal. Gareth Bale really is the | :18:00. | :18:05. | |
Roy of the Rovers, he's the star forward. He scores the goal, he | :18:06. | :18:08. | |
practically breaks the back of the net every time he does score. You | :18:09. | :18:14. | |
couldn't really ask from any more from Gareth Bale in these | :18:15. | :18:17. | |
qualifiers. Is delivered time and time again. Wales have won the ball | :18:18. | :18:22. | |
back Ramsey on the left-hand side of the penalty area, couple of step | :18:23. | :18:31. | |
overs. Bale! 3-0! It is a brace for Gareth Bale. Wales will top Group | :18:32. | :18:38. | |
B3- zero, 3-0 against Israel away, unbelievable. We dominated them, we | :18:39. | :18:44. | |
absolutely ripped them apart. At that point I realised, you know | :18:45. | :18:47. | |
what, we might not beat Belgium come the end of the year but we are very | :18:48. | :18:51. | |
much on our way now we have convincingly beaten Israel. Small | :18:52. | :18:55. | |
part of me that I cannot control started to believe and the 97% of my | :18:56. | :19:00. | |
rational mind was saying: don't let it into your head, you've been here | :19:01. | :19:05. | |
before, you've been hurt before. I can't remember which player said it | :19:06. | :19:10. | |
but after the game post match he said don't get carried away. Right! | :19:11. | :19:15. | |
We are properly getting carried away ready, the camper vans are already | :19:16. | :19:16. | |
booked. Not quite time to book | :19:17. | :19:22. | |
the campervans just yet, But Wales were one step | :19:23. | :19:24. | |
closer to the Euros. Trophy Final against the mighty | :19:25. | :19:29. | |
North Ferriby United - I know, we'd never | :19:30. | :19:31. | |
heard of them either! Opportunity here, Harris, right | :19:32. | :19:39. | |
footed, 2-0. He whips the ball across and it is in, it is 2-2. | :19:40. | :19:44. | |
Anyway it was a classic - last-minute, equalisers, | :19:45. | :19:46. | |
Wrexham are 3-2 down, Kendall with his second of the game. What a goal! | :19:47. | :19:55. | |
What a goal from Louis Moult, three minutes to go of the 120. And it all | :19:56. | :20:08. | |
came down to this penalty. 21 years of age. Thomas, it's a poor penalty. | :20:09. | :20:17. | |
North Ferriby United have won the FA Trophy. | :20:18. | :20:19. | |
And that was the end for the Wrexham manager ? no more extra | :20:20. | :20:22. | |
Anscombe goes himself, Gareth Anscombe goes himself. It was an all | :20:23. | :20:34. | |
Welsh affair at Rodney Parade in the European Challenge Cup | :20:35. | :20:34. | |
quarterfinals. Some called it the biggest game | :20:35. | :20:36. | |
in regional rugby history. A thrilling encounter and | :20:37. | :20:39. | |
the Dragons roared home victorious. The Dragons hang on in there for a | :20:40. | :20:41. | |
win over the old rivals Blues. Swansea City Women won the FAW Cup ? | :20:42. | :20:45. | |
this belter from Sarah Adams helped Cardiff Met were Premier League | :20:46. | :20:48. | |
champions and qualified for Europe ? typical students, | :20:49. | :20:55. | |
any excuse for a party! And TNS completed a domestic treble, | :20:56. | :20:59. | |
adding cups to their league Swansea City rounded | :21:00. | :21:02. | |
off their season in eighth position. Their highest ever Premier League | :21:03. | :21:10. | |
finish, thanks to some more stonkers from Shelvey and this | :21:11. | :21:22. | |
gritty win over Arsenal. Bafetimbi Gomis, it is a goal, | :21:23. | :21:32. | |
Bafetimbi Gomis's header. I love Bafetimbi Gomis, I love life, life | :21:33. | :21:38. | |
is great. I got absurdly carried away. It is almost clear! Can he get | :21:39. | :21:43. | |
the support? the Ospreys had one last throw | :21:44. | :21:45. | |
of the dice against Munster. Flicked wide at Matavesi is outside | :21:46. | :22:00. | |
him. Steps inside, Matavesi has won it for the Ospreys. | :22:01. | :22:01. | |
I want to check if there is a knock-on back here. To call it back | :22:02. | :22:12. | |
it is like the curse of the TMO. Sometimes it's brilliant and | :22:13. | :22:14. | |
sometimes you think, can you not work. | :22:15. | :22:16. | |
Pro player of the year Rhys Webb | :22:17. | :22:18. | |
That is a knock-on, no try, lads. Munster through to the final, | :22:19. | :22:30. | |
Ospreys denied. It was the cruellest of blows. | :22:31. | :22:31. | |
Heartbreak for Matavesi and his Ospreys team-mates. | :22:32. | :22:35. | |
For Barry Boxer Lightning Lee Selby - history beckoned as he was looking | :22:36. | :22:39. | |
to become only the 12th Welshman to win a world boxing title - | :22:40. | :22:45. | |
an IBF featherweight belt up for grabs - | :22:46. | :22:47. | |
Russian Evgeny Gradovich standing in the way. | :22:48. | :22:51. | |
The new IBF featherweight champion of the world, Lee Selby! | :22:52. | :23:13. | |
And the new heavyweight champion of the world, Lightning Lee Selby. Yes! | :23:14. | :23:33. | |
The Barry boy got a hero's welcome back in Barrybados. I didn't expect | :23:34. | :23:39. | |
this, the whole Town turned up. The big game in Group B, Wales versus | :23:40. | :23:48. | |
Belgium, on your home of Welsh sport. | :23:49. | :23:51. | |
Wales-Belgium in Cardiff ? Together Stronger. | :23:52. | :23:52. | |
A nation full of hope and expectation, Wales can take a big | :23:53. | :24:00. | |
step towards France next summer with a positive result tonight. The Welsh | :24:01. | :24:05. | |
boys had such a belief. You could see they actually believed on home | :24:06. | :24:09. | |
turf against Belgium they could beat them. It is a terrible header | :24:10. | :24:18. | |
straight to Bale. 1-0, Wales! Gareth Bale strikes again! The moment | :24:19. | :24:26. | |
Gareth Bale scored was just electrifying. Rugby or football, | :24:27. | :24:29. | |
I've never experienced anything like it. From then on, from the canton | :24:30. | :24:38. | |
stand you could hear it. That song travelled around that stadium. It | :24:39. | :24:43. | |
felt like the players and the fans were all one together, kind of | :24:44. | :24:49. | |
pushing together. It even gives me goose bumps now, it was incredible. | :24:50. | :24:52. | |
I've never witnessed that before at any rugby match at the Millennium | :24:53. | :24:57. | |
Stadium. And it built, and it built, and travelled all the way around. We | :24:58. | :25:01. | |
are 1-0 up and we are going to win this. I turned to my boys who are | :25:02. | :25:05. | |
six and seven, and I said I need you to remember this, you have to | :25:06. | :25:10. | |
remember how special this moment is. Because most of us here have waited | :25:11. | :25:14. | |
a lifetime to experience this. It was truly magical. The final whistle | :25:15. | :25:23. | |
goes and a nation believes! Wales have beaten Belgium, ranked second | :25:24. | :25:33. | |
in the world, thanks to Gareth Bale! The Wales and Belgium match was the | :25:34. | :25:37. | |
key match. That was the real test. That was saying, are we really that | :25:38. | :25:43. | |
good? Ranked two in the world and we beat them, not by much but enough | :25:44. | :25:46. | |
and yet again we didn't concede and yet again Gareth Bale scored, | :25:47. | :25:52. | |
brilliant. Suddenly I was thinking it is on, and can we dare to dream? | :25:53. | :25:58. | |
We all talk as Welsh people are football, football, it's rugby! Hang | :25:59. | :26:01. | |
on, football is going like that now we have the Wale. Everybody knows | :26:02. | :26:06. | |
how much I want to get to a major tournament with Wales, it's at the | :26:07. | :26:10. | |
top of my list. And it is on so we will keep working hard to do it. | :26:11. | :26:13. | |
When the Ashes came to Cardiff for the first test, certain parts | :26:14. | :26:16. | |
of the English press moaned about the weather - | :26:17. | :26:18. | |
Lots of people criticise the pitch but what is amazing on a two, three | :26:19. | :26:30. | |
and four when England were on top those commentators were saying, and | :26:31. | :26:32. | |
I love Cardiff. By the end of the days all the talk | :26:33. | :26:33. | |
was of a sell out crowd, a dashing century and a convincing | :26:34. | :26:37. | |
win for a dominant home team who were on their way | :26:38. | :26:40. | |
to a series victory. It's a great venue and I think we | :26:41. | :26:49. | |
have proved once again we can do cricket at the Swalec Stadium. And | :26:50. | :26:54. | |
you will look back at this! Ashes and says it all started in Cardiff, | :26:55. | :26:55. | |
it all started in Wales. Two-wheel wonder Geraint Thomas | :26:56. | :26:57. | |
became the first Brit to win the formidable | :26:58. | :26:59. | |
E3 Harelbeke - a cobbled classic quite stay on track | :27:00. | :27:02. | |
at the Tour de France, where he went head to | :27:03. | :27:06. | |
head with a lamp post. Welsh cyclist Geraint Thomas had a | :27:07. | :27:16. | |
narrow escape on today's 16th stage of the Tour de France. During the | :27:17. | :27:19. | |
first descent he was barged off the road and collided with a telegraph | :27:20. | :27:22. | |
pole before disappearing over the edge of the road. Must admit when I | :27:23. | :27:26. | |
first saw it I thought it was quite funny because his leg was hanging | :27:27. | :27:30. | |
off the bike, like when you are a kid, I want to go that way but I | :27:31. | :27:33. | |
can't. And this is one of the best cyclists in the world. It looked | :27:34. | :27:42. | |
like you head-butted it. Yes, I feel all right for now. I guess the | :27:43. | :27:45. | |
doctor will as me my name and my date of birth soon. Can you remember | :27:46. | :27:52. | |
either? Chris Froome. To get up from that and finish, but not just finish | :27:53. | :27:57. | |
and keep himself in contention, still sixth overall at that against | :27:58. | :28:00. | |
the world's best athletes, the guy is a legend. He's brave as a Lion. I | :28:01. | :28:07. | |
fell off my bike and it took me a year to get back on it. In fact I've | :28:08. | :28:11. | |
not been back on it after I dissipated my shoulder. I do believe | :28:12. | :28:14. | |
that one day over the next couple of years he will be the dominant figure | :28:15. | :28:18. | |
in the Tour de France and that will be great for him, great for Wales | :28:19. | :28:19. | |
and great for the rest of the world. And Welsh women were stepping up big | :28:20. | :28:22. | |
time on the world stage everywhere. A silver for Natalie Powell | :28:23. | :28:25. | |
at the World Judo Masters. More medals for Seren Bundy-Davies | :28:26. | :28:31. | |
too as she anchored the women's 4x400 relay team to bronze | :28:32. | :28:35. | |
in Beijing - becoming only the second ever female Welsh athlete | :28:36. | :28:37. | |
to win a medal at a World Seren Bundy-Davies holding on for | :28:38. | :28:41. | |
bronze for Great Britain! And triathlete Non Stanford - | :28:42. | :28:49. | |
back in action after injury - booked her ticket for | :28:50. | :28:54. | |
the Rio Olympics with a second-place finish at the World | :28:55. | :28:56. | |
Triathlon Final in Chicago. Back on planet football, | :28:57. | :28:59. | |
Swansea City continued to shock Garry Monk picked up Premier League | :29:00. | :29:01. | |
manager of the month in August - after yet another win | :29:02. | :29:10. | |
over Manchester United. Listen to the noise, for the third | :29:11. | :29:17. | |
time in a row Swansea have beaten Manchester United 2-1. We have | :29:18. | :29:24. | |
beaten United, drawn at Chelsea, and I got hugely carried away. I thought | :29:25. | :29:28. | |
we are probably going to finish second and have a good tilt at the | :29:29. | :29:29. | |
title, I think. The Rugby World Cup | :29:30. | :29:32. | |
was edging closer - but who would survive | :29:33. | :29:34. | |
the brutal boot camps? Who would make it | :29:35. | :29:36. | |
into the Dragons Den? What I always think is how harsh it | :29:37. | :29:45. | |
is for those on the periphery of the squad. They turn up thinking I've | :29:46. | :29:48. | |
got to train even harder to impress the coaching staff to get into that | :29:49. | :29:53. | |
31 and do all that training and then they go, listen, thanks but no | :29:54. | :29:58. | |
thanks. Oh my goodness, you must be so gutted. | :29:59. | :30:01. | |
Two warm-ups against Ireland, one defeat, one victory ? | :30:02. | :30:03. | |
and it was decision time for Gats ? 48 had to become 31. | :30:04. | :30:11. | |
Rugby, and Wales coach Warren Gatland has axed read the name | :30:12. | :30:19. | |
British Lions from his World Cup training squad. See you Phillips, | :30:20. | :30:20. | |
James Huck, absolutely brutal. When Wales played Italy, if I had | :30:21. | :30:37. | |
rung Warren Gatland and said, it is one game too far... If I had been in | :30:38. | :30:45. | |
I would have put the rubbish players on, the ones who are never going to | :30:46. | :30:50. | |
help you. Don't put Rhys Webb and Halfpenny on, put on the ones who it | :30:51. | :30:55. | |
doesn't matter if they get injured. It was horrendous, like watching | :30:56. | :31:01. | |
your kids play in traffic. Then of course it started. Rhys Webb goes | :31:02. | :31:07. | |
down... You know straightaway it is not good, you know he is out, they | :31:08. | :31:13. | |
not confirming it but he is out. One of Wales's key players of last year | :31:14. | :31:18. | |
is going to be taken on a. Extremely bad luck for Rhys Webb. The are to | :31:19. | :31:23. | |
go down like he did in that innocuous injury, the pain is so | :31:24. | :31:27. | |
heartbreaking for somebody who has worked so hard to get there. I | :31:28. | :31:31. | |
really felt for him. I was devastated. At this stage we were | :31:32. | :31:38. | |
looking at Gatlin saying, get them all off, blow the whistle, we don't | :31:39. | :31:43. | |
know anything else to go wrong. -- Warren Gatland. And it did. That | :31:44. | :31:49. | |
does not look good, and after losing Rhys Webb it could be disastrous if | :31:50. | :31:55. | |
they lose Leigh Halfpenny for the World Cup as well. The nation is | :31:56. | :32:00. | |
holding their breath because we know how important Bayard to us, the goal | :32:01. | :32:03. | |
kick and the guy who is really unfair on to score tries to us. To | :32:04. | :32:14. | |
lose two key players in a meaningless international match was | :32:15. | :32:16. | |
heartbreaking as a nation but more importantly heartbreaking for those | :32:17. | :32:21. | |
two lads. It felt like the gods were conspiring against us. | :32:22. | :32:27. | |
As Wales' remaining rugby players wrapped | :32:28. | :32:28. | |
themselves in cotton wool, our footballers headed out to Cyprus | :32:29. | :32:31. | |
- not on a lads' holiday, but to take another scalp. | :32:32. | :32:33. | |
Crossed into the middle. Goal for Wales! And it is Gareth Bale again. | :32:34. | :32:54. | |
That goal against Cyprus was just him dragging us to these finals. His | :32:55. | :33:14. | |
levels of consistency for Wales are better than anybody I have seen. It | :33:15. | :33:20. | |
was that moment of Roberts when he opens his arms with the biggest | :33:21. | :33:25. | |
smile on his face and Gareth Bale and the other players running | :33:26. | :33:29. | |
towards them, and they have this massive hug and I think it | :33:30. | :33:34. | |
represented the mass of Wales, stronger together. Whales are one | :33:35. | :33:41. | |
win away from booking their ticket to France. Get the ice and the | :33:42. | :33:47. | |
champagne ready and get ready to pop those corks. | :33:48. | :33:53. | |
would guarantee Wales' European spot. | :33:54. | :34:02. | |
Live football as Wales take on Israel and victory would secure a | :34:03. | :34:08. | |
place in a major type -- major tournament for the first time since | :34:09. | :34:13. | |
1958. This was the day we were going to qualify for France. | :34:14. | :34:14. | |
In the end when I saw Church nick that header I went mental because I | :34:15. | :34:28. | |
thought we were going to get it. It was headed home by Church but he was | :34:29. | :34:35. | |
offside. Close but no cigar. Frustration for Chris Coleman and | :34:36. | :34:38. | |
his men, Israel have been party poopers. Not to be but I am quite | :34:39. | :34:45. | |
sure that sooner or later we will be celebrating. | :34:46. | :34:46. | |
a party hosted by England but gatecrashed by Wales. | :34:47. | :34:56. | |
Even before a ball had been kicked Cardiff felt like the centre of the | :34:57. | :35:05. | |
World Cup. The ball in the wall marked us as the place to be. There | :35:06. | :35:11. | |
was such a buzz around the place. It felt like our World Cup, from Kiwis | :35:12. | :35:15. | |
to South Africa they all came. And everyone loved our FanZone, | :35:16. | :35:17. | |
especially the Irish. There was that great footage of all | :35:18. | :35:29. | |
of these thousands of Irish fans in the supporter 's own watching Japan | :35:30. | :35:36. | |
when they beat South Africa. The buzz was incredible. Japan have | :35:37. | :35:43. | |
beaten South Africa had -- in the biggest shock in the history of the | :35:44. | :35:48. | |
Rugby World Cup. I was particularly fond of the Japanese fan, the | :35:49. | :35:55. | |
bunting Shane Williams. I have never seen such excitement on a man's | :35:56. | :36:02. | |
face. Oh, Shane Williams, he are here is Shane Williams are it is | :36:03. | :36:06. | |
Shane Williams, it is Shane Williams! Sorry... Take picture? | :36:07. | :36:23. | |
Japanese, very famous. No problem. It is OK, buddy. Chill out. OK, and | :36:24. | :36:36. | |
one for luck. There you are. Oh, so... | :36:37. | :36:40. | |
Shane Williams! Shane Williams! It was opera singer Wynne Evans who | :36:41. | :36:44. | |
was given the task of teaching the Welsh team to sing | :36:45. | :36:47. | |
at the official reception. HE SINGS IN WELSH | :36:48. | :37:09. | |
They sing in Welsh I just want to say that Saint God | :37:10. | :37:16. | |
the Welsh rugby team play rugby better than they sing. | :37:17. | :37:19. | |
And Welsh legend Scott Quinnell was also bringing noise. | :37:20. | :37:25. | |
And bringing rush-hour London to a standstill with some good | :37:26. | :37:29. | |
We have to put England under pressure, play a bit wider, be | :37:30. | :37:41. | |
strong, be powerful. These guys know what it is like to win at Twickenham | :37:42. | :37:47. | |
and if they go with that mindset, Bowie, it will be a big day. | :37:48. | :37:48. | |
Come on, Wales! in the bag, Wales arrived | :37:49. | :37:50. | |
at Twickenham for the biggy. It felt like you could multiply | :37:51. | :37:58. | |
every single Wales-England match in history, multiply it by ten, and | :37:59. | :38:03. | |
that was the significance of this game. The Stereophonics, Geraint | :38:04. | :38:13. | |
Thomas, the Prince, I was living large that they, this is the life! | :38:14. | :38:18. | |
We were out of it, we were written off, our players were all over the | :38:19. | :38:24. | |
player, it was curtains for Wales, we were over, we were out, England | :38:25. | :38:29. | |
were going to win. I thought we were over, but that recovery... And then | :38:30. | :38:36. | |
little Lloyd Williams... Lloyd Williams did that little chip. | :38:37. | :38:41. | |
Because he is a scrum-half he in his mind is running the line that Gareth | :38:42. | :38:46. | |
Davies is running, he knows that, I genuinely believe that. This is | :38:47. | :38:49. | |
going to happen, they are going to score! | :38:50. | :38:54. | |
It is almost like the whole world stood still. And the rest, as they | :38:55. | :39:05. | |
say, is history! Williams kicks, it is chaste I'm, | :39:06. | :39:12. | |
Gareth Davies picks it up and he is over! | :39:13. | :39:13. | |
The kick from Dan Biggar! Wales take the lead, extraordinary. Yes! I love | :39:14. | :39:36. | |
it, I love it. Come on. Then write for the death they kick for touch. | :39:37. | :39:41. | |
Why would you do that? You would take a draw. That decision for me | :39:42. | :39:47. | |
sums up the endless. The absolute arrogance of them. And then to watch | :39:48. | :39:55. | |
them lose was just... It was a wonderful feeling. Five seconds and | :39:56. | :40:02. | |
counting, back comes the ball to Dan Biggar. And Wales have done it! What | :40:03. | :40:09. | |
a remarkable victory! A momentous win for Wales! I have never seen | :40:10. | :40:15. | |
Warren Gatland celebrate like that after a game. I could see how much | :40:16. | :40:23. | |
that victory meant to him. We did it against all odds, Wales beat England | :40:24. | :40:32. | |
at Twickenham. What a party. Every single red jersey in the crowd went | :40:33. | :40:36. | |
mental and everybody at home was going crazy. Yes! Get in there! Get | :40:37. | :40:46. | |
in there, come on! Chris Lynn jumping up and down in LA is the | :40:47. | :40:49. | |
social media clip of the year for me. -- Chris Lynn jumping up and | :40:50. | :40:58. | |
down. It represented how we all felt, just screaming with sheer joy. | :40:59. | :41:07. | |
Suddenly you look on WhatsApp macro and there is that Spanish guy | :41:08. | :41:10. | |
laughing. To be honest with you, England | :41:11. | :41:37. | |
should have won that game. It is almost like they did anything not to | :41:38. | :41:42. | |
win. What you think the difference was between the two sides? They won | :41:43. | :41:48. | |
and we lost. This is awkward. There seem to be a lot of turnovers and | :41:49. | :41:58. | |
penalties, did that have an effect. Yes, it probably cost us the game. | :41:59. | :42:04. | |
Do you regret going for the penalty? No. Awkward. Do you think you can | :42:05. | :42:17. | |
put one over them? Hopefully, otherwise we are out both the World | :42:18. | :42:19. | |
Cup. He was rude and if I had done that I | :42:20. | :42:30. | |
would have laughed. He did himself no favours, there was no need for | :42:31. | :42:33. | |
that but I thoroughly enjoyed it. How good was Dan Biggar to quietly | :42:34. | :42:39. | |
go about his business inventing a new dance move, performing it in | :42:40. | :42:43. | |
front of thousands of people every week. Everybody is doing the | :42:44. | :42:49. | |
Biggarena. It is a hair rubbed and... It is | :42:50. | :43:07. | |
whatever floats your boat. I like doing it, that is really sad, | :43:08. | :43:13. | |
isn't it? It is like him getting out all his nervous energy. I watch | :43:14. | :43:18. | |
rugby every Sunday with my children, they are all billing be Biggarena. | :43:19. | :43:26. | |
It is just William. Because he was programmed at birth, because he is a | :43:27. | :43:32. | |
machine, they forgot to unprogrammed this bit, so it stops him going, | :43:33. | :43:39. | |
malfunction, and makes him into the kicker he is. | :43:40. | :43:41. | |
We were legitimately allowed to support Australia because it | :43:42. | :43:53. | |
mattered to us. I have never seen so many Wales fans buying Australia | :43:54. | :43:59. | |
shirts. There was a tweet by the lovely Divina McCall, who I am a fan | :44:00. | :44:05. | |
of, but she was very disappointed that as a nation we couldn't support | :44:06. | :44:10. | |
England on that day. Wake up, Divina! It is us or you, love. | :44:11. | :44:24. | |
# Waltzing Matilda, Waltzing Matilda... Please Walt 's, Matilda | :44:25. | :44:33. | |
is, in Twickenham tonight. Funny. England have just lost to | :44:34. | :44:45. | |
Australia. We haven't beaten England leading up to that until 2012. | :44:46. | :44:50. | |
England head coach Stuart Lancaster says... Gutted to be going out of | :44:51. | :44:56. | |
the World Cup, and obviously our World Cup. England are knocked out | :44:57. | :45:08. | |
after losing to Australia. A great night for Wales, though. England do | :45:09. | :45:15. | |
not go out of the group stages of your home World Cup. Cue up more of | :45:16. | :45:22. | |
the YouTube clips, having a Cue more crazy YouTube clips - | :45:23. | :45:24. | |
all having a laugh at It mattered for our path to the | :45:25. | :45:41. | |
final. Beaten Australia would have given us and easier path. Australia | :45:42. | :45:46. | |
are down to 13 men and Wales must go for the jugular. You are thinking, | :45:47. | :45:52. | |
hello, a couple of tries here or at least one. We looked like we were | :45:53. | :45:56. | |
going to school for ten minutes, it looked like a try was a certainty. | :45:57. | :46:02. | |
George North goes back inside, he is over the try-line. Has he got it? | :46:03. | :46:09. | |
No, he has been held up again. Somehow it didn't happen and we just | :46:10. | :46:12. | |
knew, this is not going to be our night. I can't tell you how we | :46:13. | :46:17. | |
didn't score. I'm not sure Wales could have done any more than they | :46:18. | :46:20. | |
did, sometimes you just have to go, it is not going to be our day. We | :46:21. | :46:25. | |
could have won that game, we were over the line, you can't do much | :46:26. | :46:29. | |
more than that. We score that and everything changes. | :46:30. | :46:32. | |
Wales football - with another chance to clinch qualification. | :46:33. | :46:39. | |
Wales go to Bosnia and we only need a point, surely this is it. The | :46:40. | :46:49. | |
corner comes across. It is turned in by a Bisevac, Wales have lost 2-0 -- | :46:50. | :47:00. | |
Ibisevic. We lose in Bosnia and it feels like the end of the world. | :47:01. | :47:05. | |
Wales lose and you are thinking, you know what, I've been here too many | :47:06. | :47:09. | |
times. Don't tell me this is going to happen, don't tell me we have | :47:10. | :47:12. | |
done all the hard work and it's going to come unstuck here now. | :47:13. | :47:16. | |
While we watched Chris Coleman looking particularly glum walking | :47:17. | :47:19. | |
around the pitch saying, sorry, we have lost, on the screen that there | :47:20. | :47:23. | |
is a little television telling you Cyprus have beaten Israel which | :47:24. | :47:31. | |
means we are there. Q total pandemonium. Chris Coleman's men, | :47:32. | :47:36. | |
despite being beaten here, have freed Welsh football from the | :47:37. | :47:42. | |
shackles of their history. I started crying, not clubbing, but I suddenly | :47:43. | :47:47. | |
got incredibly emotional. Seeing all the players sliding around on the | :47:48. | :47:50. | |
pitch and Chris Coleman being given the bumps. The Joe Ledley dance | :47:51. | :47:57. | |
going on. It was utter chaos and brilliant to watch. It just summed | :47:58. | :48:04. | |
up how tight this team are, what a United bunch of players they are. | :48:05. | :48:10. | |
You can sort out the holiday plans for the summer because Wales are | :48:11. | :48:18. | |
going to the Euro 2016 finals. We should be there, we always should | :48:19. | :48:22. | |
have been there for stock now 57 years later we are going to be there | :48:23. | :48:23. | |
and it's lovely. Could Welsh rugby match | :48:24. | :48:25. | |
the achievements of the football It is Justin Marshall here again, I | :48:26. | :48:39. | |
am back. First up quarterfinal one, Wales versus South Africa at | :48:40. | :48:44. | |
Twickenham. Prediction for this from me is that Wales will sneak home. | :48:45. | :48:49. | |
Now you're thinking, he's just saying this because it's on Welsh | :48:50. | :48:51. | |
TV. Time for some gladiator-style | :48:52. | :48:52. | |
inspiration from an eight-year old from Aberdare - | :48:53. | :48:56. | |
look out Eddie Butler! Wales, today you will be strong. | :48:57. | :49:08. | |
Take responsibility for your country. 3 million people believe in | :49:09. | :49:22. | |
you. You will be fearless. Will be winners. | :49:23. | :49:27. | |
So Wales back at HQ, again, for a Rugby World Cup quarter-final, | :49:28. | :49:30. | |
against that dangerous animal ? the Springbok. | :49:31. | :49:34. | |
I think if anyone had told us before the World Cup after all of those | :49:35. | :49:39. | |
injuries in the warm up games that we would even get out of the group | :49:40. | :49:43. | |
we would have taken it. But by the time you get to the quarterfinal | :49:44. | :49:46. | |
your expectations are right up here, you think we've made it this far and | :49:47. | :49:50. | |
there is no reason we can't beat South Africa. We've done it, we know | :49:51. | :49:56. | |
we can do it. Gareth Davies's try, but more importantly Dan Biggar's | :49:57. | :49:59. | |
kick chase, the three quarters up and under. Dan Biggar at the 22, | :50:00. | :50:08. | |
still going, passes it on to Gareth Davies and Gareth Davies scores for | :50:09. | :50:12. | |
Wales. The longer the game was going on the more confident I was | :50:13. | :50:17. | |
becoming. As a nation we were becoming. The Welsh team believed | :50:18. | :50:20. | |
they could win it but in rugby it doesn't always go your way. Du Preez | :50:21. | :50:29. | |
is over in the corner. Again, I suppose it was a game we could have | :50:30. | :50:32. | |
won and once again it wasn't meant to be. The boys can hold their heads | :50:33. | :50:41. | |
up high, they did us proud. So we went in the final but there was a | :50:42. | :50:47. | |
certain Welshman who was. Nigel Owens will referee this weekend's | :50:48. | :50:52. | |
World Cup final between Australia and New Zealand. Nigel Owens, is he | :50:53. | :50:57. | |
a referee or a celebrity now? I'm not sure. Our Nigel getting the | :50:58. | :51:02. | |
World Cup final, we're not going to hear the end of this now, he's going | :51:03. | :51:03. | |
to be unbearable. In the final, Richie McCaw's | :51:04. | :51:05. | |
All Blacks lifted the trophy and Sonny Bill Williams | :51:06. | :51:07. | |
lifted our spirits. I thought Nigel's performance was | :51:08. | :51:13. | |
brilliant and he stood up to show he's one of the best referees in the | :51:14. | :51:18. | |
world, if not the best. As a nation, not only should we be proud of our | :51:19. | :51:23. | |
team but we should be proud of Sir Nigel of Owens. | :51:24. | :51:27. | |
From Sir Nigel of Owens to Sir Gareth of Edwards. | :51:28. | :51:30. | |
Gareth Edwards, widely regarded as Wales's best ever rugby player has | :51:31. | :51:38. | |
been awarded at a ceremony at Windsor Castle. | :51:39. | :51:46. | |
Another Welsh athlete dominating on a world scale - | :51:47. | :51:50. | |
Hollie Arnold - the IPC Championships in Doha - | :51:51. | :51:53. | |
The Welsh were really throwing their weight around out | :51:54. | :51:57. | |
there ? a leaner, meaner Aled Sion Davies had already been | :51:58. | :52:00. | |
smashing his own world records all year when he smashed out more | :52:01. | :52:03. | |
What I think he's doing, and he's clever here, he's throwing it just | :52:04. | :52:08. | |
far enough. He can actually throw it a lot further but he throws it just | :52:09. | :52:11. | |
far enough to keep breaking his world record. Everyone reckons I'm | :52:12. | :52:14. | |
just breaking it one bit at a time but I'm honestly not. I just seem to | :52:15. | :52:18. | |
get it one bit at a time. The big jumps will come. Captain marvellous, | :52:19. | :52:24. | |
as I call him. What can I say about him? He just keeps on winning medals | :52:25. | :52:28. | |
at the medals. He's like the Usain Bolt of his sport, I reckon. | :52:29. | :52:30. | |
From the deserts of Doha in the Middle East to the wild wild | :52:31. | :52:33. | |
west of North America - featherweight world champion | :52:34. | :52:38. | |
Lee Selby was looking to defend his title. | :52:39. | :52:42. | |
I'm a world champion so I want world wide recognition and I want to fight | :52:43. | :52:50. | |
in America and look good. Standing in his way, | :52:51. | :52:52. | |
the Mexican Fernando Montiel. Selby really dominating the last | :52:53. | :53:00. | |
minute and would appear to be on the verge of a strong decision victory | :53:01. | :53:05. | |
here tonight. ANNOUNCER: And still featherweight | :53:06. | :53:14. | |
champion, Lee the Barry boy assassin, Selby. | :53:15. | :53:20. | |
He has incredible self belief, he is silky smooth and when you see him | :53:21. | :53:25. | |
fight, to me he looks unbeatable. He's a real warrior, he looks like a | :53:26. | :53:29. | |
boxer and he means business as well. He's the real deal, this Die once | :53:30. | :53:35. | |
it. Again, is great for Wales. Those athletes who are pushing the | :53:36. | :53:36. | |
boundaries. You little beauty. The teenage | :53:37. | :53:51. | |
kicking superstar from North Wales is the Olympic champion. | :53:52. | :53:54. | |
Since 2012 our golden girl Jade Jones had been a bit quiet. | :53:55. | :53:58. | |
This year she did not have a particularly good start to the | :53:59. | :54:03. | |
season. She had kind of lost her Mojo a little bit and her hunger and | :54:04. | :54:07. | |
it was hard to go to training. You could understand it. | :54:08. | :54:09. | |
Nicknamed the HeadHunter Jade had a point to prove - | :54:10. | :54:11. | |
She had the home Grand Prix in Manchester and she went 4-0 down to | :54:12. | :54:21. | |
one of her biggest rivals. With the Spanish girl if you go down it is | :54:22. | :54:25. | |
hard to get her back because she is really a evasive. I got one point | :54:26. | :54:28. | |
back and I thought I'm not losing in front of my home crowd, I caught her | :54:29. | :54:32. | |
in the head and she was phased and stunned and I kept going and came | :54:33. | :54:36. | |
back from 4-0 down. It was an amazing win. | :54:37. | :54:40. | |
Jade's Grand Prix victory cemented her place as the world | :54:41. | :54:43. | |
number one head-kicker and confirmed she'll get the chance | :54:44. | :54:45. | |
to defend her Olympic crown in Brazil next year. | :54:46. | :54:49. | |
Anyone that doubted her, I think she has proved them wrong now. And just | :54:50. | :54:56. | |
excited for her now. She's done the hard work and she can concentrate on | :54:57. | :55:00. | |
Rio. As she says I'm sure she will go back and kick a few heads, she | :55:01. | :55:05. | |
enjoys doing that. When you chat to hurt you would never think she does | :55:06. | :55:08. | |
tae kwon do because she is this beautiful lovely girl until she | :55:09. | :55:11. | |
tries to kick you in the head but luckily with me she has never tried | :55:12. | :55:13. | |
to do that. Welsh swimmer Jazz | :55:14. | :55:16. | |
Carlin made a splash at the | :55:17. | :55:20. | |
Swimming World Cup in Qatar winning two silvers in the 800m | :55:21. | :55:24. | |
and 400m freestyle. And then grabbed golds | :55:25. | :55:26. | |
at the European Champs in Israel. Wales' Hannah Mills | :55:27. | :55:31. | |
was making waves too. sailed to the top of | :55:32. | :55:32. | |
the World Rankings in the 470 class and look like serious | :55:33. | :55:40. | |
medal contenders for Rio. And in rugby league Wales | :55:41. | :55:44. | |
became European champions The pressure is mounting tonight on | :55:45. | :55:51. | |
Swansea City manager Garry Monk. You get somewhere and then you get | :55:52. | :55:54. | |
setback, it's frustrating for me and the players. One win in 11, have | :55:55. | :55:58. | |
scored in seven of those, Garry Monk says he takes responsible at it, how | :55:59. | :56:02. | |
does he turn it around? The next couple of games are crucial for | :56:03. | :56:05. | |
Swansea and they have got to find a whim. At the moment I don't think | :56:06. | :56:11. | |
they will go down. There are problems in the club and I can't put | :56:12. | :56:14. | |
my finger on it and it really worries me. After weeks of | :56:15. | :56:18. | |
speculation Swansea City parted company with Garry Monk. The team | :56:19. | :56:23. | |
have won once in the last 13 games and lie one point from the Premier | :56:24. | :56:26. | |
League's relegation zone. Club chairman Huw Jenkins said he took | :56:27. | :56:30. | |
the decision to part with Garry Monk reluctantly and with a heavy heart. | :56:31. | :56:34. | |
This is what makes modern football so absolutely bonkers. Let's not | :56:35. | :56:40. | |
forget Garry Monk won Manager of the Month. There seems to be no loyalty | :56:41. | :56:45. | |
and football any more. How can you go from a possible future England | :56:46. | :56:48. | |
manager to not being good enough for the team that you guided to eighth | :56:49. | :56:50. | |
position in the Premier League? At the Wales Sports Awards Hannah | :56:51. | :56:53. | |
Brier and Matt Story picked up the Carwyn James Prize for most | :56:54. | :56:59. | |
promising young sports stars. Sir Gareth Edwards was given | :57:00. | :57:01. | |
the Lifetime Achievement. And the BBC Cymru Wales Sports | :57:02. | :57:05. | |
Personality of the Year award went Team of the Year Award to the Welsh | :57:06. | :57:15. | |
football side, and Chris Coleman scooped up the prize for best coach. | :57:16. | :57:19. | |
Preparations for the Euros began with a friendly | :57:20. | :57:24. | |
Joe Allan has never scored for Wales. It is in. A goal from the | :57:25. | :57:34. | |
bearded Joe Ledley gives a chance to see that dance one last time. And | :57:35. | :57:44. | |
what about Hughes's header? Hughes will remember this moment for the | :57:45. | :57:53. | |
rest of his life. But in the end it was a Dutch masterclass. Arjen | :57:54. | :57:59. | |
Robben strikes again. A 3-2 defeat at the moment we had all been | :58:00. | :58:03. | |
waiting for, the draw for Euro 2016. Wales. Wales drawn in Paul B with | :58:04. | :58:11. | |
Russia, Slovakia and England. -- pool the. | :58:12. | :58:16. | |
I'd like to wish the Welsh football team all the best. Good luck. If | :58:17. | :58:32. | |
everyone who said to me, I will see you in France, Jason, there would be | :58:33. | :58:34. | |
nobody left here. We love to sing, we love to dance, | :58:35. | :58:46. | |
we got our passports and we are off to France. Almost everyone I've | :58:47. | :58:56. | |
spoken to said CU in France, see you in Nantes, see you in Marseille. -- | :58:57. | :59:05. | |
C U in France. We will all go on some pilgrimage, we should go in | :59:06. | :59:10. | |
single file car and drive through France together, 80,000 camper vans. | :59:11. | :59:17. | |
That would be great, I can't wait. I can't wait, I'm so excited. | :59:18. | :59:21. |
