'I'm sick of it' - Wales star rips into WRU bosses
Western Mail
|September 13, 2025
WALES fly-half Gareth Anscombe has slammed Welsh Rugby Union bosses and says players should have gone on strike in 2023.
After a stint in PREM Rugby with Gloucester, he has signed for Bayonne ahead of the upcoming campaign. With his new chapter under way in the south of France, the talismanic number 10 decided to speak frankly about the current state of Welsh rugby, and openly criticised the WRU’s plan to cut the number of regions to two in recent weeks.
However, in an interview with MailOnline, Anscombe has been far more scathing with his assessment of the game in Wales, and has laid into the organisation’s bosses, suggesting they have a holier-than-thou attitude towards players.
Anscombe begins by stating that if the WRU decide to go down to two professional teams, then the game may never recover in Wales.
