It’s fair to say Welsh rugby has had better weekends, what with the Wales senior team crashing to a 29-7 defeat in Dublin and the U20s wiped out 53-5 in Cork.
Maybe those on the Welsh Rugby Union who were out in the Irish capital could have spent time on Misery Hill, one of the city’s most memorably named streets. It would have suited the mood of the times for the game in Wales.
But the despair wasn’t total.
