Sam Warburton calls for Welsh rugby to be ripped apart and dragged out of 'Stone Age'

Sam Warburton has called for 'seismic change' to bring Welsh rugby out of the Stone Ages.

The ex-Wales captain believes the game in Wales needs the biggest reform in its history in order to function properly once again and avoid anymore embarrassments like the maiden loss to Georgia.

In his column for the Times, Warburton took aim at the many problems in Welsh rugby that have led to perhaps its most humiliating defeat. In particular, he called for substantial and real change in the governance structure, while he also questioned what could be done with the player pathway system and dysfunctional relationship between the Welsh Rugby Union and the four regions.
