Players’ agent Derwyn Jones has warned Welsh professional rugby’s future is on the line whether Saturday’s Six Nations game against England goes ahead or not.
The match could be cancelled as Welsh players weigh up whether to strike over contract issues, the 60-cap rule and their lack of a voice in decisions that affect them. They were meeting at the Vale Resort on Wednesday after a Professional Rugby Board meeting in Cardiff.
But Jones, who has been representing leading players for close on two decades and has a significant number of his clients in the Wales squad, insists there are hugely important matters that go beyond even the immediate concerns.
