The Scarlets look likely to sign Argentina flanker Tomas Lezana from the Western Force, according to the BBC.

Capped 39-times for Los Pumas, Lezana signed for the Australian Super Rugby side, the Western Force, last December, by way of the Jaguares. The 6’2, 104kg back row played 46 times for the Argentinian Super Rugby side, who were left in limbo due to the pandemic.

The 27-year-old will help fill the gap left by the departing  Jac Morgan and as potential cover for injuries to Josh Macleod (Achilles) and James Davies (concussion).

    Jim, Andy, Fez and Shanks react to the 2021 Lions squad:

    Last night Glenn Delaney stood down as head coach.

    “Today I announce that I will be leaving the Scarlets,” Delaney said on www.scarlets.wales. “It has been a great pleasure to coach this fantastic club.

    “It has been the most difficult of seasons with the global pandemic creating many challenging issues that the staff and team here have dealt with incredibly well. I leave with great memories of two wonderful years out West.

    “We have enjoyed some great times, which in the first year we were able to share with the supporters being there.

    “I won’t forget the European games away to Toulon, Bayonne and London Irish where the travelling support was simply unbelievable. Our Champions Cup match against Bath this season was one that I know the travelling faithful would have loved.

    “I know that the club is in great hands moving forward into the new season and I wish it nothing but the best.

    “I want to say a huge thank you to the great staff and the outstanding playing group here at the Scarlets and of course the supporters. I’ve loved every day working with you all.”

    Dai Flanagan takes over on an interim basis as head coach and will lead the team for the remainder of the Rainbow Cup.

    Rassie Erasmus wades into heated debate over Jaden Hendrikse antics

    Irish media accurately covered the Taoiseach’s visits to the EU president to reach agreement on ‘not returning to the borders of the past’. The Brexidiots had not even considered this nor had they considered any part of what Brexit might look at.

    Morons like Nigel Farage were screaming ‘Traitors’ demanding that article 50 would be triggered. Once it was triggered a two year count down was started to a point where the UK could have been thrown into the World Market only under WTO rules. All the EU had to do was wait and Brexit would eat up its opposition.


    Brexidiots talked tough and lied that the EU had more than the UK to lose. But it was all shallow lies ofcourse. All the EU had to do was wait, the UK had put the gun to its own head which would go off at a certain known point in time. The EU had won the negotiation before it had even started.

    So we had extensions, more UK tough talking, capitulations, changes of Government and PMs everything you’d expect from a disfunctional state. Farage and Tice who claimed before the vote that ‘No-one is talking about leaving the Customs Union or Single market’ were now screaming about traitors unless the hardest Brexit was not enforced. May, Johnson, Davis, Rabb, Frost etc etc all devoured not by traitorous insiders but by the ridiculousness of their own project.


    That is why all Ireland had to do was add the border as a pre requisite. Even Unionists concurred that the EU put a lot more effort into fixing the issues on the ground than the UK. Proving once again how completely unfit you are to Govern. The man who thinks Ireland are the ‘parasites of the world’ gives his opinion on Ireland? Do F**k off f@sc1st Tommie!


    But men like Farage and those he represents cashed in big: the grifter made a killing for his cronies before the voting had even stopped at the expense of ordinary people.
