PRE-MATCH REPORT WALES vs IRELAND GUINNESS SIX NATIONS 2021 HEAD TO HEAD - None of the last seven Six Nations clashes between Wales and Ireland have seen the away side pick up a win (D1, L6), Ireland’s win in Cardiff in 2013 the last time the visitors picked up a win in this fixture. - Wales have won their last three Six Nations games at home against Ireland, this after winning just two of their initial seven Six Nations meetings in Cardiff (L5); it is Wales’ best run at home against Ireland in the Five or Six Nations since winning eight in a row from 1969 to 1983. - Ireland have won each of their last four Test meetings with Wales overall – as many as they’d won in their previous 12 clashes (D1, L7) – their best run since 2001-2004 (W5). - Neither side has come from behind at halftime to win in this fixture in the Six Nations since 2012 when Wales defeated Ireland despite trailing by five points at the break; Wales did pick up a draw against Ireland in 2016 after trailing at halftime though. - Wales raced into a 16-0 first-half lead the last time they faced Ireland in Cardiff in the Six Nations – it was their biggest halftime lead against Ireland in any Test match since 1920 (17-0). COMMON STATISTICS - No one scored more tries than Ireland in the 2020 edition of the Six Nations (17, same as France), four of those were launched from the back of a scrum, Wales (2) were the only other side to score multiple tries following a scrum. - Ireland averaged 8.8 entries into the opposition 22 in the Six Nations last year, more than any other side, while only France (3.2) scored more points per 22 entry than Wales (2.6) during last year’s tournament. - Ireland scored seven tries in the final quarter of their matches in the 2020 Six Nations, more than any other side, while Wales scored the joint second most in that period (6, level with England). - Ireland scored four tries originating from the scrum in the Six Nations last year, more than any other nation; in fact, Wales were the only other side to score multiple tries when beginning a sequence of possession from a scrum (2). - Wales averaged the most carries per game (127) of any team in the Six Nations last year, while Ireland averaged the second most (126); Ireland recorded the most running metres per game of any side (738, Wales 3rd most – 690). ©Copyright Stats Perform 2020. All rights reserved. PRE-MATCH REPORT WALES vs IRELAND GUINNESS SIX NATIONS 2021 WALES STATISTICS - Wales have lost their last two home games in the Six Nations, the last time they lost three on the bounce at home was 2002-03; in fact overall they’ve lost their last four games in the Championship, their worst streak since 2006-07 (L5). - Wales won 62 of their 70 lineouts in the 2020 Six Nations, their 89% success rate was the best of any nation in last year’s tournament. - Wales made 89 handling errors in the 2020 Six Nations, 22 more than any other side, including more knock-ons (35) than anyone else. - George North has scored 20 tries in the Six Nations, two more would take him level with fellow Welshman Shane Williams (22) as the Championship’s second top try scorer (since 2000), behind only Brian O’Driscoll (26); North has scored a brace of tries against Ireland once previously, doing so in Cardiff during the 2017 Six Nations. - Of players to attempt more than one kick at goal in last year’s Six Nations Welsh duo Leigh Halfpenny (100%, 6/6) and Dan Biggar (94%, 16/17) boasted the two best goal kicking success rates. IRELAND STATISTICS - On the road Ireland have lost their last three games in a row in the Six Nations, the third time they have endured such a streak in the competition (since 2000, also 2013-14 & 2016-17), they’ve never lost four consecutive away games in the Championship. - Ireland scored three tries directly from their maul in the 2020 Six Nations, no other nation scored more than one try in that fashion; Andy Farrell’s men also gained the most metres from their maul (81) while Wales gained the fewest (21). - Ireland boasted a ruck success rate of 98% in the 2020 Six Nations, the best rate of any team, while they were one of two sides with an average ruck speed under three seconds (2.1, Italy also 2.1). - Ireland conceded just 41 penalties in the Six Nations last year, fewer than any other side, while they were also awarded the most penalties of any nation (56). - Ireland will be with Jacob Stockdale, who was the only player to run with the ball for more than 500 metres in last year’s Six Nations (541), while he also made the most linebreaks (9) and second most tackle breaks (11, behind Jake Polledri – 14). ©Copyright Stats Perform 2020.

  • Captaincy and Leadership in Rugby Union
    Captaincy and Leadership in Rugby Union HELP, Second Year List of contents 1. Introduction 2. The Four Captains 3. The Views of The Captains 4. Comparing and Contrasting the Captain’s Views 5. Interim Conclusions: Part One 6. Quali - Quantitative Survey 7. Interim Conclusions: Part Two 8. Leadership in Life 9. Overall Conclusions and Learnings 10. What Have I Learned? 11. Appendices 1. Introduction In this project, I am going to either prove or disprove two hypotheses: • firstly, that the position of a rugby player will make a difference to what they think a great captain is; and • secondly, that for a captain to be great, they do not have to be the best in their position. I will prove or disprove these hypotheses through the following research: • conducting semi-quantitative surveys • reading and analysing 4 great rugby captains’ autobiographies (qualitative research) and their views on leadership and captaincy • and finally wider online research. Rugby is a sport and subject that I am very passionate about, and I aspire to play at the highest level. Currently I play for Hampton U13 Bs and my club (Twickenham) first team. I find captaincy interesting as I think it takes great skill and certain characteristics to be a good captain let alone a country-leading world-famous great captain. My personal experiences of rugby captaincy have been periodically with my school team and regularly for my club. My personal view of rugby captaincy based on my experiences is that you need to be the hardest-working player on the pitch at all times – you may not be the most skilled, but you can be the hardest-working, and respect from your team- mates and from your coaches comes from this work ethic.

A heart-wrenching and ultimately life-affirming story that demonstrates the power of love to see us through the darkest of times. When Holocaust survivor Lily Ebert was liberated in 1945, a Jewish-American soldier gave her a banknote on which he’d written ‘Good luck and happiness’. And when her great-grandson, Dov, decided to use social media to track down the family of the GI in 2020, 96-year-old Lily found herself making headlines around the world. Lily had promised herself that if she survived Auschwitz she would tell everyone the truth about the camp.
