So ..the second set of matches get played over the next few weeks. I have not seen that any of this is on TV, premiership rugby has a few games on but none of the Welsh teams.So dissapointing...missed chance to see new and up and coming players.

Two matches on Friday

Scarlets v Saracens (Fri) - http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/rugby-union/38730641

Win for the Scarlets

Sale Sharks v Cardiff Blues - http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/rugby-union/38730649

Sharks have some experience in their side ...except Cory Allan... lot of edge of squad players.
Sharks are favourites

Saturday
Ospreys v Bristol
at the Brewery Field

Interesting match ..but no teams yet

Sunday
Dragons v Newcastle

Newcastle will want to expose new players could be a W for the Dragons .

With all the challenge cup matches and the Anglo-Welsh, there's a whole lot of Welsh rugby no one gets to see. Pretty annoying. Especially when you remember how good the Anglo-Welsh coverage was on the BBC (before it became a development comp).
