Evans blames League for Wales’ Cup flop

WALES lock Ian Evans believes the Magners League is hampering Welsh rugby and he has demanded a wholesale change in attitude towards the competition.

Wales and Ireland have both crashed out of the World Cup before the quarter-finals and Evans is convinced the lack of intensity in the Celtic competition is a major factor.

The Wales players have been invited to contribute to a wide-ranging review into the World Cup failure and the structure of elite rugby.
