Sosbans and Sidesteps

The home of Scarlets supporters and community rugby in West Wales. We like to delve into the nitty gritty of Scarlets games, the community game and the pathway on a regular basis. We analyse games, talk to players, chat with coaches and get the fans point of view - we may also discuss other weird stuff as well.

The end of season awards

We pick out our player of the season, breakthrough player, moment of the season, most entertaining player and most entertaining game.</p> <p>It is a packed show with plenty of other talking points.</p>

<p>We still have plenty of action and games to decide promotion places at the end of this season - Division 2 West in particular goes down to the wire with one of three sides able to secure the last promotion spot this weekend.</p> <p><br></p> <p>It has been a fantastic but turbulent season - the end of season review in the coming weeks should be epic.</p>

The one where the community game takes over
<p>There was a little bit of Scarlets news to cover but this week was mainly about the community game - and there is a lot to cover with some promotion spots looking like they will be decided on the final day of the season.</p>

<p>A disappointing end to the season but like any roller coaster, you remember some bits more than others!</p> <p>The Glasgow game gets discussed, as does those leaving and the coaching change arounds.</p> <p>The community game is where things are getting really interesting with Narberth pushing Pontypool close and Pembrokeshire teams battling at the top of all 3 lower divisions. With a couple of weeks of games left, they are all going down to the wire!</p> <p><br></p>

Getting interesting at the end of the season!
<p>This week we discussed the comings and goings at PYS plus the performance against Glasgow - what we can take from that game and what not to read in to it.</p> <p>The community game is really where the action is over the coming weeks, with the back log of fixtures making the next few weeks vitally important for Pembrokeshire sides.</p> <p>It is all starting to get tasty!</p>

<p>Big M takes the ship for a solo run through the happy waters of the European challenge cup, stopping to swim in the clear waters of running rugby, keeping the ball in hand and disciplined rugby. He sails through the league fixture against Glasgow before heading for home through the uncertain waters of the community game and then back home to the mother in law.</p> <p>Enjoy your journey with Captain Martyn before he gives himself a promotion and a bigger ship!</p>

The one where we marched to the quarter final
<p>So much stuff to cover this weeks - the womens finals for HWest and Whitland, local rugby is starting to hot up, junior finals and transfer news. Then we talk about a pretty average game last week and where things need to improve for the quarter final game this Friday.</p> <p><br></p> <p>We did have a few issues with signal and clarity this week so please bare with us - there were a couple of bits that we just couldn&#39;t edit out.</p>
