Average Rating: out of 5 stars

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - DO NOT BUY THIS DVD
The content of this dvd is absolutely fine. The problem is that the second disc, the one where we actually won the slam, can't get past the menu. And that's on three separate dvd players. And after ordering a replacement disc from Amazon. Hopeless. I'm off to get a refund. Avoid!


Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Could have been good - but wasn't
As a Wales fan living in India I had all the games recorded live onto DVD and sent - thanks Mum! - but wanted to get this so that I could worship without juggling the disks... but it came and I found that the play back on both disks was jerky - every other second or so and so impossible to watch (regardless of which machine I played it on) - and the menu options on disk 2 did not work fully - so I sent the disks back. Sad - great potential content, rushed out, and not quality checked. I am sure that there is a metaphor for playing Henson at fly half there somewhere, but I can't spot it


Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Another rushed job
THere's no denying that Wales are the greatest rugby team in the world as some of the enthusiastic reviewers are stating. And there's massive enjoyment to be had watching these DVDs of another great year in the 6 nations for wales.

But we're reviewing the DVDs, not the rugby team. And the DVDs are awful. The 2005 DVD, whilst no masterpiece, is much better - hihglights of the games, presented by Ieuan Evans, chatting to Martyn Williams and talking heads from many others - it was a much better effort.

This 2008 set is rubbish. Just highlights from the game, each one introduced by some boyo voice over. It's a real dissapointment.

Look at the small print on the back and you can see that the production company ... Read More:


Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Welsh Superheroes
I pre-ordered this item because I was so tense watching the live matches that I didn't really enjoy the actual rugby. Although the dvd does what is says on the box I would have liked to have had some more interviews included. Welsh rugby is not just a game, it is a cultural festival that unites entire communities and I would have liked some of that energy to have been reflected in the dvd. This is still a good dvd though and it was definitely more fun watching knowing that we won!! It's good value for money, and oh, did I mention WE WON!!!!!


Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - SHOULD HAVE BEEN BETTER
Have to agree with the previous comments (M Came).
I feel that this DVD has been rushed to appease those loyal, yet somewhat foolish Welsh fans who will 'grab' at all things rugby.
I had based this purchase on the Welsh biased 2005 DVD, which included the Ieuan Evans chat with M Ruddock, G Williams and the majority of the welsh squad. it even included the top 10 welsh tries.
This DVD, whereas it does include the BBC1 commentary of the England/ Scotland/ Italy etc is poorly linked by a second rate Richard Burton sound-alike.
If you just want to see the scores from the games, and save yourself some money, i would download BBC iPlayer and that will suffice. If not wait for a few weeks and I'm sure that someone (BBC Wales or even ... Read More:
