Sam Warburton’s fresh perspective on Welsh rugby! 🏉
The former Wales captain, once a big supporter of trimming the country’s rugby teams, is now having second thoughts. After hearing out different perspectives over recent months, Sam admits he’s unsure of the best way forward for Welsh rugby. He’s identified that emphasis on a strong youth pathway is crucial, and thankfully, it’s already gaining momentum! 🌟
Warburton also emphasises the need for patience from Welsh fans. With the national team targeting a better performance in this year’s Six Nations after a challenging few years, Sam’s hopeful they can secure a couple of wins, especially at home against Italy or Scotland.
His brother, Ben, who’s got the insider scoop as a physio for the national under-19s and 20s, believes some promising talents are emerging. This gives Sam hope that the Welsh squad will soon be a force to be reckoned with again. 💪
Reflecting on recent games, Sam believes that the team’s performance against New Zealand, rather than South Africa, hints at their potential. He stresses the importance of a strong Wales for global rugby, highlighting the need for top teams like Wales, Japan, and Georgia to improve their game.
Let’s rally behind our boys and fill those seats at the Principality! The world needs a strong Welsh team. Cymru am byth! 🏴☠️🏆
