Exciting times are ahead for Wales Rugby! With just 16 months until the Rugby World Cup, Steve Tandy has his work cut out as he kickstarts the summer with a non-cap match against the Barbarians at Twickenham. This is the start of a journey, culminating in a showdown with World Champions South Africa in Durban.
One of the big questions on everyone’s mind: How can Wales make the most of Louis Rees-Zammit’s electrifying speed and finishing skills? While he shone at full-back during the Six Nations, debates continue about whether he should return to the wing, where his try-scoring ability could truly shine.
Tandy faces choices on how to introduce fresh talent like Exeter’s Kane James and Harlequins’ Bryn Bradley. James could add vital flair to the pack, but ensuring he’s ready for the international stage is crucial. Meanwhile, Bradley’s powerful presence in the centre offers exciting possibilities.
And who will wear the captain’s armband? Is it the robust Aaron Wainwright at No. 8, Morgan, or Lake? Or perhaps dynamic newcomer Dafydd Jenkins?
Decisions, decisions! Let’s see what Tandy has in store for the summer matches and how these choices will set the stage for the upcoming World Cup.
