🏉 Exciting times for Welsh rugby as the team gears up for a thrilling autumn campaign! Steve Tandy is leading the squad with fresh faces and renewed energy, ready to face Argentina, Japan, New Zealand, and South Africa at the iconic Principality Stadium in Cardiff.
🎯 After ending their 18-Test losing streak against Japan this summer, there’s high hope for another victory against the Brave Blossoms. However, the team faces a significant challenge as legendary number eight Taulupe Faletau has been sidelined due to injury. Stepping into the breach is Olly Cracknell from Leicester Tigers, bringing new blood into the lineup.
🆕 This week, the squad convened at the Vale Hotel, including five uncapped players. Among them is Alex Mann, returning after his Wales debut in the 2023 Six Nations, and Danny Southworth, set to earn his first cap. With just under two weeks until their opener against Argentina, the team is working hard to clinch that first win of the series.
✨ With Jac Morgan set to captain, and talent like Tomos Williams and Callum Sheedy back from injuries, it’s shaping up to be an exciting and testing period for our Wales squad.
Stay tuned for more updates and let’s show our support as our boys take on the world’s best this autumn! 🏆🌍 #WelshRugby #AutumnInternationals #TeamWales
