🏉 Exciting times for Welsh rugby fans! As the autumn tests approach, Steve Tandy is gearing up for his first game as head coach against Argentina at the Principality Stadium. With seven players pretty much set to start, there’s still plenty of anticipation over who will fill the remaining spots.
Key players like Dewi Lake and Jac Morgan are expected to be pivotal due to their power and leadership. Meanwhile, Tomos Williams, if recovered from his toe injury, and the electrifying Louis Rees-Zammit are also likely starters.
In the pack, Adam Beard and Dafydd Jenkins are strong contenders, with Aaron Wainwright stepping up in the absence of Taulupe Faletau. But, with several positions still undecided, there’s a fierce competition for places.
One of Tandy’s main challenges is settling on a number 10 to steer the team forward. After trying several options post-World Cup 2023, it’s crucial to find a playmaker to lead Wales into the Six Nations and beyond.
In the midfield, Tandy and attack coach Matt Sherratt are aiming to find the right balance to get the team firing. Nick Tompkins’ outstanding form makes him a leading candidate, but eyes are also on intriguing options like Joe Hawkins and Louie Hennessey.
With a formidable line-up of matches against Argentina, Japan, New Zealand, and South Africa, the road ahead isn’t easy. However, this series is all about progress rather than a clean sweep of victories. The team will be looking to solidify their squad, especially in the back three where depth is a luxury.
Blair Murray and Jacob Beetham are battling it out for a spot, while the return of Rio Dyer adds excitement to the mix. Keep an eye out to see who will bring that X-factor to the field! 🌟
It’s time to rally behind our team and see what this autumn has in store. Let’s go, Wales! 🐲🎉
