You are quite right, Gats does need to get his weight down before the world cup, Wyn could do with a few pounds less as well.

Wyn was top class in the World Cup and on Lions tour but he was much fitter and leaner then. He's bulked up too much in my opinion, mind you he's very strong have you seen the WRU clip of him lifting 250kg? I think Gats will get his weight down and be more mobile before World Cup.

Wales across the board lacks tight five forwards that have an all round skill set. Poor carriers. Any other country would have turned Carré and Brown into monsters.

But Genge is terrific player...his work rate and threat is now the bar to reach tbh.... your spot on Chips |

in today rugby, be only a good scrummager is not enough...unfortunately WJ is extremely slow for modern rugby ritmo...of course he needs more time to find his form and ritmo

Maybe I'm being harsh on Wyn on reflection, I see the other 6N LH props like Genge, Porter, Fischetti, Schoeman, Baille offering so much around the park, as well as being solid in the scrums. Wales just don't have that sort of guy. Wyn is a good scrummager, but he got tumbled in the tight (missed 5 tackles) and isn't a threat at the breakdown. |

As an incidental point, Wyn is quite a way from the Wyn of 2019.

So the refs were alright then? Got the critical call right in your opinion? Not a natural position for the forearm and as the video ref pointed out the fist was clenched which means it wasn’t a fend. Poor call, refs were equally bad for both teams in my opinion.

Initially I agreed with that, forearm to throat - but on the replays Bruno had his arm up in that position at that height to fend 2 previous players and Wyn runs into it. I whinged like a little girl when sexton milked a card doing that to us (albeit with the ball and running into a shoulder) so no complaints from me that it wasn’t a red.
