Jac Morgan says Wales are making progress against the strongest teams in international rugby, even after another heavy defeat to South Africa in the Nations Championship. The Wales captain believes the team is moving in the right direction despite the difficult scorelines against elite opposition.
Wales were also well beaten by Argentina in the competition, results that underline the scale of the challenge facing Steve Tandy’s side. Even so, Morgan’s view is that performances are starting to show signs the gap is narrowing between Wales and the world’s leading nations.
The campaign has not been without positives. Wales also produced a 39-24 win during the tournament, offering evidence that the team can deliver stronger displays as it continues to develop under Tandy.
Morgan’s comments reflect a wider message of patience and improvement rather than short-term judgment based only on results. After tough losses to South Africa and Argentina, Wales appear focused on turning gradual progress into more consistent performances against top-level opponents.
