About this listen

This week on The Attacking Scrum, Ged is joined by rugby writer Iestyn Thomas to react to a challenging start to Steve Tandy’s reign as Wales head coach, as his side are brushed aside by Argentina in his first match in charge. Was it all bad news, or were there some signs of progress amid the defeat? Ged and Iestyn break down the performance, from defensive structure and discipline to the new coaching approach, and ask whether Tandy’s ideas are beginning to take shape. They also discuss the devastating injury to Jac Morgan, what his absence means for leadership and selection, and who might step up ahead of the Japan game. From tactics and team identity to player development and pathways, this episode takes a balanced look at where Welsh rugby stands after Week One of the Steve Tandy era and what needs to happen next.
