Wales losing run extends to 18 defeats after late capitulation against Japan

If Cymru ever win again they'll have to have an open-topped bus for the team to celebrate.

Sod education and health, the only thing that matters at the next senedd election is turning this s-show around. Hope the loss will teach us to not try winning with homegrown players. Let’s import some New Zealand and South Africans like the Irish and Scots and take it from there.

When I thought we couldn't get lower, this happens. 19-7 up and we lose again. You cannot blame the conditions. It affected Japan too. Wales were in control most of the match and made so many schoolboy errors. Lineouts missed or overthrown. What an embarrassing display. These are professional players right? Sorry, but when you have clear chances and fuff them allowing the opposition to regroup deserve all the ridicule. And we and they will get it. How many times did Wales gather the lineout ball, not pop it down to players waiting , only to get held up by Japan resulting in a penalty? I counted two times where we were in a good position to score a try What about the placekicking. Terrible. And Keiran Hardy. What the hell was he doing? When it's Wales ball, fed in, it comes out, you don't wait but dig it out as a scum half, not allow the opposition to push on causing yet another penalty. It was doge numerous times to Wales. Are we incapable of learning? The first half we were in total control. But we're slow physically and dare it say it, mentally too. Our play was so one dimensional. I call it the fiddlers bow. Lateral. Back and forth like headless chickens. No line breaks. Nothing. Blair Murray did try but he rarely got the ball. We have the sad situation where a Japan side also in transition rated poor have piled on more mystery. We now have lost 18 matches in a row. And we wonder why only two Welshmen were picked for the Lions tour. Only one now due to injury. Wales Matt Sherratt and fellow coaches can only do so much. It's the players who take the field. I feel Welsh rugby is in its death throes. Harrowing to watch being a fan who craves for success. The WRU have a lot to answer. They are the equivalent of Welsh Labour in my eyes. They wasted all the success we had and build on a foundation of sand now being eroded away leaving a void and Wales is slipping into a sinkhole of despair. Where do we go from here? I genuinely don't know. Matt Sherratt tenure will be up soon. Who would want the job when the same problems will still be there. I think we need a clear out at the top with the WRU. Top down. Our regions need to be cut to three. Who and what is another debate. Some prefer a return to the old club system, but that didn't bare fruit internationally seeing we didn't win any tournaments for 18 years until regionalism. Dark days ahead.

Decent first half performance but a pretty limp second half one. We look so low on confidence, and lack leadership in key areas. Massive 2nd Test awaits.

Well talk about disappointing. Taking a lead into the second half that would have seen most tier one teams push on. Cymru couldn't even manage to threaten the hosts try line for the next 40 minutes. Credit to Japan they wanted to play 15 man rugby and succeeded. Cymru couldn't even string more than a few phases together without making an unforced error or lacked any penetration and after Dewi Lake went off our line out completely disintegrated. Some of the selections for this tour have to be called into question. Along with tactics. Whether it was down to the Japanese defence or our inability to get the ball past the number 10. We lacked any go forward ball. Our defence by the backs was practically nonexistent and it seemed like they just didn't want to tackle. Where as the Japanese played really well and wanted to stretch our defence with some excellent offloads and speed of thought.

So the Woke Rugby Union lose again. I'm actually hoping they get to 20 losses so the 5 English now running/ruining the governing body are removed. Whether they are simply incompetent or part of the initial sabotage plan is irrelevant.

Stop paying them professional wages until they can play like professionals. Pay them by results.

One major problem with Cymru is they are inclined to relax and be off their guard when they are ahead. Also, opposing teams tend to play like shyte in the first half which gives Cymru a false sense of superiority but then come back in the second half, hammer us and steal the game. TACTICS.

Thank goodness for Gerwyn Price, the only hero Cymru has at the moment. Da iawn Gerwyn. We are proud of you.
