Rugby World Cup 2023 – Warren Gatland and Ken Owens name young Wales talents

Wales Rugby World Cup team coach Warren Gatland and new captain Ken Owens have named the team’s young players who have the potential to become breakthrough stars. The Six Nations this year have unknown prospects for Wales after a disappointing 2022 that saw particularly upsetting losses to Italy and Georgia. But with Gatland back at the helm as Wayne Pivak’s replacement and a plethora of young talent emerging, there’s plenty to be excited about.

“I look forward to working with all these players without limits, Gatland told Mirror Sport at the Guinness Six Nations presentation when asked if he sees any debutants in particular getting big opportunities. Obviously someone like Mason Grady came on the scene young, a talented player with a lot of reps around him and there’s real competition in midfield and that’s a good thing.”

Cardiff center Grady survived a breakthrough season at Arms Park despite making his debut for the club back in November 2020. The 20-year-old – younger brother of former Wales international Corey Allen – is rivaled by the likes of Ospreys duo Joe Hawkins (one cap) and Keiran Williams (no cap), but opportunities are there to earn a spot as a substitute for the likes of George North and Nick Tompkins.

There’s also a message for some of the players who missed out on a team that just because you missed [it] doesn’t mean you’re out of contention in the future, Gatland added. Someone like [two-time British and Irish Lions tourist] Jonathan Davis, who has been playing very well for the Scarlets in recent weeks.

The 59-year-old went on to stress his desire for balance “over the next 10 months or so, hinting at the need to test some of the less experienced in preparation for the Rugby World Cup 2023 in September. Another player who fits those criteria has caught the attention of Owens after some inspiring performances in the Premier League of late.

“Dafydd Jenkins,” the captain replied when asked who the current team’s “rising star” is. He is a young second-row player who is playing in a very difficult league in this second-row position. He came in the fall and made an impression in the week he was in.

“Got his first cap and I think he was an outstanding Exeter player. He went to South Africa and put on a big game there against a team like the Bulls and was consistently one of their star performers at a young age. And, obviously, he was a captain. On the other hand, he’s a huge talent.”

Jenkins, a Bridgend native, confirmed the old adage that age is just a number when he captained Exeter in a league game against the London Irish when he was just 19 in November. Just a week later, Lock earned his first cap for Wales, albeit in that crushing defeat at home to Georgia in the fall.

Despite their combined ages being just over one Alan Wyn Jones (37), both Grady and Jenkins may just be the tip of a spear in a wave of fresh Welsh talent. And the timing could not be better: the team is desperately trying to start a new life in a turbulent period for both players and managers.

The first round of the GUINNESS SIX NATIONS 2023 begins on February 4th, with Wales hosting Ireland in the first head-to-head match of the series before England hosting their Scottish rivals in the Calcutta Cup battle.

Former Australian coach Dave Rennie says his fans still supported him

After being fired as Wallabies coach, Dave Rennie said on Wednesday that he still has the support of the team. His replacement, Eddie Jones, laid out his plans for a more attacking take on rugby from a “super fit” Australian team.

Rennie, a New Zealander, took over from Michael Cheika at the end of 2019. But he only managed to win five of the 14 tests he took in 2018. On Monday, he was sacked and replaced by the former England manager. After the unexpected dismissal, Rennie claimed to have received hundreds of messages of support from players, coaches, administrators and others.

Rennie thanks his supporters

“In his first speech after being fired, he said: The support has been huge. He appreciates the over 500 messages I have received. I liked being part of the team. willing to learn and willing to put in a lot of effort.”

According to Rennie, The Wallabies staff, some of the best in the world, played a huge role in creating a quality atmosphere and increasing the depth of the playing group. An injury-ridden team ended a tumultuous tour of Europe on a bright note with a victory over Wales under the guidance of a two-time Super Rugby champion coach.

“I would like to thank the Australian rugby community for their support of the team over the past three years and for all the encouraging remarks, whether our paths crossed at meetings, on the training ground or at airports across the country.”

Rennie connected to Kobe Steelers

A highly respected Rennie was linked with a move to the Japanese team Kobe Steelers. After coaching from 2001 to 2005, during which he led the Wallabies to the Rugby World Cup final, Jones will take charge for the second time on 29 January. Because Johnny Wilkinson scored in the last second. In that match on home soil, they were defeated by England. PA Eddie Jones is Rennie’s successor.

The 62-year contract will allow him to work at the 2027 World Cup in Australia. But he said that there are still unfinished projects. To be completely honest, I never really thought about the prospect of coaching Australia. When it happened for the first time in 2005. It was a difficult period. Jones told reporters before being sacked by England in December.

You educate your people when they are taken from you. But you move on and just do it before paying attention to what you’re doing again. I haven’t coached Australia for 18 years. But during this time I coached the rugby teams of South Africa, Japan and England. I lost and now I am training my nation, he continued. Jones, a well-known strict warden, said he was committed to improving the situation in Australia and that he had concrete suggestions on how to do so.

Wallabies coach Rennie set to head overseas

Rugby is essentially a sport with goals. despite a dramatic victory over Wales in Cardiff, the Wallabies avoided their worst season since 1958. The RFU sacked former England manager Eddie Jones after the Nations’ Autumn Series, sparking speculation about Rennie’s management of the Australian team. According to media reports, Rennie is close to dispelling all rumors and putting an end to any doubts about his future.

Rennie made it clear that he wasn’t going to sit back and wait until November next year ahead of his end-of-season tour of Europe last year. The problem, according to Rennie, is that coaches around the world need to make decisions about the upcoming season now rather than wait until next November.

Dave Rennie remarked

“There will come a time when I will have to decide what I will do after I turn 23, very early next year. At this stage, everyone is under pressure. Rugby at international level is very intense, which happens a lot. I know we had games that we had to win. But we didn’t, so ultimately the blame lies with me.”

Honestly, I never thought about the prospect of coaching Australia again. When it first happened in 2005, it was a difficult period, Jones told reporters, before he was sacked from England in December.

When your position as coach of your country ends, you leave and simply continue before returning to your current tasks. Since I last led Australia 18 years ago, I have also led South Africa, Japan and England. It’s pretty humiliating since I’ve played in both winning and losing Rugby World Cup finals and now I’m coaching my own country, he continued.

“Jones, a known tough taskmaster, has stated that he has the motivation to make a difference in Australia and has concrete suggestions on how the team should do it.”

Rennie said Wallabies had made significant progress

Prior to his abrupt dismissal, Dave Rennie believed he was supported by the players and staff and that the Wallabies had made significant progress during his three years in office. The New Zealander made the announcement on Wednesday, his first announcement since Eddie Jones suddenly took over as manager ahead of the Rugby World Cup in September, replacing him.

Rennie stated, I regret not being able to complete my contract as I promised back in 2019. However, I leave knowing that the coaches and the entire playing group are on my side.

“In my opinion, over the past three years we have made significant changes both on and off the field, and this is the result of a huge effort put in by great people. The Rugby World Cup is less than nine months away. I wish Eddie, the staff and the entire team the best of luck for this significant year.”

The fact behind his termination

Rennie’s winning percentage of 38% ranks last among all Wallabies coaches over 30+ Test matches. This was a major factor in the tough decision of Rugby Australia. Rennie took the job in the midst of Covid-19 restrictions. But his supporters say he was unfairly punished. They also claim that due to injuries, the team has lost many of its important players. On his previous tour, they defeated Scotland and Wales, but suffered a five-point loss to France, Ireland and Italy.

There has been some discussion about whether Rennie’s training methods are to blame for many of these injuries. The consistently terrible behavior of the world’s No. 6 team on the pitch was another negative factor as RA executives considered options for Rennie’s coaching.

Jones serves as a coach

They went to Jones, who led Australia to the 2003 Rugby World Cup final. Then he made an impression with Japan at the 2015 World Cup. And finally took England to the final of the 2019 RWC by defeating New Zealand in the semi-finals.

Jones, who has a five-year contract, will start at the end of January. Before choosing his support staff. He will interview other assistants. Dan McKellar is one of them. He left his position as head coach of the Brumbies to work with Rennie in what many considered a stepping stone to the top.

According to Rennie, The Wallabies staff, some of the best in the world, played a huge role in creating a quality atmosphere and increasing the depth of the playing group. An injury-ridden team ended a tumultuous tour of Europe on a bright note with a victory over Wales under the guidance of a two-time Super Rugby champion coach.
