Wales Feeling The Heat in Japan 24 to 19 game nearly over
No heat breaks Wales are losing after leading in the first half they were ahead at half time 7 to 19 the spectators were fanning themselves it was that hot there.

There was a reason Eddie Jones insisted on a 2pm kickoff.
But we’d struggle in the Rugby Europe Championship at the moment.
Can’t use the heat as an excuse.
Sides used to losing find ways to lose.
And after sitting pretty Wales certainly did that.
..
Georgia play Ireland later( it’s on Rugby Pass TV) and they have more players missing than us.
Should be interesting.

@TheSirfurryanimalWales Eighteenth loss in succession it's sad to see Wales losing all the time, these were teams we used to run rings around.
I won't be watching Ireland playing Georgia, I will be watching Wales Women's team playing the Netherlands though, that should be good, their under-rated they might full off a shock win.

9 and 10 seemed clueless, a little sympathy for Costellow, he hasn't played much following injury last year.
Neither half back are known for their kicking game, but that seemed to be the gameplan, very poorly executed.
Two poor sides in a game lacking skill and guile.
Proof if any were needed that Wales don't deserve greater representation on the Lions tour.
It speaks volumes that we have an interim coach on a summer tour.
The WRU are a shambles, and have been for a number of years.

@Mindfulness Japan were powerful in the second half the winning margin could of been a lot more.
Yes your right about the representation on the Lions tour, Wales have a problem maybe Rugby isn't played so much in the schools the WRU will have to scratch their heads and get this problem sorted.
Wales looked exhausted second half it was 40C everyone in the Stands were fanning themselves, I'm sure that favoured Japan.

@senghenydd go to any rugby club on a Sunday morning in the Winter and there will be kids games from under eight to under 16 taking place.
No shortage of kids playing.
We are finally paying the penalty for ripping up our club based system twenty odd years ago.
Top players spread across several teams playing against each other every week…..now they are in four teams,rarely playing and going nowhere.
I don’t see how things are going to change.
Short of allowing the players to go to England,Ireland France without penalty.
It works for Argentina.

@TheSirfurryanimalWales I played Rugby in school up to the age of 16 when I left school, however during my time in the school team our team went down in the then league we were un-disciplined it mattered to me, I was a team player most of the team simply wanted to score tries, instead we conceded tries the problems looking back could of easily been sorted out I think they improved years later with different players.
I enjoyed watching the Snelling Sevens they stopped the Seven's in 1995 what a shame, the Arm's Park was nearly empty in the 1990s it was a competition which lost people's interest I can't understand why, it was club rugby at it's best losing that competition was a shame, it was sixteen of the best teams in Wales competing in an afternoon, I think the WRU should bring that competition back it would help club rugby and the Welsh International side in my opinion watching that competition a coach could see in a afternoon the best players who would stand out and be picked to play for Wales.
I still feel the heat out in Japan had a part in Wales losing the match they seemed to lose their energy in the second half whereas Japan were all powerful, I think Japan will do very well I'll be watching their performances with interest.
