Close<\/a>\u2022\u00a0Joined ESPN in 2011 Wales captain Jac Morgan will miss the rest of the autumn internationals after suffering a dislocated shoulder in their defeat to Argentina on Sunday<\/a>.<\/p>\n Morgan, who was capped twice by the British & Irish Lions in the summer, suffered the injury as he scored a try in the second half of a match Wales went on to lose 52-28.<\/p>\n It was Wales’ first match under new coach Steve Tandy, with Morgan captain, but he will now sit out their next three Tests against Japan, New Zealand and South Africa.<\/p>\n “It’s not looking good for Jac,” Tandy said. “It is a massive blow. He’s a world-class player, he’s huge for us and we know how much he loves playing for Wales and how he leads the team.<\/p>\n “I’ve seen him in the changing rooms, he’s devastated. Ultimately, it’s just about Jac now recovering.”<\/p>\n Up until the 55th minute when Morgan was forced off, he’d put in an immense shift.<\/p>\n – Wales vs. Argentina: Steve Tandy era begins with record defeat<\/a> “Jac was outstanding and the try he scored was unbelievable from that distance,” Tandy said. “It’s a blow. Not only just the player, but the man. With this group, we spoke about having tough moments in this journey.”<\/p>\n Wales will now assess who to call up in Morgan’s place.<\/p>\n “We’ll definitely call someone up and will discuss that after assessing things in the next 24 hours,” Tandy said.<\/p>\n “We’ve got some really good players. Tommy [Reffell] is an outstanding international, playing well for Leicester while Harri Deaves has been unbelievable for the Ospreys for a consistent period. So we’ve got options.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Tom HamiltonNov 10, 2025, 05:55 PM Close\u2022\u00a0Joined ESPN in 2011\u2022\u00a0Covered two Olympics, a pair of Rugby World Cups…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":275302,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[567],"tags":[64,63,760,85],"class_list":{"0":"post-275301","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-rugby","8":"tag-au","9":"tag-australia","10":"tag-rugby","11":"tag-sports"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/275301","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=275301"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/275301\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/275302"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=275301"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=275301"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=275301"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
